Is your child getting disappointed and frustrated with some of their extracurricular activities? It’s not their (or your!) fault. Rigid curriculums, unresponsive instructors, and negative social dynamics can leave children feeling disheartened and discouraged.
It can be difficult to witness teachers' reactions when lessons don't go as planned. It’s hard to see your child’s confusion when classmates respond negatively. You may end up feeling protective and helpless, unsure of how to best help them succeed.
If you've experienced these challenges, know that you're not alone.
We believe that kids, especially neurodivergent kids, critically need inclusive, adaptive programs in order to thrive. And that’s why we created SOMA.
So many students (and parents!) come to us carrying the weight of negative experiences with educational providers who meant well, but didn’t understand their needs. At School of Magic Arts, we're here to turn things around. We believe in creating a supportive and enriching environment where every child can thrive, regardless of their previous experiences.
As seasoned magicians and educators, we are lucky to have had the opportunity to teach thousands of students and we’ve learned, sometimes the hard way, what leads to success and what just doesn’t. We've witnessed firsthand the transformative power of magic in boosting confidence, resilience, and self-expression in children.
Our progressive curriculum and personalized approach ensure that each child receives the attention and guidance they need to succeed.
Our small group classes, engaged instructors, and supportive environment allow every child to showcase their magic, increasing confidence. We want them to feel empowered to shine, on (and off) the stage.
It’s hard to get creative when you don’t have the tools you need. We send a curated magic kit for every course, so there’s never a meltdown over materials.
No matter what program you choose, every child receives personalized attention and mentorship tailored to their needs. We find kids thrive when they get individualized support, encouragement, and feedback.
During their first lesson, your student will learn an amazing trick, even if they’ve never done magic before. Your kid will come away empowered by success and excited to share.
We will match your young magician up with the right group or private lessons based on their goals and skill level. Class dynamics are very important to our student success. You’ll know where your kid fits here at SOMA.
Your child will experience a safe space to be themselves and learn a unique skill in a positive environment. You'll have a child that is empowered to take on new challenges with the self-confidence that comes with success and support. Due to the increase in confidence, the student is more willing to try new things and more resilient in terms of failure.
“Brian and Annie are remarkable instructors who combine their infectious joy for magic with immeasurable patience, kindness, and support for their students. I cannot recommend SOMA enough! Our daughter has gained confidence and learned a new set of skills that will remain with her for years to come.”
“You and Brian have instilled in her a real love of magic. She’s so proud of her accomplishments with every new pin and is always prepared wherever she goes to demonstrate a new skill that keeps folks scratching their heads. Regulars always ask, ‘What’s new?’ up her sleeve. You should see her face every time one of your boxes comes in the mail.”
“I really appreciate that creating an inclusive and safer space that welcomes diversity and uniqueness is a priority. It’s something very important to me and my family. I also really like the way your program is structured and the emphasis on building self-confidence.”
