Christina โChristyโ Follis
Owasso
Piano
My name is Christy Follis and I have been teaching piano lessons for 22 years. I have been
playing the piano for 42 years. I graduated from Cincinnati Christian University with a Bachelor
of Music degree, piano performance major. Likewise, I completed a Music Therapy Equivalency Program at Oral Roberts University, fulfilling the requirements and passing the CBMT exam to become a board certified, licensed professional music therapist in the state of Oklahoma, actively practicing music therapy throughout the Tulsa, OK area. Within piano lessons, I teach music theory as well as piano playing and technic. I try to make learning as fun and creative as possible. My teaching style and environment is very relaxed and casual. But, the students will learn a lot about "what you play" and "how you play it". My goal is for students to feel valued, seen, encouraged, and respected for their own musical achievements, strengths, individuality, creations, expressions, and accomplishments.

Piano
My goal is to equip students to continue enjoying music independently after leaving my studio. To that end, I strongly believe that students should learn to read music fluently, play with artistry through developing a healthy technique, and understand music theory.
Gloria N. Johnson

Piano, Music Composition / Songwriting
I teach piano because I love music and the benefits it provides an individual through expanding the creative side of their brain. Piano can be a lifelong enjoyment and satisfaction and I desire as a teacher to enable that to become a reality.

I love sharing the joy of music with people of all ages! Since becoming a licensed Music Togetherยฎ center director and teacher in 2022, it has been a gift to help families create musical memories with their newborns, infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. Every child is born musical, and it is a privilege to support parents and caregivers as they nurture their little onesโ musical development through singing, instrument play, and movement in playful, engaging weekly classes, all while building friendships and community with other families.

I have been a teacher for Excell Music for 6 years and presently teach at Monte Cassino. I have taught piano lessons for several Music Studios for the last 20 years and have enjoyed taking young and older students through what I call a music journey learning note reading and rhythm skills. I also love developing an ear for improvising and writing music for my young and older students alike. I got my start in teaching music at Saint Andrews ELS and Jenks Road Christian Academy where I enjoyed teaching all ages music classes and singing.Teaching has been one of the greatest joys of my life and I look to continue on in my Teaching career for many more years.

Hello! My name is Amanda Welch. I began teaching piano in 2007 and it has been my passion ever since! In my classroom, we learn music from the classics to contemporary composers to jazz to pop and Disney. Each lesson is tailor made to the student. We focus on something the student loves while also discovering something new. I also enjoy teaching improvisation and composition.
