What are Creative Arts Therapies?
Creative Arts Therapies provide a fun alternative to traditional therapy and run-of-the-mill recreational activities. The creative arts engage an individual’s mind, body, and senses. Absolutely no creative art skills are necessary to participate in creative arts experiences. The focus of these experiences is on the process! If you are looking for something more recreational, like lessons, Muzique offers regular and adapted lessons as well!
What is Music Therapy?
Music therapy is the use of music by a Board-Certified Music Therapist to accomplish therapeutic, non-musical goals. Translation: A board-certified Music Therapist uses music to work towards goals that may also be worked on in occupational, speech and physical therapy, such as motor skills, language skills, social skills, life skills and so much more! Since music is a source of motivation for most, music therapy is a space where the client can engage more willingly in accomplishing his or her therapeutic goals.
What is Dance Movement Therapy?
Dance movement therapy is the psychotherapeutic use of movement as a process which furthers the emotional, cognitive, physical, and social integration of the individual. The dance/movement therapist focuses on movement behavior as it emerges in the therapeutic relationship. Expressive, communicative, and adaptive behaviors are all considered for both group, individual, couples, & family treatment. Body movement simultaneously provides the means of assessment and the mode of intervention.
What is Art Therapy?
Art therapy is a mental health profession in which clients, facilitated by the art therapist, use art media, the creative process, and the resulting artwork to explore their feelings, reconcile emotional conflicts, foster self-awareness, manage behavior and addictions, develop social skills, improve reality orientation, reduce anxiety, and increase self-esteem. Using the creative process as a tool and guide, the therapist works to help clients gain a better understanding of themselves and enhance their personal sense of well-being. The artistic process can help individuals increase self-esteem, enhance their degree of self-awareness, recognize patterns, and develop their potential for living a personally satisfying life.
What is Drama Therapy?
Drama therapy is the intentional use of drama and/or theater processes to achieve therapeutic goals. Drama therapy is active and experiential. This approach can provide the context for participants to tell their stories, set goals and solve problems, express feelings, or achieve catharsis. Through drama, the depth and breadth of inner experience can be actively explored and interpersonal relationship skills can be enhanced. Participants can expand their repertoire of dramatic roles to find that their own life roles have been strengthened.

Tuition is automatically charged on the first of every month. Tuition costs for each offering can be found upon request, as our prices may change or differ. Our price stays the same per month, even with 5 weeks in a month. With tuition, we are essentially providing each of you with about 4 free lessons a year, if attendance is consistent and make ups are not required. There will be a $20.00 charge added to all returned checks/bounced charges. In order to withdraw from our program, we must be notified we must be notified by 2 weeks in advance in order for you to not be charged for the next month and for therapeutic purposes to provide both client and therapist with proper closure. All sessions and lessons with be continuous unless otherwise notified. If enrolled in therapy, please understand that treatment will be ongoing, with a reassessment given only when requested by the parent or case manager, or if the therapist sees fit.
Cancellations
We require a 24-hour minimum cancellation notice in order for you to be considered for rescheduling. 24-hour cancellation rescheduling is fully at the discretion of the therapist or instructor and is dependent upon the schedule of the therapist or instructor, unless 2+ weeks notice is given, i.e. scheduled vacation. To cancel a session, you need to call YOUR INSTRUCTOR OR THERAPIST and they will then relay the message to Muzique management, noting the time of your call. If 24-hour notice is not given, the student forfeits the lesson, and will be charged. Cancelling or missing a lesson does not reduce or delay payment. No-shows will not be made up under any circumstances. If the instructor/therapist has to cancel a lesson, a make-up will be given within a month of the therapist/instructor's cancellation. There will be no prorating or price adjustment under any circumstances, unless decided by Muzique management in very specific situations.
Absences
A same-day excused absence is illness of the student or an extreme family emergency. For families with more than one student, only the student who is ill will be excused. Should school be closed, sessions will likely still happen. If there is any doubt, please call your therapist/instructor ahead to verify. Students are required to give two-week notice when they take a vacation. All planned absences should be reported to the instructor or therapist. THERE ARE NO MAKE-UPS FOR GROUPS. If a group/class does not have coverage in the absence of a therapist/instructor and the class/group must be cancelled, a credit will be added to your account.
Make-ups
Make-ups will be arranged if the therapist’s time and space permit; however, the instructor is not obligated. All make-ups must be done within one month of the absence. Make ups will be provided on first come first serve basis. This is why we already give students 4 free lessons a year. There are no “make-ups of make-ups”. If the student misses the make-up lesson, the lesson is forfeited. No refunds will be issued for student’s absences; however, a credit will be issued for a teacher absence if the teacher is unable to schedule a make-up on his or her end. Our goal with your tuition is to provide at least 4 sessions within the month. Anything additional is just a bonus for you! Please keep in mind that make-ups are for therapeutic or practical reasons, not for monetary reasons. Make-ups need to be scheduled at the time of cancellation for a date within a reasonable time frame from the absence. Any questions regarding this, please call Muzique, LLC.
Termination & Refunds
Although rescheduling is provided (as stated above), credits or refunds are not given for missed lessons. If the student decides to discontinue lessons prior to the completion of the month, no refunds will be given for lessons not taken. If for any reason Muzique, LLC is required to close by mandate or law in the state of New Jersey, all services will be moved online until we can resume services in person.
PRACTICE (for lessons)!!!!
Daily practice is essential to learning any instrument. The family will need to establish a daily routine for the student that includes practice. At each lesson, the teacher will clearly explain the student's practicing assignments for that week. The teacher will notate the practice assignments. The student is expected to complete the assignments by the next lesson. Parental help may be required if the student is too young to read.
Behavior IN Studio
All students MUST follow all rules of etiquette while on our premises:
1. Treat Everyone; Students, Teachers, Guests, etc. with only the utmost respect.
2. Clean up any trash you bring into the building. Trash bins are located in the art studio, and bathroom. Please no eating in the studios.
3. Take care of all equipment in lobby or in studio space.
