You know you want to be amazing at Modern Calligraphy but...
...the tools JUST WOULDN'T WORK!
...your
self-doubt is holding you back.
...you tried YouTube and yours never looks like their calligraphy.
...it all
looks quite intimidating!
...you're struggling
to prioritise yourself enough to give it a try.
What if things could be different?
How amazing would it be if you had a clear system to follow that made learning modern calligraphy easy and fun!
Having an easy to follow system that helps you develop beautifully consistent calligraphy makes your journey fulfilling and enjoyable. Modern calligraphy is pretty easy when you have the right technique!
What if someone showed you how to avoid all of the pitfalls so your modern calligraphy journey was smooth?
Experiencing endless pitfalls can be really discouraging when learning something new. Instead imagine having someone to guide you who has done the hard work already to identify the pitfalls on your behalf... you get to skip straight to the fun.
How amazing would it feel to have a reason to prioritise your wellbeing so you can show up in the rest of life?
Imagine having a hobby that helps to slow you down and soothe your nervous system. Imagine loving something so much that it makes you find the time to do it regularly! Goodness, you might even want to make a living from it!
If you’re finding yourself nodding along to all this, you’re not alone…
There is a reason Modern Calligraphy is gaining in popularity. The mental health benefits are well-documented and with a better understanding of the need for self-care, it's no wonder that modern calligraphy is all the rage. If, however, you try to self-teach, doubts can appear when your lettering is not quite as beautiful as you imagined it might be! I remember it well myself... This was my first attempt: straight into the alphabet, no guidelines, inconsistent shapes...
It doesn't have to be this way for you! Learning modern calligraphy with the correct structure and process allows you to enjoy watching your own skills flourish in a short period of time.
Which is why I’m soooo excited to introduce:

What Previous Calligraphy Students Said:
"I completed Jane's Modern Calligraphy course online, just after getting engaged - I am always on the look out for ways to DIY and was really intrigued to incorporate calligraphy into my wedding.
Jane was engaging from the start and made a remote group of strangers feel like best friends. The worksheets were stunning and of such a fab quality - you could tell Jane has put her heart into her passion and was always on hand for support and helpful feedback.
I took any opportunity to practise my learned calligraphy skills - which built my confidence in other lettering (even physical!) - and was so excited to use them as part of my wedding stationery and signage. There is no better feeling than being able to respond, 'Thanks, I made it!'.
Jane was always cheering us on and always around for advice and support (or just a chat!) long after the course ended."

Why Should you believe me?
Because I've
been there!
I was once exactly like you. I was desperately looking for the right creative outlet, to help calm my nervous system while working in a dreadfully stressful job!
I had a lightbulb moment when I discovered modern calligraphy... WOW this is THE HOBBY for me! But it didn't take long to realise I wasn't getting anywhere with the free YouTube videos where they made it look so easy. I just couldn't do it alone. Taking a proper course with support allowed me to feel good about my progress. In very little time, modern calligraphy became my lifeline when all around me was crumbling. Every day I look forward to the evening when I could get the pen back in my hand.
3 1/2 years on and I have left that stressful job (I was a secondary teacher) and enjoy helping more and more people to fall in love with calligraphy. I am 100% invested in your journey because I want you to feel the joy just like I do!
