Let’s talk about the brain

Music is a powerful tool - listening to music, attending a concert, or even just thinking about your favourite song, all have hugely positive physiological and psychological effects, both on  brain health and wellbeing.

The benefits of learning to play a musical instrument, at any age, are now being recognised by science.

This unique, multi-sensory activity engages countless regions of the brain at the same time.

By activating these many areas together over time, stronger neural connections and pathways are created, which can improve the overall strength and efficiency of the brain, and positively impact many aspects of a person’s day-to-day life.

It is for these reasons that MBS Music Service facilitates instrumental music lessons for all age groups and abilities, not just for children.

It is vital that we share the extraordinary effects that music can have on the:

Mind [cognitive tasks such as attention, decision-making and problem-solving];

Body [the anatomical strength and efficiency of neuronal pathways, connections, and plasticity in the brain]; and

Soul - [mood, motivation, sense of accomplishment and overall wellbeing] as far and wide as possible.

Science is proving that we can all benefit from music in many ways, at any age, and we’d like to show you the way.

About the music, you, and right now

You may sometimes feel that society has the idea that learning new skills has an “expiry date” - at MBS Music Service, we think differently.

Curiosity, conscientiousness and openness have long been regarded as some of the most valuable traits that contribute to healthy ageing, and our teachers are here to encourage and nurture these every step of the way.

And finally,

a note to your inner cheerleader

When we talk about contentment, peace and happiness, we have to have a listen to our inner monologue.

It’s easy to believe our inner critic, who might suggest that certain things aren’t possible anymore, or that we’ve “missed our chance”, but we believe differently here.

At MBS, we give a megaphone to your inner cheerleader.

By giving people the opportunity to prove to themselves that they can learn new and challenging skills, we can reinstall and reinvigorate confidence and self-esteem, and encourage all to keep living well every day.
