What really helped me is your use of "subconscious songwriting" and using your intuition, not worrying about if it's good or not, not worrying about being perfect.......
Don't let your fear stop you from expressing who you truly are!
Unlock your creativity!
As a creative/ highly sensitive /dreamer, you know that embracing your joy for playing, singing and songwriting and finding time to express your emotions is so important..... but it's always put on the back burner!
It's easier to prioritise others than admit you are stuck in perfectionism and have lost that child-like confidence and spirit you once had.
Some days you are an emotional wreck and don't know where to start, but you know there is more to your life, and you know time is ticking, and if you don’t unlock your truth, you never will!
What if you could walk out of the darkness and into the light?...
-
To be able to write a song you were proud of
- To know the style or genre that suits your voice
- To be able to improvise and release all your feelings on the piano
-
To feel joy and hope again
- To find an inner confidence that would have you say "YES" to new opportunities!
Charlotte re-discovered her creativity again!
After working 9-5, Charlotte a keen singer, found herself lost in a male-dominated musician world. Over the time we spent together, she learnt how to lean into her sensitivity to harness the power of songwriting and overcame her imposter syndrome
There are 3 common myths that
will keep you from learning to sing and play piano fast!
It takes up too much time!
It doesn't have to! You can spend as little as ten minutes a day practising and see BIG results. The biggest hurdle is actually perfectionism. But here is the thing, the less time you spend in your head and more time taking action the faster you will improve.
You feel you are not good enough
We compare ourselves to others and think we don't belong here! We are just starting out and can't play or sing the ways others can. But the truth is we all have to start somewhere! and your "not good enough" might be someone else's "I wish I could play or sing like you!" Don't let your insecurities stop you from learning and improving. Mistakes are Must-stakes.
It's too complicated
It doesn't have to be! You can sing and play a song with ONE NOTE! providing you get the right rhythm. Imagine never having to rely on someone to accompany you! Or Imagine being able to make any song sound like your own? Learn how to create simple arrangements on the piano to accompany your voice! Its that simple.
Soul Searching After Lockdown
After lockdown and finalising a divorce, Deborah started to do some soul-searching and wanted to rekindle her love for music. She initally struggled with reading music and the theory but after "ExpressYour Truth" Was able to easily sing and play
Single Mum of three [Including a baby], overcame her time issues!
Karen a professional singer, came to me wanting to learn the piano. She was worried as a single mum with three young children she would not have time for the course. What she realised was profound!
A Note From Sam ...
Hey!! I'm a professional piano/vocal teacher, board-certified music therapist and professional singer/pianist/songwriter.
Since training at the famous BRIT school (Adele, Amy Winehouse) I gained a degree in music at Dartington College of Arts [Without reading music!] and more recently qualified with a Master's degrees as a music therapist at the University of the West Of England. I've spent over two decades working as a professional piano/vocalist travelling the world on various cruise ships and award-winning hotels. I was also fortunate to work alongside artists such as Sir Ray Davies, Eddi Reader, and Robyn Hitchcock at events such as The Meltdown Festival at The Royal Festival Hall in London UK.
I teach Children and Adults to sing whilst accompanying themselves on the piano so that they can feel confident about making music without relying on someone else. My students have ranged in age from 4 years old to 72 years young!
Finding peace in my creative process and trusting myself to create music I love has transformed my life and nothing gives me a greater reward than seeing others experience this same transformation in theirs.
Are you ready to break through feeling

Lynn was a great all-around musician when she first came to "Express Your Truth" but there was one thing she could not do! She was afraid to sing! Learning to sing and be confident singing in front of people became her biggest success. In fact, in the time we had together, she went from not singing in front of anyone to singing a solo around a bonfire with friends.
