About

Borne of a love of music and the desire to give back to the community, Footprints Music and Learning provides group and private lessons in their newly-renovated studios located on Yonge Street just north of Eglinton.

Drawing from a well of internationally-trained music professionals, Footprints is proud to offer lessons in piano, guitar, vocal, violin and drumming, for all levels of expertise.

Founders Alex Hobcraft and Rachael Shay, both born and raised in the neighbourhood, have realized their vision of providing professional musical instruction in a setting that manages to be stimulating and relaxed at the same time. (Not only are Alex and Rachael the founders but they are also students. Alex takes piano lessons and Rachael drumming. Even their daughter is in the Little Hands Big Hearts music program for ages 3-5.) The studios’ spacious feel and abundant natural light, along with tailor-made lesson plans, provide a motivating and compelling learning experience – both easy and fun. We welcome your musical journey.
