The Artist
Anne Young's Coaching Philosophy

Creativity generates significance at all levels. I personally feel this to be the engine that drives the human being to our best realization. Music, as a very special gift and art, augments our potential communication and allows emotional subtlety through its language that transcends all other arts and yet can support all other arts as a beautiful and enhancing partner. The depth of feeling communicated by sound is absolutely essential. What a wonderful world to explore. This is what I want to communicate to others through my own teaching and coaching as well as playing. MUSIC is my world view. What a marvelous language to learn to listen to, to share with others and through which to express our most important life experiences.
