    About the program

    Costa Rica is a country where you can meet with nature, get to know its culture and have that experience you have always been looking for through volunteering in Costa Rica.

    In the music school program, you will work hand in hand with local people. 

    It is intended that children acquire new skills, hobbies and teaching. 

    We have very few resources, but with love and desire we can do many activities that make the children of the community, enjoy and acquire new teachings that will change their future. 

    The music project will allow you to introduce children to a different world to face. They can also learn to play an instrument with your help. It is important that you have musical knowledge.

    Activities of musical language, rhythms, synchronization, playing instruments, solfeggio, etc. are carried out.

    If you have an instrument, this is the time to take it and let the children see and discover the charm of music.
