About Us
Meet Johnathan Claiborne - Musician. Mentor. Messenger.
With over 45 years behind the keys and two decades of dedicated teaching, I bring more than notes and rhythms to my students — I bring stories, soul, and a deep belief in the power of music to transform lives.
A proud graduate of Houston Christian University, I’ve spent years onstage, in the studio, and in the classroom, helping students of all ages find their voice and unlock their creativity. Whether you're playing your first scale or returning to the piano after years away, I’ll meet you where you are — and guide you, one note at a time.
What Drives Me
Music is more than performance. It’s confidence. It’s connection. It’s healing. I teach because I believe every person has a sound that’s uniquely theirs — and my job is to help you find it, shape it, and share it.
What I Offer
I provide personalized, one-on-one piano instruction — in person or online — tailored to your goals and learning style. Whether you're drawn to gospel, jazz, soul, or classical, my lessons blend structure with inspiration, discipline with joy. This is more than music education. It's a foundation for life.
