What Our Fans Are Saying About Us
Mariposa Language and Learning Academy had the great fortune to work collaboratively with Music with Confidence. The enrichment programming that our students accessed was based on music, dance, and art. Their daily interactions with the amazing MWC staff not only provided enrichment, the lessons were infused with social emotional learning, reading, science, technology, and math. Our time with Music with Confidence was second to none and we look forward to our future work together to offer programming to our students!

I work in the mental health and education fields and thoroughly value the arts for all children and adults. With that being said, finding and working with the organization, Music With Confidence has been an amazing experience for our family. I have three children of my own, two of whom are in need of accommodated environments. My daughter, Scottlyn, who is only six years old, has diagnosed ADHD and anxiety. We have been working with both therapy and medication, but something was missing: the ability to interact with peers and use the skills she has been trying to gain. We had previously tried a series of dance classes at another studio when she was about four years old. This ended quite poorly, as the staff did not know how to work with neurodivergent children. Needless to say, I was hesitant to try any type of group instructed arts again even though I value the experiences. Then, my good friend mentioned that her children were going to Music With Confidence and thriving. She said that Scottlyn would be nurtured and encouraged in a compassionate environment. There was an opportunity for Scottlyn to join a camp with a renowned choreographer. I walked through my own anxiety and pursued this opportunity for my daughter. I am more than ecstatic that I followed this lead. Scottlyn was taken in by Diana, Diana's advanced therapy dog, the other girls, and choreographer to learn the moves and have a part in the recital. I was taken by surprise how ingenious this group was to help Scottlyn fit in perfectly. There was some confusion and hesitancy at times with Scottlyn, so they created a "Thinker" role for her for when she was unsure of what to do. I am continuing with the individualized sessions for Scottlyn to continue her access to the arts. Her ability to be creative and expressive in a safe and caring environment to grow her confidence and connections to herself and others is invaluable. Thank you, Music With Confidence!

Our son has been attending piano lessons with Mr. Ed Chevalley over a year. He loves his class and never wants to miss it. He is always happy after his class asking if he can have a longer session.
Our family is fortunate to have found Music with Confidence. The environment is very welcoming and positive. We look forward seeing Mrs. Diana and her therapy dog Ciara too.
Children have the opportunity to join plays and explore their talents in acting and singing. Music with Confidence offers a Summer Camp where children can learn from acting experts and other fun art activities.
I have noticed our son grow his passion for piano and music. He flourishes and gains more confidence the better he gets at playing the piano.
Thank you, Mr. Ed for your patience and amazing talent!

We enrolled our girls in Music with Confidence hoping they would get a chance to explore their interests and what they got in return was so much more. Our oldest who is 15, struggles with social situations and is very shy around new people. Jamie has helped her with guitar, learning a song she was interested in, then ultimately preformed and SANG it in front of a group of people. She has been able to make friends and overall she has had a blast! Our younger daughter who is 11, also struggles with generalized anxiety, and working with Jordan and Diana she has blossomed. She took front of the stage for the dance performance and has become a leader for some of the younger girls. We are so grateful to Music with Confidence!
Thanks,

I love MWC, the work they are doing with the children is very good, with the lessons and inviting them to participate in recitals and musicals!! Wow! It has been a fantastic experience for us as a family and my daughter liked it a lot.
This has helped my daughter feel more confident in public and her self esteem has gone up a lot.
I have another little girl who is very attentive to her sister's classes, and although she still can't take lessons because of her age. She looks very motivated, and sings, and tries to repeat what her sister does.
It has been a blessing.
