Jo-Anne Hoult established the studio in January 1990 and having designed an easy learning method and less formal approach to classes, has enjoyed the success of studios in Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban. Jo-Anne not only coaches beginners of all ages but encourages and promotes those who have a natural flair for song writing, music production and performance, as well as those who suffer with r
emedial learning disabilities. The syllabus, tailor-made for each student, does not include exams and each student progresses at their own pace. Vocal coaching is encouraged on an individual basis. Vocal lessons are given weekly as well as foundational 6-week classes. Jo-Anne began singing and performing at the age of 3 and playing the piano at the age of 4. Tenderly guided by her father, she was singing and writing original songs in her teens, performed locally and abroad, has appeared on South African television shows, collaborated on 6 CD productions, and has won various awards over the years. The mandate of the studio is twofold. Jo-Anne has a passion to motivate, teach and impart through music lessons on an individual basis, but is also actively involved in training musicians within local churches and providing insight and input into worship teams inter-denominationally. Individual piano and vocal classes are given in 30 minutes timeslots on a weekly basis. 45-minute classes are also available. The rates per month are as follows:
30 minutes - R 1020.00
45 minutes - R 1520.00
The costs of training of local church musicians - whether lecturing and running courses or conducting Vocal Classes over a 6 - 8-week period is dependent on the number of individuals involved. These can be negotiated on further enquiry. For further information, phone 083 289 0063.
