Music. Experience it. Make it. Live it.
I started playing the piano in my early teens, beginning with classical and popular music, it wasn't until I went to university that I delved into the world of Jazz.
It doesn't matter whether you want to play solo, play in a band, write your own music, arrange your favourite songs or just see where your interest in learning an instrument takes you. Deciding to begin is the first step to make progress and choosing to get help is proven to speed up that progress.
​
You might be thinking 'with the resources and technology available to us, one can learn almost any song they want with a little bit of research'. In my opinion, this is true but it all depends on your goals. If you only want to play a few songs and have endless patience, then yes, the internet is the place to go. If you want to learn how to really play an instrument and be able to play all sorts of music then studying with a teacher is a reliable method. A teacher will help you find music that suits your level while achieving your goals and making progress. Kind of a personal trainer for your musical goals.
​
When I'm not teaching, my time is split between all sorts of other tasks both music and non-music related. If you want to what I get up to check out my the social links at the bottom of every page.

As this studio continues to grow and expand, the help and support of other people is much needed and appreciated. An easy way to support JLT Studio is to simply make a purchase whether it be a song, some sheet music, a book or one of the many resources available.

Whether you're looking to start your own musical journey, rekindle an old love, expand your musical knowledge or simply say "hello!" I will be happy to hear from you!
