About Jasmine
I am a piano tutor with 7 years of experience and a Bachelor of Music in Piano alongside a Certificate in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction from a university medical school program. I have taught over 275 students and I have a professional background in sport psychology consultation alongside music teaching, which is an unusual combination that has profoundly shaped how I think about performance preparation and mental skill development. I have written a short guide on mindful practice for pianists that has been downloaded several thousand times, and I occasionally deliver workshops on performance psychology for music schools and conservatories. I continue to perform publicly on piano in order to maintain direct experience of the performance challenges I teach students to manage.

My piano teaching has been significantly shaped by my parallel training in mindfulness and performance psychology, and I integrate these disciplines into every lesson rather than treating them as supplements to technical instruction. I open every lesson with a two-minute mindful arrival practice — simply sitting at the piano, placing the hands on the keys without playing, and attending to the physical sensations of the moment — because this transition from daily life to musical practice is almost never taught explicitly despite being crucial to the quality of what follows. My approach to practice methodology is research-based: I teach distributed practice over massed practice, interleaving over blocked repetition, and contextual interference over pure isolation, and I explain the research behind each recommendation so students practice intelligently by design rather than habit. The internal dialogue of a pianist at the instrument — the self-talk, the evaluations, the comparisons — is discussed directly in my teaching because it has a profound effect on learning speed and performance quality that standard technical instruction completely ignores. Failure during practice is reframed in my studio as information rather than inadequacy — students learn to treat an error as a data point about what needs more specific attention rather than as evidence of unsuitability. My approach to difficult passages involves a structured diagnosis protocol: we identify whether a difficulty is rhythmic, technical, harmonic, or memory-based, because each type requires a different type of practice to resolve. Performance preparation extends from the technical and musical into the physiological — students learn specific physical routines for managing adrenaline, slowing breathing, and grounding attention before walking onto a stage. My teaching goal is a pianist who can perform their best under the highest pressure they will realistically face.
