Yoga!

I have been busy this fall doing some serious professional development in the form of completing my 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training with Yoga Works! This is a huge step for me in my continued commitment to bringing arts and healing together in all of my work.

There will be some kids yoga classes popping up around town very soon, likely to accompanied by some really great music. ;) (Keep your eyes open for announcements!) This can be a great transition after your child graduates from World Citizen Baby classes. I will also be teaching some classes for adults. I'm looking to build both restoratives and flow classes. We'll keep you posted on the developments.

Even as this expansion into the field of yoga takes place, we continue to grow World Citizen Baby music and movement for babies, toddlers and the people who love them. I thank you all for your continued support of World Citizen Baby and for continuing to build this great community.

Axé!

New Curriculum!

We at World Citizen Baby are working on our final (for now) curriculum set! When completed, you and your family will have 2 full years of World Citizen Baby music to listen to before starting over again. We strive to keep bringing the highest quality songs from around the world to you and your family. We know that the cds get played over and over again the car (that's great! That's where learning happens!) so we know that its important for mommies and daddies to have variety. We are recording now, and are looking at a January release for the new cd.

We'll keep you posted on any new developments.

Axé!

Creative Movement at Heartbeat House

Sarah is teaching Creative Movement classes for 2-4 year olds at Heartbeat House Tuesdays 10:40-11:25 am. We explore different kinds of movement, including gentle warm ups, animal walks, spinning, jumping, moving across the floor and basic barre work through creative imaginative play and books. Props such as scarves and streamers are used to add more dynamics to movement. If you little one loves to dance, this is a great place to cultivate the love of physical expression while connecting movement to music.

Drop in classes are available.

Birthday Parties

Did you know World Citizen Baby offers birthday party entertainment? We have musical instrument play along parties so you can bring all of your favorite songs from class to the party. If you aren't a regular student, we can bring high energy classic kids songs for the whole family to sing along with. No matter what, we make each party special taking special song requests and adapting to fit the age of the guests and location of the party.



We can do parties at your home inside or outside, at party venues or in a park. In addition to musical birthday parties, we offer face painting and balloon animals either as the solo party entertainment or in addition to music if you want to do a deluxe party.



Sarah Kay Peters, owner or World Citizen Baby, has been performing at parties since 2003. She takes time to talk to families about their needs and wants of each family so that she can bring the best possible entertainment. If you are new to the party scene, she can help you figure out the timing of things your party can have a great flow and you can relax.


If you are interested in party entertainment, please check out the party page on our website or contact Sarah
Remember, make a little music every day!
Axé!

Thank you for a wonderful 3 1/2 years!


Dear World Citizen Families of Atwater Village and Silver Lake,
Thank you for the past several years of making music with me and making World Citizen Baby a part of you lives. I have really enjoyed getting to know all of the amazing families that have taken class with me over the past 3 1/2 years in Atwater and Silver Lake, and some of you for much, much longer. It is time for me to move on to the next chapter in my life and so this summer will be my last session teaching WCB in Atwater. This fall, I will going to graduate school, working towards an MA in Applied Theatre Arts from USC.


I will still be available for birthday parties and special events while I am in school, and if you are not enrolled in the summer session and want to get a few more classes in with me, there is information on my website.


I am looking for an amazing person to buy the business and take over the classes, ideally by the fall session so you don't have to disrupt your child's musical journey. If you are interested in learning more about this opportunity or know someone who might be, please contact me.


This is not the end of World Citizen Baby. The vision of this was always larger than parent and child music classes, and that vision lives on. This blog will continue. Classes will continue in Atwater (I just have to find the magical person to step in as I step out!) and will start at the Brasil Brasil Cultural Center in Culver City. After I complete my MA, I envision a theatre and dance program for older children. Many opportunities to explore our world and ourselves through the lens of art and culture.


Saying goodbye to all of you is the hardest part of this. I thank you all for letting me be a part of your and your children's lives. I will miss jamming with you every week and all the wonderfully special ways each child has to make me smile. I look forward to theses last four weeks of making music with you! We will end com muito axé!

Um braço,
Sarah
