What Is Glee Club?

Glee Club is an inclusive, social club for teens and young adults to feel empowered, creative and accepted no matter their age or musical ability.  We believe music is for everyone, no exceptions! Each week our team of music therapists, will teach you the choreography, lyrics, adapted movements and sign language to a variety of popular songs.  Each class will also include grounding and regulating movements like stretching, adapted exercise movements, yoga and cool down experiences to ensure a full-body experience for participants.  The last class culminates in a sensory-friendly LIVE performance in which participants will share the songs they’ve been enjoying with family and friends.

Glee Club is geared towards teens and young adults of all abilities ages 15 and up. The cost of glee club is $150 for a 5 week session. MUSIC connects us and we hope to share that connection with you!  Class and registration info below.

How did Glee Club start?

Inspired by the hit TV show GLEE that took the country by storm, Bonnie Hayhurst collaborated with Jim Meadows at The Lake Metroparks to create Glee Club, an adapted program for teens and young adults of all abilities in Lake County, Ohio. Almost 20 years later, and Glee Club is now a Groovy Garfoose phenomenon being offered across Northeast Ohio!

Glee Club is custom designed for teens and young adults of all abilities to access music in an inclusive way regardless of musical, social, communication, physical ability. Our board-certified music therapists collaborate with up to 12 teens and young adults each week to learn sign language, create choreography, play instruments and sing along to chart-topping pop songs. The program culminates in a performance for friends and family on the final day of class.
