Music Natural Movement (MnM) approach has kept Dr. Emberley free from any form of injury. Every part of you is important, not just one aspect, and this quality of movement throughout life brings your music quality sounds. Her curiosity led her to develop ways to tailor that freedom for each individual student. Come see how this approach can benefit you!

I have been an active participant in natural movement culture for over three decades. Based in science, technology, kinesiology, physical therapy, exercise science, it touches all of these things and yet exists beyond them. 

Our sound is directly related to how we move: 

QUALITY MOVEMENT = QUALITY SOUND

We take the answers to the question, "what is the most natural and efficient way any human can move?" and apply it to music to allow for the fullest self-expression possible. Every part of you is directly related to the whole, and, unlike most music coaching, we leave nothing out of the party on this journey! 

Do you feel free playing? Do you feel playful? Do you always have available every sound you want? Let us unlock this with you.
