"Our family is a fan of the Musikgarten program and our teacher,
Gena.  Gena has a beautiful voice and is terrific with all of the
children in class.  We sing "Gena songs" (from the Musikgarten CDs) all
the way to class and all the way home.  I have even caught my little
girls teaching the songs to their dolls!  We have been
coming to Gena's class since our oldest (now 7) was an infant and now
she has joined the children's choir at church.  All of our kids love
music and a lot of that love comes from the enjoyment they experience
at Muskigarten.  Our 4-year old little girl and 1-year old boy love it
just as much as our oldest daughter did.  They can't wait for "music
class" and have a ball singing and dancing and playing neat instruments."

"It's been awhile since we've been able to attend Musikgarten class but we all have fond memories. My children and I all enjoyed Gena's Musikgarten class! I loved being able to bring all four of my children to one class, and they enjoyed the music and rhythm games.  As a teacher, Gena did an excellent job of encourging the children to participate, while allowing them the freedom to say, 'no thank you.'  We recently found our Musikgarten CD and the children enjoyed listening to it over again and remembering the fun activities that accompanied the songs. I was amazed at what they remembered since it had been a couple of years since they had been in the class."
--Michelle, mom of 4

"Gena's Musikgarten was one of the best investments of time and money for my children, and myself!  Gena's patience and musical abilities drew the children to participate every week; even my shy son looked forward to going.  The Musikgarten program is an excellent way to cultivate a love of music in children, and uses fun techniques to teach them pitch, rhythm and listening skills.  Well done, Gena!"
--A mother of 4

"Gena is a gifted musician and teacher with a love of children and of 
music.  Our grandson enjoyed his years in Musikgarten very much.  
Thanks, Gena"
--Judy, a grandma

"My two boys, ages 4 and 6,  got a super start in music with Gena Mayo's Musikgarten classes.  After two years with Gena they have now moved on to private violin lessons.  Their violin teacher tells me what super natural rhythm the boys have--I tell her that they have a terrific music theory class under their belts!!"
--a mom of 3

"With four children, Musikgarten was a chance for me to spend one-on-one time with my youngest (age 3).  She absolutely loved the undivided attention and "her" music.  She often requested that we dance and sing at home in between classes!  It was also a chance for her older siblings to play with her doing something she loved."  --Sheri
