Read more...Monkey Music classes have been running for 30 years, and for over 25 in Blackheath & Greenwich.
Our classes are deliberately small and make full use of the 30-minute sessions to captivate and educate, through structured, social, and music-making. Throughout the curriculum, we use over 500 original and traditional songs, musical games, and exciting movement ideas.
Our specialist teachers are selected not only for their evident musical talent but also for their natural ability to communicate with and entertain young children and their families.
And grown-ups love Monkey Music as much as the children! We welcome parents, grandparents, siblings, aunts and uncles, nannies and childminders. We know that many lasting friendships are formed in our classes. Special memories are made at Monkey Music, as parents share precious time with their baby, toddler or pre-schooler, watching them develop and grow in confidence. How we teach at Monkey Music in this safe and structured environment helps prepare children for nursery, kindergarten and school.
As teachers, we love to witness and share in the many milestones your little ones make. It is an absolute privilege for us to enjoy first claps, waves & steps in Rock’n’Roll and Heigh-Ho. Then in Jiggety-Jig and Ding-Dong, their solos, little compositions, and confident turn-taking in a group. Monkey Music teaching truly is a unique and rewarding way of life.

Your first class is free and you can book your place online. Take a good look at the class timetable below to find the best day and time for you and your little one! We look forward to welcoming you very soon!

"The class and TJ are fantastic, and Sophia enjoyed every minute since she was a baby. Having attended a number of different music classes, I think this is the best one."
"I always look forward to Monkey Music. I think you have a fantastic talent. Without your charisma and energy, I mean without you Rebecca, it wouldn't be the same."
"My nanny mentioned that you were impressed with Chloe playing along in time today. I would have to credit that to your excellent tuition. I strongly believe that her love of music is down to your classes."
"I just don't know how on earth we did not try this before, I absolutely love it. We were made to feel very welcome and Rebecca is an excellent teacher. It is the best music class I have seen for my daughter."
"Some of my peers felt that Monkey Music was too much of a financial commitment. I can honestly say it was one of the soundest decisions I have made."
"Whilst both my boys are like chalk and cheese they have both loved every minute of Monkey Music. This was the only activity which made my baby son stop screaming for a blissful 30 minutes of the day!"
Celebrate with Monkey and Mo!

The Monkey Team
Eleanor
I am excited to combine my language teaching skills, experience of working with children and love of music to teach your little ones! I love to see how much they absorb at such a young age. My daughter and I were big Monkey Music fans and now love singing in a choir together.
Siân
I have been obsessed with music my entire life, and since graduating from the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in 2017 I have been performing and teaching across the UK and beyond.
I particularly love to share my passion for music with preschool children, so come along and join in the fun!
TJ
As a trained actor, I first discovered Monkey Music with my son, many years ago. I just had to become a teacher. Our Monkey Music classes bring so much joy to local families and I still love entertaining babies, toddlers and young children alike through our progressive curriculum!

Just as language skills are developed early in life, so is musical talent. Regardless of the level of music aptitude with which children are born, they must have formal and informal experiences in music to maintain that level of potential.
