Christine Edwards

With over 20 years of experience in music education and ministry, Christine Salazar brings a heartfelt passion for teaching and a wealth of professional expertise to every lesson. A graduate of Kennesaw State University (B.A. in Music Education) and Dallas Theological Seminary (M.A. in Media and Communication with a focus in Worship Arts), Christine combines musical excellence with a deep love for people, creativity, and the Lord.

Christine has served as Minister of Music in several Georgia (and Dallas, TX) churches, directing choirs, bands, handbell ensembles, and orchestras, and training musicians of all ages and backgrounds. She has also taught at the CanZion Institute of Music, mentoring future worship leaders in voice, piano, and ensemble work — both in English and Spanish.

Christine has years of experience teaching personalized music instruction in:

•  Piano
•  Voice (classical, contemporary, and worship styles)
• Guitar (acoustic and rhythm)
• Flute (beginner through intermediate)
•  Music Theory, Composition, & General Musicianship

Her teaching style blends strong technical foundations with creativity and fun. Each lesson is tailored to the student’s goals — whether learning for personal enrichment, preparing for performances, leading worship, or pursuing formal study. Christine believes music should be both a craft and a calling, inspiring confidence, discipline, and heart.

Fluent in both English and Spanish, she welcomes students of all levels and all ages (Kindergarten and up) into an encouraging environment that celebrates growth and musical discovery.
