Harmonious Joan – Vancouver, Fairview

Joan offers both group classes and private lessons. We have tons of fun and cover many genres of music: rock, pop, folk, traditional, jazz, with an emphasis on rock and roll from the 60s and 70s. I’m a big Beatles fan! Group classes (adults or teens 16+) are online with two levels: Beginner and Advanced Beginner. Classes are small, comfortably paced, interactive, and the atmosphere is supportive and casual. Private lessons (adults or children 8+) are in-person near VGH, or online if you prefer. These lessons are customized to your own level and learning interests. For more information email [email protected]. You can also visit Joan’s Facebook page www.facebook.com/harmoniousjoan.
