What we love most is the community that DFJ provide, teachers who care and exude passion and joy in what they do and the children they teach. DFJ is all about connection, empathy, creativity, respect and collaboration. A true celebration of everyone’s unique talents and a shared passion for the friendships and fun that music can create.
