Piano with Brittany S.

Brittany is a creative entrepreneur, professional musician, music & arts educator with a Masters in Teaching, certified yoga & mindfulness teacher for all ages, and mindset & mindfulness coach. She is the Founder & CEO of Stay In Tune Creative Arts & Wellness. The foundation of my teaching is based on technique, which I believe with dedicated practice develops into individuals’ musical styles and musicianship. I also believe that music has no boundaries, and every musician deserves to explore a diverse repertoire of music genres. My students are given the opportunity to dabble in several genres of music including classical, jazz, pop, & rock. Brittany has developed her own style of teaching which focuses on meeting her students where they are at the moment physically, mentally, and emotionally. Her method of teaching and coaching is focused on fostering mindfulness and a growth mindset. She strives to help her students not only learn how to express themselves and work hard towards their personal goals but to also cultivate self awareness, body awareness, and lifelong self-care habits through building connection, encouraging self reflection, and fostering love and compassion for themselves and others. Although traditional methods and pedagogy of private lessons play an important role in shaping a student’s skills and practice habits, I believe the focus of each lesson should be on the student and their progress at that moment and not where me or anyone else thinks they “should be”. Methods should be used as a tool in helping students progress, not as a test of their talent or potential, and are determined during lessons based on students’ personal goals.
