"Thanks to Mary's easy to follow lessons using rhythm instruments, my students have become more confident participants in creating music of their very own! Her inspirational techniques using Boomwhackers and percussion instruments are inclusive and can be applied to any age and at any level."   Kelly W, Music Educator
"I know I'm gushing, but, at 3 o'clock, a teacher who'd been in your workshop came up to me and said that something within her was restored that she badly needed. She was rejuvenated and reminded of the potential she has as a music teacher to inspire and make accessible the gift of music for her students."  Barbara M, Director of Music, NYC Department of Education
