A word from the Director of PJ Music Studios
Pamela Smirl
I love what I do and it makes me so happy to be able to share my passion with others. Since starting as a professional Music Teacher over 30 years ago, I’ve been privileged to see so many students discover their natural skills and abilities and reach results they never dreamed were possible. If that sounds like something you’d like to explore, get in touch.

We encourage students to engage with music as more than a set of skills to be mastered
After all, music making isn't just something we do or perform.
Music making is something we live!
​
Let's think of music making as a lifelong companion -
Whether you're a child learning to play the piano,
an adult picking up a guitar for the first time,
or someone who just wants to sing in the shower,
Music making can be something you continue to explore, enjoy, and learn from
throughout your entire life.
​
We see music making as more than the notes on a page
or the techniques we master
It's about how music enriches our lives.
How it connects us to ourselves
and to others
And how it serves as a tool
for personal awareness and wellbeing.
