The piano is a temperamental instrument, which leads to the formation of absolute musical hearing. The child studying the piano will become more alert, more focused, will start memorizing much easier. The child will also acquire motor skills superior to other children, and will do more things at the same time (it's like reading in two different languages and writing at the computer at the same time). When we practice the piano, we do more things at a time: we read the score (in different keys for the two hands) and move our fingers and hands independently of each other. This will lead to a multifunctional development of the child. We will learn together how to read a musical score, how to memorize it, how we can master the emotions on stage, how to interpret certain musical genres, learn about the composers and about the epochs in which they lived. Over time, the learner will also become accustomed to the emotions on the stage that may participate in contests or in recitals. They will become more focused, become more accustomed to their emotions, become more disciplined and better organized. Music is both art and mathematics.
Choir, vocal performance and teamwork. Yes, indeed, choir singing helps us get used to teamwork first. A choir is an ensemble of different people, but who must get to think and sing as one. Children who will choose the choir will learn how to work in a team, learn to follow the conductor's gestures, develop their musical hearing, learn how to properly prepare their vocals, broaden their voice, learn to interpret various musical styles. They will also get used to singing with a master or a musical negative. We will do together exercises of diction, breathing, vocalizations and will learn to listen and synchronize.
Classical, acoustic or electric, guitar is an untempered instrument, meaning that it must be tuned before each use, unlike piano or other tempered instrument. Its study develops hearing, focus, but especially coordination and motricity, as it requires different techniques to produce sound on the strings, in the right hand by pinching and in the left hand by pushing the cords. Therefore, the student who studies this instrument manages to use his hands at the same time differently. Like musical writing, it is an easy to learn this instrument because it uses a single musical staff in the G clef. It is also portable and does not require a major investment. However, being a complex instrument, requiring an already trained hearing, even at a minimal level, and considering the size of the instrument and the playing position, the study of the guitar is recommended starting during or after primary school.
We know how important it is to be able to record a demo in the digital age. Therefore we set up a small studio where you can learn how to write notations professionally with Steinberg Dorico, create samples with Halion and record voice or instruments with our semi-professional equipment and software.
Painting develops imagination, creativity, expressiveness beyond word language, the ability to look with curiosity and focus on line, rhythm, texture and color sensitivity, print and collage extend the range of expression, and modeling learns about shape and volume, construction helps children to understand spatial structure and working with textiles develops fashionable creativity.
At the painting course, children learn pagination, to build objects and human figure, and render the effect of three-dimensionality, drawing in perspective, painting on different materials (paper, cloth, glass, wood) , tempera, oil, coal, pen, pastel) to experiment with several types of composition (decorative, static, portrait, landscape, abstract painting) as well as plastic language (point, line, critically studying the history of the arts.
Young artists will learn and discover materials and modeling tools, forms and methods of texturing and volume modeling. The course develops creativity, imagination and encourages the child to express himself freely through modeling.
The modeling course for children, the age category is characterized by the complexity and variety of subjects, techniques (by adding and removing), sculpture types (basso-relief, mezzo-relief, alto-relief, rond-bosses) and material types(clay, plaster, fimo). The construction of the models allows children to develop their scientific creativity, to think in "engineering mode", to see spatially and to develop their artistic sense.
Children learn the first steps of geometric language from flat geometry to space geometry and projective geometry. They acquire a few notions about design, sketching and making cardboard objects (models), thus familiarizing themselves with the 3D shape (volumes).
Fashion design is one of the applied arts specially dedicated to the design of clothing and accessories where children learn to stitch, knit, design basic patterns and make or modify their own clothing according to their needs and style. Children learn the basic elements of the design (fashion crochet), specific to the design of the clothes, the theory of colors, the proportions of the human body, know the basic notions of the technology of sewing, sewing and production of clothing, learn about different types of fabrics and materials, create clothing patterns, clothes sketches of varying degrees of difficulty, and then give them life in the form of real clothing.
At the fashion design courses, the child develops creativity, imagination and discovers her/his own style of clothing. The child learns to express him/her-self freely through the clothing creations. The artistic sense will be developed along with the logic of association and free, unrestrained thinking. Art will become an inspiration and relaxation method, and each child will be able to create clothing, according to his own imagination. In addition, putting ideas on paper and adding appropriate material samples, children will develop horizons, and discover that there are infinite ways to innovate in the fashion industry.
In children's photo classes, they begin by experimenting with shooting from multiple perspectives, changing the angle to the subject, and understanding the effect of lights on the photos. Children learn about the importance of backgrounds, when to change the framing, in order not to create confusion in the photos taken. Therefore, children will know how to shoot straight, how to hold the camera properly, how to use optical and digital zoom, how they can balance between people, things and places in photography.
Children will also develop basic analytical and processing skills during the course, thus being able to analyze the mistakes made in the learning process as well as how to correct them.
