WINGS – SCHOOL OF SONG
“Music gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything.” Plato
ALAS provides a safe space for children and young people, where they take refuge in music and dance, not in drugs and alcohol.
Participants learn singing, vocalization, dance, body expression, musical theatre, rhythm, coordination, cooperation and teamwork.
Their teacher and the inspiration behind ALAS is Kharla Barragan,a professional musician with a degree in Communication Sciences. For 12 years, Kharla has been helping people with addictions to drugs, alcohol and those with emotional problems.
Fees – 50% of students pay for their classes, and the other 50% are in the scholarship program.
Groups of students:
- Children – from 4 to 11 years old
- Adolescents – 13 to 25 years
- Adults – 26 years and older
“I see ALAS as a school full of happy children, youth and adults, singing, dancing, doing shows and learn about family, values, love for others, respect and equality.” – Kharla’s words.
There is a critical need in Puerto Vallarta for young people and children to be able to express themselves and heal their emotions. ALAS helps meet that need.
