The Active Listening Playground (ALP)

Isabel discovered the Active Listening Playground (ALP) in 2013, when she was part of a Think Tank at the German Language & Culture Center (Goethe Institute) in Rabat (Morocco). The Think Tank dealt with the topics of "Human Development and Education" in the context of Morocco. The composer and founder of the ALP Method, Keren Rosenbaum, has been a teacher, inspiration and friend of Isabel since 2001. It has been through the project of the ALP Morocco, that they have been working and collaborating until today on international ALP projects. Isabel became a certified ALP Trainer of the Reflexive Music Academy in 2015 and she is a member of the non-profit organization Composing Community. The organization under the lead of Keren Rosenbaum creates and offers different Active Listening Playground programs, as well as Executive Playgrounds to foster Active Listening and Playfulness in professional environments.

ALP in the Music Class

As music teacher, Isabel has been challenged with mixed student groups with very different levels of understanding about Music in different music classes with different age groups. Therefore she uses the ALP Method in order to let her students experience that every sound can become music, and teaches them to understand their voices and bodies as musical instruments on the ever present stage of life. The ALP Method allows students to experience and practice people skills, such as collaboration, teambuilding, empathy, leadership, communication, creativity, self-confidence, and trust .
