Welcome to my Music for Young Children website!
Hi! My name is Leora Cashe. I
am thrilled to be teaching this amazing program that's brilliantly
designed to give each child an opportunity to connect to their musical mind and voice!

It's a real honour exploring the joy of music with children.
Every
day I am reminded how intrinsic our connection to music is. I believe
music is immensely important in developing our intellect, emotions,
self-discipline, self-motivation and the forging of values. Together we
learn and teach one
another the art of working in a musical community and in so doing
connect with our greater good. My goal is to empower each child to
courageously share their musical ideas and songs, experience the joy of
music making and joyously play the piano every day.

MYC is the only child centered learning system that integrates keyboard, creative movement, rhythm, singing, ear training, sight reading, music theory, and composition!
As a child I remember feeling the isolation of practicing the piano alone but with MYC the child parent bond is profoundly nurtured while learning to play the piano together. I
feel that MYC is the perfect door to open into the wonderful of music
making. The possibilities are endless and the rewards are for a
life-time. "Long after the toys of childhood are gone, the gift of music remains." - Wendy Knapp (MYC Teacher/Coordinator).

Career Bio
Leora Cashe has over ten years of teaching movement and music to children and over twenty years of professional performance experience including numerous productions with Vancouver's Arts Club Theatre.

Having recently returned from teaching with the award winning Music House For Children in London, UK., Leora is an extraordinary teacher with young children and has found a way to impart her own musicianship with those that study with her.
Music education is a challenging endeavor for many. Often, we can be great lovers of music or great musicians, but there are few that have the ability to truly be successful at keeping a balance of being a professional musician along with being an extraordinary teacher of music. Leora is truly a special teacher and I feel fortunate to have had my child work with such a wonderful talent. - Tania Miller, Music Director of the Victoria Symphony
