Mona Dena
Director of Mo Music
As Mo Music director, teacher and mother, Mona’s vision
for Mo Music is to grow avid child learners through first-
rate music education, and to nourish and celebrate
community along the way.
During childhood, Mona’s dream was to sing every day for
a living, and she is doing just that! She participated in the
Music Together program with her own children before
founding Mo Music in 2002. Shortly thereafter she saw the
need to develop a quality program for 3 1/2 to 7 year
olds. Having completed advanced Kodaly studies from Holy
Names College (Oakland, CA), Mona created the Kodaly-
based Kids Sing program along with 4 CDs that inform the
curriculum.
Mona has a B.A. in Vocal Performance and teaching
credential from California State University, Hayward, and
has been singing professionally for 20 years in choirs, jazz
combos and Big Bands. She also taught choir for 7 years at
San Mateo’s Bayside Middle School for the Arts.
She lives in Redwood City with her professional drummer
husband, Jeff, and their two children, Madison (6 years)
and Ben (4 years). Mona teaches Music Together and Kids
Sing at our Redwood City location.
