We are super excited to introduce our new piano, violin, and vocal teacher named Yun. Yun is a composer, producer, and jazz pianist based in Toronto, Canada.

As a performer, Yun has toured internationally and worked as a session keyboardist, sharing the stage with many talented artists. She has played at major festivals such as Osheaga and Sommo, bringing her soulful touch and creative energy to every performance.

Alongside her performing career, Yun is passionate about music education and loves helping students grow their confidence and creativity through music.
