Welcome back to Part 2 of our conversation with the inspiring Leanna O’Brien! If you caught Part 1, you already know that Leanna is passionate about bringing music to life through movement—and helping educators feel confident doing it.

In this second half of our chat, we go even deeper. Leanna shares practical examples of how she brings movement into the classroom, explains how it reinforces key music concepts, and gives us some of her favorite “nuggets of fabulous” for music teachers everywhere. You’ll also hear her thoughts on advocacy, connection, and what she wishes every music educator could hear right now.

If you’re ready to be inspired, encouraged, and equipped—let’s jump back in!
