Hi, I’m Karen Janiszewski, but a lot of people just call me Kay.
I have a BM and an MM in Music Education. I have been teaching music for over 20 years and I own Music Room, a music studio/store near Buffalo, NY. I'm also a dancer, dance teacher, certified personal trainer and certified nutrition coach.
I have two passions in life. I help students who are passionate in performing arts experience limitless skills and enjoy every bit of the process along the way. I also help music teachers develop their craft further, while also teaching them ways to have the healthiest lifestyle possible, despite the teacher life being so hectic.
This space is the marriage between my passions for music and health and fitness and I'm beyond thrilled to share it with you.
