About Me
Welcome! My name is Alison Maerker Garner, and I am the creator of Musical Minds. Musical Minds is a revolutionary new instrumental music learning curriculum for children and a holistic wellness program for musicians. As a Somatic Attachment specialist, NLP Coach and aesthetics-based educator, I integrate sensory experience and aesthetic response with deep learning, nurturing well-being and sustainable growth through music. My approach addresses what is lacking in our own training as musicians. These include:
- Body Awareness, Healthy Functioning and Use
- The Integration of Mind, Body and Heart within Learning
- Nurturing the Evolution of the Individual through Compassion, Connectivity and Creativity to Cultivate Solid Psycho-Emotional Balance
- Joy in Curiosity and Discovery, both within One's Own Growth and Musical Development
- Experience-based Education as Opposed to Instruction-based Musical Minds: COMPASSION, CONNECTIVITY, CREATIVITY offers musicians, creatives and teachers powerful ways to unleash their full potential through 1:1 coaching and lesson sessions, free classes and workshops, courses, videos and books. I am committed to serving you--the artist, the educator--to create the reality for which you are intended.
