Music is for everyone!
Overview
Music Together® brings the highest quality music and movement experiences to children everywhere—and we involve the adults who love them in the magical process of development that only music can provide.
Meet Our Instructor
Kate DesBiens, CCC-SLP, is a certified speech-language pathologist and lifelong music lover. From an early age, she participated in a variety of musical activities, including choir, band, orchestra, and marching band. Studying voice, percussion, and oboe allowed her to gain a thorough understanding of musical theory and technique in addition to experiencing the joy of music.
Within speech therapy, Kate often uses music to support communication development, social engagement, and play skills in children of all ages and abilities. She is excited to combine her expertise in speech therapy with her love of music to bring new musical opportunities to the families of Easterseals. Kate believes that every child can benefit from music in their life, and she is thrilled to create an inclusive environment where families can play with music together!
