Kylie says, “20 years of teaching children and I am still excited to go to work each day. It’s never felt like ‘work’ as I get to play music and be with children, the two things I love most. I get a buzz when I run into children I have taught many years ago and hear that they have continued their musical journey or when I run into parents and they tell me what wonderful memories they have. Many of them say they made life long friends through the classes. I love that our classes teach children to love music and nurture confidence and also help support families in developing connections within the community.”
