About Little Musos
Nurturing a lifelong love of music in every child.
Welcome to Little Musos
Where music comes alive through fun, creativity and connection!
We believe music is for everyone and our goal is to make learning joyful, achievable and meaningful for ALL ages. From toddlers discovering rhythm for the first time to adults rediscovering their love for music, we create experiences that inspire confidence and spark imagination.
The Heart of Little Musos
Meet the Founder
Courtney Little is the heart and driving force behind Little Musos - a passionate musician, educator and mom on a mission to make music education joyful and accessible for every child.
With a Bachelor of Education and over a decade of teaching experience, Courtney has taught everything from Foundation Phase music to Senior Phase Music including teaching marimba, choir and drama. She has also written musicals and several choral verses which are published in the national SADASA collection.
Before founding Little Musos, Courtney taught both locally and abroad, spending time in Thailand and Vietnam teaching English and music. Her experience across age groups and cultures inspired her to create a program where learning music is hands-on, creative and confidence-building.
Outside the classroom, Courtney performs with her family band, Kith and Kin, at weddings, restaurants and corporate events across KZN. Her deep love for music, family and community shines through in everything she does.
āMusic should never be intimidating - it should be joyful, expressive and for everyone.
