@humzahloane
I deliver inclusive music education, workshops and community projects for young people and underserved communities.
What I'm looking for
I've spent 17+ years as a recording artist, performer and songwriter, alongside 14 years delivering bespoke music workshops for young people and young adults, particularly those in SEN and NEET sectors.
Through my own company, Taoreta Ltd, I deliver music-making and performing-arts workshops across communities. My work includes projects such as Behind The Name, Samurai Nation EP, Shadows In Dust, Fight Da Climate, The Cost of Livin' and Starmer's Law.
As lead music tutor at Youth Education Project, I created inclusive syllabuses, lesson plans and progression routes for learners facing mental-health, behavioural and self-esteem challenges. I also contribute to Leicester's music education and community safety through City Music Network, the Violence Reduction Network and the Community Leaders Network.
