Program Overview
Ongoing After-School Program
Kandia Glee Club is an ongoing after-school vocal and performance program where students explore singing, movement, rhythm, and stage presence within a dynamic ensemble setting.
More than a traditional choir, Glee Club functions as a musical revue, combining vocal technique, body percussion, expressive movement, and storytelling.
Students learn to use both their voice and body as instruments to communicate emotion, tell stories, and perform with confidence.
The program builds musicality, coordination, collaboration, and self-expression in a joyful, structured, and supportive environment.

Classes take place on school campuses, and every 12 weeks students participate in a live musical showcase for families and the school community.
The Kandia Method™
All Kandia World Beat programs are guided by The Kandia Method™, a holistic, process-based arts education framework designed to develop confident, creative, and emotionally grounded artists.
The Kandia Method™ prioritizes:
1
process over performance
2
confidence before talent
3
access before excellence
4
the artist as a whole person
Students develop strong individual artistic foundations — including technique, awareness, and discipline — while learning how to collaborate meaningfully within an ensemble.

Final performances celebrate growth, learning, and confidence, not perfection.
