Meet Your Instructor: Rubi Lichauco!
Now well into her second decade of spreading her love of music and movement among pre-schoolers in the Greater Boston area, Rubi Lichauco continues to engage her students with a seemingly endless supply of simple songs, movement, finger play, games, and song tales. Rubi now spreads education disguised as entertainment through zoom, reaching audiences of up to a hundred participants at a time. She is certified in Feierabend's First Steps in Music and Lynn Kleiner’s Music Rhapsody Music Program. Years of curating songs, dances, stories, and games have given Rubi the ability to spontaneously vary the material that consistently engages her young audiences. Most important of all, Rubi's enthusiasm and expertise provide her students with a magical springboard for diving into the world of music.
