World Heart Beat Music Academy Ltd

Who we are

World Heart Beat Music Academy in SW London, is a joyful, welcoming and innovative place, where young people, aged 5-25, are brought together with world-class musicians to share their love of music.

Our values underpin everything we do:

• A powerful commitment to musical excellence.
• A warm embrace of people, cultures and world music.
• A non-exclusive, non-elitist philosophy, with no financial barriers.

The charity, founded in 2009 by Sahana Gero MBE, promotes music as a universal form of communication – one that quite simply transforms the lives of young people. We nurture young talent by providing a richly diverse, unique and inclusive teaching environment, and offer a broad programme of music lessons, workshops and events.

Our open admissions policy ensures that there are no barriers, financial or other – we provide music education for all young people, offering free music lessons and instruments for those in need.

Rooted in education and based in SW London, World Heart Beat brings music and world-class musicians, from all over the world, to inspire and empower young people. Whether at our Academy, or at our state-of-the-art concert venue – opening soon – we transform lives through the power, love and sharing of music.

In the words of Sri Chinmoy, an inspirational man of peace who dedicated his life in service to aspiring humanity…

“We are all truly unlimited if we only dare to try.”
