“One special, relaxed culture you create for everyone is so beautiful and supportive- a rare quality in a human. Thank you for being a role model to me- for the greatness you empower. Thoroughly enjoyed your class” - Michelle Hohs

  • Dream it.

    It all begins with an idea or a dream of something bigger, of what could be. Maybe you want to learn cutting edge skills. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, Jo’s input and guidance can make all the difference.

  • Create it.

    When you have an idea and a picture in mind of what you want to make, knowing where to start and turning it into a reality can be very difficult. Having someone there who has been down the same pathway many times over and can help at every step is the best way to make things possible.

“The best thing about teaching is building trust, fostering a culture of community and creating an environment that can instil greatness in people”
