Are music classes good for babies/

Music classes are fun, but they are not necessarily the best way to introduce music to babies.

But I'm talking about a Gymboree or Kindermusik type music class.

Baby music classes are mostly just a social experience, and it's good for babies to learn that playing with other people is fun. The teaching style may not be the best, though, and they have an emphasis on repeating songs, so not everything there is actually helpful for babies.

Well repeating songs is good to some extent.
user
It is good for babies to practice repeated songs in general, but there's usually much more to a real music lesson than that.

I think it's okay, but most of the skills a baby learns in such a class are from interacting with the teacher, not actually doing something useful with music.
