Music is a Total Brain Workout
We embrace the science behind the art.
Our workshops not only teach you how to rap and beatbox; they also provide a dynamic workout for your brain.
As we explore rhythm, create beats, and craft rhymes, we're giving our mind the exercise it craves.
The Science of Music and Brain Development
Music isn’t only fun and entertaining; it's also a powerful tool for mental and emotional growth.
Enhanced Cognitive Abilities:
Engaging with music stimulates various areas of the brain, enhancing cognitive abilities such as memory, attention, and problem-solving skills.
Emotional Well-being:
The emotional resonance of music can uplift our spirits, reduce stress, and promote a sense of well-being. It's a universal language that speaks directly to our emotions.
Neuroplasticity:
Learning to create music, whether through rap, beatbox, or singing, actually changes the brain's structure. This phenomenon, known as neuroplasticity, allows our brains to adapt and grow throughout our lives.
Here are some videos explaining the positive effects of music on the brain in more detail
"Music is a social glue that clearly enhances our sense of mental well being"
"All these things increase your mental health, and ultimately, music becomes a mode of mindfulness, of contemplation"
"Musicians often have higher levels of executive function"
Our current education system rightly puts great emphasis on Science, Maths and English, but at the same time, less and less focus is being put on music.
This seems counter intuitive when research shows that music helps the brain to develop in ways that make learners better at all other academic subjects and activities that involve the brain (everything!).
However, research also shows that many children do not engage with traditional methods of music tuition, meaning that they are missing out on untold amounts of benefits to their intellectual progress, health and well being.
Hip Hop skills are therefore a potential revolution in education, as they give everybody access to music creation anywhere, at any time, with no need for physical instruments, and a focus on creativity and ownership.
We work hard to work with as many people as we can, empowering them with techniques to build their brains and become the best versions of themselves possible.
