Meet Laney Augustyn of MAXTRAX Music School, Hilton's new piano teacher with a focus on making music FUN. Laney says' "I have been playing the piano from the age of 9. Some of my high school years were spent in the UK, where I continued to develop piano skills, and was part of a local music outfit.
I began teaching pre-school children and private students in 1997. In addition to the music, between 2000 & 2007 I ran a Section 21 Trauma Centre & headed up the SAPS victim support.
In 2009 I opened up an Agency in Sandton, Johannesburg where I was able to offer sax, drum, guitar, piano, singing, harp & flute lessons. The agency also provided live entertainment for any function - Jazz bands, Solo Artists, Blues Bands etc.
Early in 2014, I had a nasty fall resulting in a broken back. Shortly after this my husband passed away. I came to Hilton where I have family, and after a lot of healing, fell in love with the village and decided to stay."
We welcome Laney and wish her much success growing MAXTRAX Music School, her Hilton based business, in the KZN Midlands.
