'..his absolute fine detail in how music, performance, emotion all come together hides a very, very acute technical understanding, and makes it accessible for everyone.

It really has been a pleasure hosting you and all the sessions that have happened have been exceptionally well achieved. Your approach is exactly what is required for the musicians here.

'Fantastic content and an incredible body of work that's gone into it all.'

I'm so impressed by T.L.'s self-paced course. This has gotten me to dig deep into themes that I really needed to for a while. I've done a lot of work on myself but T.L.'s insights and questions bring a whole new dimension to it all with an additional depth and wisdom. It's given me a major boost in my artistic practice.

'...T.L. gave my eye-opening views that helped improve my overall personality as a musician.'

My biggest challenges were learning to say 'no' and prioritising my mental health. I would pay attention to the smallest details and let it affect me negatively. T.L. addressed aspects of being a musician that no-one really talks about. We discussed mindset, getting over writers block, strategies to work with fellow artists and collaborators, performance etiquette and most importantly, self-care.

'..such a comfortable, co-creative and liberal space for professional, mental and emotional exploration and growth'.

T.L. is a magician!! Every session was filled with profound insight, information and expansive perspectives. He has a way of seeing things deeply at their core, sharing knowledge and providing solution in simple, natural and unique ways.

It was such a comfortable, co-creative and liberal space for professional, mental and emotional exploration and growth. He is a fabulous mentor and a mind-blowing artist himself and just a dynamic, kind-hearted and passionate human who leads by example.

'...resulted in an epiphany on how I needed to take courage and put myself out there.'

This was a synergetic experience where both the 'student' and the 'mentor' have the reigns to control the direction of the journey.

Active listening led to thought-provoking questions that pin-pointed some of the biggest challenges I hadn't even realised I was facing. And were intricately connected to my musical journey.

T.L.'s assignments and exercises sounded easy at first, but took more effort then I'd counted on once I started. But it never felt like instruction from a teacher to a student. More like a conversation between friends. And resulted in an epiphany on how I needed to take courage and put myself out there.

Something that really resonated with me strongly was how the interconnections between apparently separate topics like 'self-care', 'Being' authentic, 'finding your core', 'the why' or even spiritual aspects of music were addressed during the course. And all of it in context to the artists practice.
