Instruments: Guitar, Voice, Music, Electric Guitar, Classical Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

For students who are just beginning to learn guitar, aside from teaching said students how to properly hold the guitar, I provide fun single note exercises from open and first position to help them get comfortable with the top of the neck. Also teaching the students different parts/sections of the guitar (example pickups, body, neck, fretboard, nut, etc. For more advanced students I assess their skills and playability to see what they know or don't know and then work from there.

From the plan we determine what we'll be learning. Some things may or may not be core or necessary to thier path of learning what they'd like to learn. Read More

I am passionate about music. It is so important in my, and my family's life. I am so thankful that I was fortunate enough to be able to take music lessons, when I was a child, and so thankful that I loved it enough to practice. There is nothing like music in the universe. For the individual it creates a connection between your mind, body, spirit and soul, that is so unique and complex. Read More
