Jazzmeia seeks to share with students her self taught expression which brings about liberation, healing, and self love. Jazzmeia feels her unique expression helps to foster a deep and lasting connection with her listeners and, ultimately, is her gift to the art form. Jazzmeia emphasizes on what she calls the "Four Elements of Focus" The Art of Storytelling, Sing Your Own Song, My Stage Is My Altar, and Everybody's Got Style."
