History

Wind of Change Academy was founded by Russian Pianist, Composer and piano teacher Yana Weaver in 2008 in Jacksonville, FL. Yana Weaver was born in Tula, Russia (the place where Leo Tolstoy is from). She started playing piano when she was 5 years old. Ms. Yana attended the School of Arts in Russia for 9 years (1988 – 1997) and went on to graduate from prestigious College in Russia: Music Conservatory by Glinka (1997 – 2001) with major in piano and music theory. Yana Weaver won several composition and piano awards during that time. In 2006 she graduated from Tula State Pedagogical University with distinction and in 2010 she got her PhD in Russian Philology.

In 2007 Yana immigrated to the USA and started her work as a piano teacher where she was providing private piano lessons at home. She performed as a pianist and accompanist through the years. Some of those performances were at The Bolles School, University Club, Cummer Musiem, Beth El Synagogue with cantor David Montefiore.
