Jo-Anne Hoult Music Studio

This little miss is Student of the Week! ❤️🎶✨️
Nikita has been an online student of mine since 2020 and part of the studio for the past 7 years! ❤️
Nikita recently completed her annual assessment which included performing an unseen piece with just a few minutes preparation, music theory, scales, inversions etc, and recitals of three pieces. Nikita aced her assessment with a whopping 92% and continues to amaze me with her level of musicality, commitment and perseverance.
You are an absolute star sweetheart! A massive congratulations to you! I am very very proud of you and love you heaps ❤️ Well done! 🏆🥇🎊

Everyone, meet these two cuties, Charles and Sadie! This brother and sister duo have joined the studio and have made quite the impression on their teacher! 🩷🩵
Sadie began piano classes a few months back and her piano playing has brought her out of her shell in an amazing way, and it has been a joy to see her explore the piano and witness her excitement and anticipation for each new song!
Her older brother decided to join the party, and in his first ever piano class, learnt to play 3 songs within 30 minutes!
These two are exceptional students and I so look forward to the days ahead!
Well done Charles and Sadie! You are Students of the Week!! 🩷🩵🎹🎶

Everybody, say hello to Poppy and Isla! 💞 These bubbly beauties have been part of the music studio for going on 3 years and are an absolute delight and joy in my life!
They cheerfully attend classes each week and always come with big smiles, big hearts and so much passion and enjoyment of their giftings and talents! 💞
Both girls are exceptionally gifted and have been playing the piano for a number of years. They recently started a joint vocal class and they are brilliant! They promise to be a hit at our annual showcase later in the year, and have amazed me with their consistent practise, accelerated progress and vocal abilities way beyond their years! 💞
I am so soo proud of you both and love being your teacher and friend! Well done gorgeous girls.. You are Students of the Week! 💞🎹🎙🎶

Everyone, meet the beautiful Laila 🩷
This precious young lady joined my studio towards the end of last year, and the strides she has taken this year, have been nothing short of breathtaking!
Laila began vocal classes as a very quiet and shy singer who had to be encouraged each week to sing a little louder 😉 In just a few short months, her range has increased dramatically, the power with which she sings is outstanding, and today's flawless rendition of "A Million Dreams" by this pint-sized beauty was sensational! 🩷
Laila, my sweetheart, there is a great future ahead of you and your gifting and calling goes far beyond that of an 11 year old. I am incredibly proud of you and it's a privilege to be your teacher and friend. Well done sweetheart, you are Student of the Week! 🩷🎙🎶✨️

Everyone, meet Hannah! This beautiful gal is a delight to my heart, a dream to teach and the very best start to my week each Monday! 🩷
Hannah started classes last year, and her progress is awe-inspiring! Her rhythm is as on point as an accomplished drummers would be, her ability to "hear" the music with her raw natural ear and gifting is way beyond her years, and her progress since the start of this year has been phenomenal! 👏
She is playing contemporary and worship songs at an exceptional level, and completing one, sometimes two, songs a week!
What amazes me most about Hannah is the sheer joy and passion for her music that fills the room each week. It is a privilege to be her teacher and I soo look forward to seeing how this talent and calling unfolds!
Well done sweetheart, you are Student of the Week! 🩷🎹🎶✨️

Everybody meet my precious treasure, Kunga! 🩷
This baby girl is an absolute darling and a gift from the Lord to her mama, her teachers and me as her music therapist 🩷
Kunga is a special needs student at a school here in Salt Rock and has attended sessions with me for two years. She was non-verbal, very shy and reserved in the early days, but this beauty sings Jingle Bells with great flair (see videos) has an incredible level of rhythm and ends every lesson with a boisterous version of Jabulani Africa! 🩷
It is an honour to not only guide my special needs students through music therapy, but also an immense privilege to speak words of life and blessing over these young lives. Her progress is astounding and a confirmation of the power of prayer, music, rhythm and dance! 🙏
Kunga, you are a gift to me and a joy to be with each week! Well done my sweetheart, you are Student of the Week! 🩷🥁🪇🎶

Happy Monday y'all!
Have a fabulous week! ❤️😍
