My journey through psychology and psychotherapy revealed the struggles of countless individuals, pointing towards the need for alternatives to talk therapy or medication. I found this alternative in music, a pivotal part of my life and a refuge during my own struggles. While teaching piano and working in a music store, I met many individuals who longed for the time or means to learn a musical instrument. I saw others invest significant sums of money and years of their lives, often not fully enjoying the process due to the steep learning curve that comes with many mainstream instruments. Finally, I realised that playing music should be about healing and self-expression, not just mastering skills. It should be a beautiful, transformative experience that is effortless and accessible. With this newfound understanding, a spark of curiosity was ignited in me. I started a personal exploration, seeking an instrument to manifest this fresh perspective I'd come to appreciate. Then, like a song breaking the silence, I stumbled upon the kalimba. Its simplicity, power, and ample space for creativity struck a chord within me. The kalimba was easy to learn yet so rewarding, and I was instantly hooked! I felt a deep-seated desire to share this magical experience with others. This was the beginning of Little Kalimba Shop, the platform through which we strive to make the healing power of music accessible to all.
