Other than daycare this was her first group activity without me and my wife present. However, after the first day, she was quick to run in to see Ms. Kristen, she really connected with her. Our daughter has always been fairly advanced gross motor wise but even with one class a week we have seen her become more confident in her movement and willingness to try new things.

The standards of musicianship at NBS are very high, and the school does a great job of combining those standards with a supportive and encouraging community ethos. I strongly recommend it for families who are seeking a serious and fulfilling musical education/experience. Quite a few of the students there aspire to and achieve careers in music, but it is also a great place for children (and adults!) who want instrumental music to be an important part, but not the biggest part, of their lives.

Excellent teachers, difficult management and inflexible schedules…read more The teachers are wonderful. The director is extremely talented at music and teaching, but managing a business is not her talent. We had to discontinue our lessons here for a number of reasons. First, it was extremely expensive. Second, it was very difficult to reschedule lessons, and you end up losing money if you can't reschedule within the semester because you still have to pay, even if you didn't get all your lessons. Third, it was very disturbing to receive disrespectful voicemail and email messages from management. It was also annoying to receive multiple emails a day in all caps for lessons and performances that do not even apply to you. All parents receive emails for all instruments and age groups, so it's really annoying to see multiple mass emails a day. You also get nickeled and dimed for every second. There's not even time to chat with the teacher for a few minutes after the lesson because there's another student scheduled and waiting until the second your lesson is over. Some personal anecdotes from this school include being lectured and screamed at over the phone about taking a family trip and having to miss a class, instead of waiting for when the director was in Florida on her vacation.... not only was this disrespectful, but we didn't even miss class or go on vacation, as they mixed us up with a different family. Another anecdote is being charged for lessons that were rescheduled due to the teacher's schedule, only to find that unbeknownst to us, the director hired a substitute teacher 24 hours before the lesson, but we had no idea and then received rude emails and voicemails. Fantastic teachers, but we couldn't handle paying that much money for all the harassment and stress. I'd recommend this school for very serious students who want the teachers enough and are willing to pay top dollar and deal with the management.

My daughter has gained so much confidence and self-esteem while at MIM, but especially this last year on the dance team.

I cannot say enough good things about MIM, highly recommend! We are proud to be a part of the MIM community/family.

Our teacher was lovely and made me aware of sensory stim for my child. Next, we used Kardon Institute in Northeast for Music Therapy. She loved it. We traveled over 60 miles on a Saturday during rush hour. It was inconvenient. Finally, we signed our daughter up at Kardon Northeast for dance therapy. This was a great opportunity to dance with a professional creative dance movement therapist and meet new friends with Down Syndrome. Unfortunately, the studio crashed with Covid.
