Don't worry if you are not a confident singer - your voice is your baby's favourite! We also use simple dance moves and actions, as well as handheld musical instruments, to stimulate rhythmic awareness and share the joy of making music together. After the class there is always tea, coffee and the chance to chat. You don't need any prior knowledge or experience to take part. Everything we do in 'Babysalmesang in English' classes is designed to suit babies up to the age of 12 months. About Sarah Maxted'Babysalmesang in English' is led by Sarah Maxted. Sarah is a British singer who trained at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama in Cardiff. She is an experienced performer and educator, having previously taught baby, toddler and pre-school classes at The Little London Music School. Sarah currently sings at Østervangkirken in Glostrup and also teaches Babysalmesang at Eliaskirken in Vesterbro as part of the 'Folkekirken for Internationals' project. Sarah explains what is so special about the concept of Babysalmesang: "I think Babysalmesang is so much more than just a music class for babies. It's based on in-depth studies about the power of musical and sensory stimulation for infant development, but it also goes beyond that. The thing that makes the Babysalmesang experience so unique, and - in my opinion - magical, is the space it creates for new families to enjoy togetherness, mindfulness, and joy in the present moment. It really is an experience of quality time and bonding, encouraging eye-contact between parent and baby, whilst all the adults sing together and share rhythm and movement with their little ones. Because Babysalmesang uses traditional hymns and children's songs and takes place in the beautiful church space, there is also a feeling of belonging, being at the heart of the community, and connecting with a sense of something larger than ourselves." Babysalmesang in English is for free. When: Each Tuesday 10 am I 2024 (there are no Babysalmesang during school vacations). Where: Kirkeskibet, Topstykket 20, 2450 KBH SV.
