Sam Whitesell helps adults reconnect with their love of music by teaching piano lessons online where groups are able to overcome experiences from their youth that may have been difficult, discouraging or even traumatic, so that they can give their talent and creativity the opportunity to thrive.
If you played the piano when you were young, maybe you loved that opportunity to express yourself and create music, or perhaps those memories are more painful and you left music behind as you matured and took on other focus. What if you had the opportunity to rediscover and reignite your love of music, and find community in the process?
Sam supports his students in their journeys of self discovery and creative fulfillment through group lessons held online, holding their hand through the process of learning to trust and follow their own deepest musical desires and to tap into latent artistic expressive abilities they had forgotten.
In this episode we discuss:
● How increasing your body awareness can bring more joy and ease to making music,
● Why perfectionism can stifle creativity, and how to ease up on yourself,
● The irony of struggling with stress while avoiding the very creative practices that can bring relief,
● The benefits of learning and coaching with groups,
