The London Music Artist Academy is a place to learn and develop original and authentic music.
Our mission
We are a community of professional music artists and experienced coaches dedicated to helping others find and nurture their music and music careers with a focus on artistic expression and authenticity.
We believe we can provide a fresh, healthy and powerful contribution to Music Education and the Music Industry.
Our philosophy
We believe that anyone who desires to make music can do so, and should explore this noble endeavour. We believe in a holistic system of development as music artists and humans, where a multitude of elements contribute to the health of the body, mind and spirit.
Our teaching takes inspiration from a wide range of practices from Western classical and jazz traditions to Eastern philosophies.
London
This amazing city is one of the birthplaces of popular music; born from the transformation of blues and roots music into rock’n’roll — one of the most impactful cultural movements in modern history.
London remains a major hub of the music industry worldwide, with a multitude of music artists of every genre, music industry professionals, and performance opportunities.
In this uniquely rich environment, every music artist can develop their own creative voice, find the right places to perform, and connect to others.
We are committed to helping you in this noble endeavour of finding your place and connections in the world of music.
Music
The art of sounds. One of the most powerful, immediate and profoundly mysterious universal languages.
It is the art form we have been gifted to embrace. It’s our way to free ourselves and liberate anything we hold in order to express, heal and connect.
Sounds, frequencies, melodies, rhythms, words and harmonies are the ways to extend our humanity and our Soul’s journey.
Artist
The creative person who undergoes the quest to give freedom to their inner energies and express their inner voice.
We embark on a journey to free our creative spirit and liberate anything we feel and hold deep inside ourselves. It is a journey of healing and connecting that ultimately becomes a gift to the world.
Being an Artist is a life condition, a choice and a mission. It is a noble commitment and a fundamental truth of our common human condition.
Academy
It is a place where we support each other, explore and find new ways to develop.
It is a place to learn and expand, it’s where we feel safe in taking risks and sharing our journey with others.
It is where, under professional and experienced guidance, we work hard to reach our greatest potential.
It is a place where unique opportunities and precious connections are built.
It’s a place where creative self-realisation is cultivated and achieved.
