Music at it's best!
 Manual Music™ is music like you've never seen it. It all starts in your heart. It's probably a song that always moves you. Everytime you hear the melody or feel the beat, it stirs the soul. Before long, it makes its way to your lips. You hum it. Then depending on who's around, you sing it. Your fist magically becomes a microphone and you give it all you've got like it's the final round on Ameican Idol. But still the song seeks another outlet. The music longs to consume you. It wants to leap off your hands!
We don't believe in holding back. Let us teach you to sign the song in American Sign Language. Music on the hands is music at its best.
Contact us and we'll show you what we mean. We work one-on-one and with groups.
Give your new spouse the ultimate gift. Sign a song on your wedding day. Imagine Betcha' by Golly, Wow or We've Only Just Begun rendered in ASL. Not a dry eye in the house.
How might a recording artist mesmerize fans at sold-out concerts? By signing a song… or two… or three.
Are you a Praise & Worship Leader? Take worship to a new level. Teach the congregation signing music skills by helping them learn basic signs to new or familiar songs. Give us one hour and watch a song be transformed into a beautiful work of art.
Whether you're ready to blow them away at your next audition or you want to offer a new class at summer camp, Manual Music™ Clinics can come to you. Never again will you SEE music in the same light. And just think… we had a hand in it!
It'll be fun and exciting as we show you:
- Basic translation techniques
- How to quickly and accurately process a song
- How to use signs that are conceptual and expressive
- How to include facial expression with signs and concepts
- How to integrate rhythm, melody and tempo with creative uses of signs
- How to incorporate movement with sign formation
We hope you'll find our clinics to be in a class of their own.

"She did an incredible job interpreting that song. One of the important parts of performing arts interpreting is having stage presence. When she took the stage - she was no one special. By the time the first 30 seconds of the song had completed she had everyone's attention. It's not just how she commanded the stage, but also how she used the space to help convey the message. By the time she was 90 seconds into the song, she had people already on their feet, dodging the heads of people in front of them to get a better view. Not everyone has stage presence, and it can't be taught... Your interpreter is one of the few that has it... What a true inspiration."
