Jo Jingles Music Centre

UHBA-JoJinglesMusicCentre
Jo Jingles is a franchise that provides a music and movement experience with an educational/therapeutic slant. The proprietor purchased the franchise for the Fermanagh and Omagh areas in 2009 and since then the business has expanded from the delivery of classes to early years children, to the development of music experiences for all age groups. The classes are carefully structured in a stimulating and secure environment where clients are taught to play percussion instruments, to sing songs and to find rhythm to move and dance to.

The long term business plan is to consolidate existing markets in schools and groups over a wider geographical base. With the recent addition of the specialist skills of the proprietor’s daughter, who holds a degree in music and sound, they intend to develop more bespoke programs.
