About	http://www.risenshine.com.au http://www.jendeness.com I am a professional singer/songwriter and recording artist, and am passionate about sharing the joy of singing and music through both performance and in helping others discover the joy of singing and making music. I have been teaching singing, song writing and performance skills to adults and children for over 25 years and teaching Simply Music for 4 years. I love to share this amazing playing based method, as it so perfectly aligns with the way I teach singing and performance. Simply Music is a fun, affirming, encouraging and exciting approach to inspire music and song as a life long friend for each and everyone of us.
