— Pillar I.
Research-backed curriculum.
Developmentally sequenced lessons teach musical skill alongside persistence, curiosity, emotional regulation, and resilience.
Music is the method. Whole, healthy students are the outcome.
Music is how children learn resilience, empathy, and focus.
But thousands of students in the Pacific Northwest alone attend schools with zero music instruction. We're changing that — one classroom at a time.
In low-income school districts across the Pacific Northwest and rural California, there is one music teacher for every 1,000 students. Many of these schools have no music program at all.
Meanwhile, research shows that children who receive music instruction make measurable gains in literacy, emotional regulation, and mathematics.
Educators trained across two continents and 20+ U.S. states.
Students in music deserts set to receive EIMI instruction.
Of trained teachers report higher classroom engagement.
Emotionally Intelligent Music Instruction reframes music education as part of human development — not a niche specialty, but a foundation for whole, healthy students.

Music is the method. Whole, healthy students are the outcome.
Live workshops and self-paced modules equip classroom teachers — not just music specialists — to deliver EIMI.
Every teacher can bring music into every classroom, regardless of their musical background.
We don't deliver a one-time workshop and walk away. Our model embeds music into daily instruction, with ongoing support and research that measures real outcomes.
In traditional programs, the music is the product, and the humans are just the means to achieve it. In this program, whole, healthy humans are the product, and the music is the means.
I'm so happy we have this program, because there is music in my classroom where there wasn't before — and my kids needed it. I didn't know how bad they needed it.
The longer I've studied math and physics, the more I've realized their connections in my own cognition to music. Piano, like math, requires its learners to make mistakes daily and meet them with curiosity.
I Am Music Programme has impacted my learners positively, and the love of music has really developed its root in their hearts.
We're a young foundation with a long horizon. Here's how we're moving from pilot programs to systemic change.
$35 a month puts EIMI training and materials in the hands of one classroom teacher — who reaches hundreds of students over a career.
