Our Story
Hello and welcome - I’m CJ Stout, owner and founder of Shoreline Music Lessons.
Working in Early Intervention settings for the last 10+ years has shown me many things, chiefly that music activates the brain of every child. A lifelong musician and experienced Special Educator, I recognize the power of learning music to effect positive, lasting, and meaningful change in the lives of all children. I use a simple, intuitive, and direct curriculum called the Musicolor Method.
A Shoreline father of two, I graduated at the University of Washington with an M. Ed. in Early Childhood Special Education in 2013 and became a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) shortly thereafter.
I look forward to the places your child will go as they explore music.

"CJ is so incredibly patient, and genuinely positive. He sees kids unique talents and motivations and works to embrace and challenge them. My daughter is loving learning music after having been so negative about many other things she initially wanted to try. The Musicolor method seems to work really well to take the complexity down for younger kids."
