It ain\u2019t always easy being zapped by the creative wand, so these workshops aim to introduce you to a musical tribe of peers and professionals, as you are guided towards making the very most of your original piece. Remember \u2013 if you didn\u2019t exist, neither would your creation, so be brave and share it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your age is irrelevant (as long as you\u2019re 10 or above), and as long as you throw yourself with gusto into the weekend and soak up everything it offers. You and your musical output are totally unique. YAMI aims to harness that and add to your quality of life and future career path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
