About	John teaches students from ages 5 to 75. The studio is open from 3 pm to 8 pm M-Th, and 3 pm to 7 pm on Fridays. John has loved classical and pop music for many years and often wished that he could play his favorite tunes. He even tried to learn piano twice before, but failed both times. He had nearly given up when he heard of Simply Music. Simply Music was a life-changing program. John began lessons six years ago and he now has more than 100 songs of widely varying styles, including pop, classical, jazz, and even his own compositions in his active playlist. Simply Music has unlocked a gift that he didn’t even realize he possessed, and now John wants to show people of all ages and levels of experience how to unlock their innate musicality. As he loves to say, “If I can do it, anyone can!”
