Flute Lessons at JAM

Jupiter Academy of Music Announces
FLUTE LESSONS
with
KRISTIN RENEE HURLEY

Born in Rockville Centre, on New York's Long Island, Kristin started taking flute lessons at the age of nine. She holds the degrees Bachelor of Music and Master of Arts in Music, both from Florida Atlantic University, and is pursuing her Ph.D.

She studies chamber music with Dr. Ken Keaton, playing in a flute and classical guitar duo. She also performs in a classical chamber group, The Woodwind Trio of the Palm Beaches, who perform in area schools, churches, museums, country clubs, hospitals, private parties, wedding receptions, and other events in and around Palm Beach County.

Ms. Hurley teaches students of all ages, specializing in flute instruction for beginning and intermediate students. She teaches at area elementary and middle schools, and at FAU's TOPS Junior Band Camp.

Kristin is the proud coordinator of The Drs. Andrew and Bradford Ress Healing by Music Project based out of FAU's Boca Raton campus. Music students perform for patients in clinical settings all over the tri-county area. She is a passionate advocate of music education, noting that any involvement in music-making can be beneficial mentally, emotionally, physically and socially. She firmly believes that we do not yet fully understand the power of music as a creative outlet and as a therapeutic tool.

Kristin Hurley is now accepting students for FLUTE at Jupiter Academy of Music on Thursday afternoons. CALL NOW!
