Sessions for Learning Disabilities & Autism

---

Maria offers 1:1 sessions as well as group sessions for children  with disabilities. It is widely accepted that the benefits of music for people with a disability are immeasurable and  these 60 minute sessions are a great way to incorporate music into daily life.

Maria also runs sessions for children with autism, offering an opportunity for children to express themselves freely using musical instruments and voice.

Maria offers 1:1 singing and performance sessions for all adults with a learning disability. These sessions can be structured to meet the emotional and physical needs of the person and last for 60 minutes. Maria has worked with people with disabilities for over 35 years and understands the needs of people - and their desire to have music and performance to lead fulfilled lives.

Maria holds regular training sessions for  teachers and support workers who have regular contact with people with ASLD. These training sessions offer the  organisation or school the opportunity to deliver music and performing art sessions to people with specific needs and encourages individual expression in a music form. These training sessions usually take half a day and can be tailored to a particular establishment, group or individual.
