Music has always held a special place in my life. Like a theme and variations, it has taken different forms: years of classical piano and singing, teaching a varied clientele for 30 years+ and, for the last 20 years, improvisation at the heart of my mission, teaching hundreds of musicians how to unleash their true musical essence.

Testimonial

Improvisation classes with Josée have given me back the desire to put my hands on the piano and have reintegrated music into my life. What luck!!! I was moved several times to be able to play freely, to explore my creativity and even to compose melodies or arrangements according to my emotions. I can tell you that the emotional channel was very open thanks to improvisation. Josée's vast experience, professionalism and generous feedback are relevant and really help us to improve.

Classical musicians shouldn’t have to...

  • Be burned out by the the rigour and technical performance required by the industry
  • Feel limited in their ability to express their own music
  • Play ONLY classical music 
  • Lose their love for music that was there in the first place

I can show you how to...

  • Recover from «performance burnout» and perfectionism
  • Unleash the music of your heart and soul
  • Discover other musical styles and «sounds»
  • Get your love for music back if you lost it!
