Meet Terra
Welcome to Earth Song Studio, LLC! I’m so happy you’re here. If you're in Northwest Iowa and looking to start, or progress further, on your musical journey, you’ve come to the right place! And if you’re not in Northwest Iowa, I’m still glad you’re here! Thanks to the internet we are not bound by geography.
I founded Earth Song Studio in 2023 after I went through a rather traumatic experience while teaching in the school system. You can read more about that in my blog, but through that experience I had to start asking myself: Did I envision teaching in schools full time? And my answer was no…so I started letting myself dream.
Earth Song Studio, LLC is the product of that dream. I have been “doing weddings and funerals” for a long time, and have always been asked if I do piano or voice lessons–which I never had time for while teaching and momming full time. Prior to opening my studio, I gained 14 years of classroom teaching experience as a 7-12 Choir Director and biannual Musical Music Director. Through that time, I received my Master’s degree in Music Education, which spurred my interest in Music Literacy and alternative music education courses like Songwriting and Music Technology. I gained expertise in preparing students for both Iowa’s Opus Honor Choir and All State Choir, with which my students had an incredible amount of success!
I enjoy working with all ages! It is never too late (or too early!) to start your journey toward independent musicianship. Music has always been my greatest passion, and to be able to create, perform, and connect with others in this way is a pure delight!
When I’m not making music, I am spending time with my three beautiful children and sometimes even my husband! I am often found with a book in hand, or trying a new recipe in the kitchen–or the best of both worlds: Reading a cookbook!
I can’t wait to connect with you and be a part of your musical journey!
