Learning to play an instrument or to sing has been proven to increase levels of confidence, self belief and self-esteem, while at the same time boosts communication skills and self awareness. Performing in public, whether by oneself or with others, enables the student to participate in a wider range of social activities and events, and to make new friends in a controlled environment. 

Concentration, and the ability to focus and relax appropriately are highly valued. As a result, dedication and the ability to follow things through to its completion is developed. At the end of the learning process, the student will go to the next step, which is to develop the memory, and learn how to present him/herself well in a public performance.

Physically, learning to play an instrument is to train the hands to move at different speeds and in different directions simultaneously, while at the same time, to read from the musical score. Various attributes such as hand-eye coordination, dexterity, fine motoric skills and a spatial awareness are developed as a result. Singing develops the diaphragm and improves blood ciculation.

In addition to all of the above, since playing an instrument or singing to make music uses the analytical and creative parts of the brain, both hemispheres are exercised. And if a student decides to stop playing an instrument, an appreciation of the fine musical arts, and a wider knowledge of music, would stay with him/her for the rest of his/her life.

Since every instrument follows the same laws of music, the musical knowledge learnt is thus transferable, if the student decides to switch to another instrument or to sing later on.
