Welcome to ECMMA! I am honored to be serving as President of the 2020-2022 Board of Directors. This is an exciting time to lead an organization like ECMMA. As we work toward our vision of being a catalyst for meaningful early childhood music and movement practices throughout the world, we can support the efforts of practitioners and researchers and help members navigate the challenges of teaching students and families during the COVID crisis. The new board has many innovative ideas for connecting members, facilitating networking, and sharing best practices and the latest research. Through our website, IJMEC, our social media platforms, newsletters and our members we hope to achieve our mission of supporting early childhood music and movement practitioners by providing resources, advocacy, professional development, and collaboration opportunities. This work has never been more crucial. Many thanks to our board and active members. If you are not a member, please click here to learn more.
