Hands Together Music Studio

Big changes ahead... we are expanding to serve 2 locations!!

Kitchener-Waterloo, ON
Martensville, SK

Our three lovely teachers - Sara, Emmy, and Winnie - will continue teaching our talented, creative musicians in KW.

Teacher Courtney will be expanding services to Martensville, SK this coming July!

She will greatly miss seeing her ON students in-person, but will enjoy seeing some faces virtually, and still connecting with families as the Studio Owner!

With any big change, comes a lot of mixed feelings, but we are excited to see the student community grow and thrive!! Thanks KW community for being the place where it all started, and here's to welcoming more SK students to our studio!

If you're located around Martensville and interested in lessons, send us a message! :)

Student Spotlight goes to HAZEL!!

Hazel plays the very famous “Opalite” by Taylor Swift! She’s only been learning this for a week, and it’s already coming along beautifully! Hazel has shown a great amount of creativity this year, using her skills learned in lessons to do a Taylor Swift duet as a class project! I love seeing kiddos apply their learning to their unique interests and passions!

Hands Together for Hazel!!

Student Spotlight goes to LUCILA!!!

Lucila has been learning “The Wind” as a potential repertoire selection for her Level 2 RCM Exam this June! She flows through the broken chord patterns with ease and ends with fantastic dynamic awareness!

Hands together for Lucila! 👏

Student Spotlight goes to... HENRY!

Henry is a young composer with a thorough understanding of how to write cute little musical questions and answers! By adding some staccatos and rests, Henry made "The P**f Song" come to life!

Henry created this little tune as part of our studio composition project! If you are a student who wants to write a song for our year end composition book, chat with your teacher soon to start working on your submission! We can't wait to hear it!

This past fall, I (Courtney) posted a little medley of what I predicted would be the most common songs played in our studio! Well... I missed the mark a bit! Thankfully, I have my young students to remind me what's cool these days!

So far this school year we have heard many beautiful, creative renditions of "Fate of Ophelia" by Taylor Swift and "Golden" by K-Pop Demon Hunters! I would also argue "Soda Pop" by K-Pop Demon Hunters is a close runner-up!

Here is teacher Courtney playing Fate of Ophelia x Golden! I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoy hearing my students cover these songs! :)

Student Spotlight goes to FELIX!!

Felix is a talented pianist, vocalist, and performer! Here he plays the famous Maple Leaf Rag, captivating his audience with a beautiful opening arpeggio, followed by a fun, bouncy melody!

Hands Together for Felix!! 🎹🎤👏

Exciting news! NEW RELEASE!

For those of you that loved Mahoro’s Music, I now introduce to you… SHEMA’S SONG!

This little rhyme-along book was inspired by helping my students write their first compositions! By following three main steps—key, time, and tempo—their beautiful ideas came to life!

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, the book stresses the importance of writing from the HEART! 💕🎶

DM to order! $15

Student Spotlight goes to CLARA!!

Do you recognize this catchy tune?! Here, Clara plays the misterioso “Hedwig’s Theme,” reflecting its mysterious, chromatic character very well!

Hands together for Clara! :)

You’ve already done the hard work, Liam! Today you get to shine! 🎹 ✨

Student Spotlight goes to siblings COHEN & QUINN!

Can you believe they wrote this cute little duet?! With its silly staccato character, the duo named it “Stinky Toes” to give the audience an extra giggle! In all seriousness though, these two worked hard to make sure they stayed in time, balanced dynamics, and listened to one another!

Are you a student interested in being a part of our 2026 Composition book? Talk to your studio teacher today to get started! We love hearing your creativity come to life!!

WOW! We are just so proud of all our students who shared their musical gifts at Luther Manor and Village at University Gates these past two evenings! We loved meeting all the residents and hearing their stories of how music has brought them joy throughout their lives! We are so happy to be even just a small part of that story ❤️❤️❤️

Congrats students! Have a wonderful holiday season and don’t stop sharing that music! 🎶
