Elementary classes are held two times a week for 25 minutes.
Secondary and Post High classes are held once a week for 30-40 minutes.
Individual sessions through assessment and case study opportunities
We also have: a bell choir, two vocal performance groups, and a sing-along.
Magic moments happen daily as we watch students come alive and want to learn. We through music therapy make those moments possible!

“The bond you can create with the students at Hartvigsen is indescribably wonderful!
They LOVE coming to music. My internship changed which population I wanted to
work with. It’s safe to say that I am where I am now, working with DD, largely
due to falling in love with the students there. I wanted to continue to have
their influence in my life. You will get to work with one of the most amazing
supervisors out there. If you are on the fence at all, trust me—give it a chance.
It will change your life if you let it.” ~ Ashton Lindsay ~ 2016 Intern ~
