ABOUT

LJMA was formed in 2014 by Laura Saggers with a purpose of developing exceptional, well-rounded musicians in an environment that is supportive, kind, and has no room for egos. Her teaching style is very much “tough love.”

 

The students know she adores them, and supports them wholeheartedly; she champions their successes and treats them as if they are a beloved sibling. With that, she also holds them accountable to the highest level that they are capable of and doesn't stand for excuses. 

​

In turn, the quality produced across the board is outstanding. Not just in one or two top students, but in all. The students leave the academy with a profound sense of achievement and life-long friends, many choosing to continue their musical journeys further. 

​

All LJMA teachers are trained to teach with this mentality. Many are alumni returning to teach while furthering their musical career.

​

When you are supported and loved, you thrive.
