Service Description
[In-Person, at the Marbridge Foundation] Disney Melodies: The Magic of Music by Kirk Guthaus, on Sundays, 7/13/2025-8/17/2025, 2:00-4:00 pm CST at the Marbridge Foundation campus (Not UT) Embark on a magical musical journey through the enchanting world of Disney with 'Disney Melodies & Magic'! This interactive course explores beloved Disney songs, from the heartfelt wishes of 'When You Wish Upon a Star' (Pinocchio) to the empowering anthems of 'Let It Go' (Frozen) and 'How Far I’ll Go' (Moana). Each week, we’ll dive into key musical concepts like melody, dynamics, tempo, timbre, harmony, and rhythm through engaging activities such as 'Guess the Instrument,' 'Tempo Walk,' and creating 'Harmony Movement.' We'll analyze the storytelling power of 'You've Got a Friend in Me' (Toy Story), celebrate friendship with 'We’re All in This Together' (High School Musical), and unleash our inner rhythm with 'I Just Can’t Wait to Be King' (The Lion King). Join us for a six-week celebration of Disney's timeless music, culminating in a joyful dance party!
Upcoming Sessions
Cancellation Policy
Our classes operate on a first-come, first-serve basis, with limited seating for up to 13 participants to ensure a quality learning experience. By registering, you reserve a valuable seat that may prevent others from joining. We understand that plans can change. However, cancellations made within one week of the class start date are not eligible for refunds. If you are unable to attend, we are happy to offer a course voucher, allowing you to apply your registration toward a future class of your choice. Parent/Guardian Attendance Policy Our program is designed to empower adults with IDDs to participate in classes at UT Austin alongside their peers, including both other adult students and college students. We encourage our participants to build self-confidence, practice age-appropriate social skills, and experience the independence of a college environment, just as any neurotypical college student would. To support this mission, parents and guardians are not permitted to attend classes with their student. However, if there are special circumstances—such as a need for assistance with personal care or concerns about behavior—exceptions to this policy may be considered. These exceptions require review and approval by our Executive Director, Kaelin Rubenzer, on a case-by-case basis. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
