Jazzymas Editora publishes educational materials designed for music students and teachers, based on a methodology developed by Ania Paz.
The materials focus on two main areas: modern harmony and Afro-Latin rhythms, aimed at contemporary musical skills. Additional resources are available for improvisation practice and creative musical development.

This methodology draws on Ania Paz’s extensive university teaching experience in the United States, the Dominican Republic, Peru, and Germany, as well as her doctoral research in modal and atonal harmony. Her international tours and travels have further deepened her exploration of diverse rhythmic concepts, enriched by close engagement with different cultures and languages, which have a direct impact on the content and pedagogical approach of these publications.
