If performing is a rush, passing along technique and style is a gift.
It’s not what you know, it’s what you do with what you know. In giving lessons, I get as much as the students. Nurturing natural talent – refining skill with discipline – and discovering a unique sound – are the thrills of musical mentorship.
I train on acoustic, electric and classical guitar. Lessons can be conducted in my home or on site. I provide instruction in the following styles:
- Rock
- Pop
- Funk
- Blues
- Folk
- Country
- Classical (Classical technique and repertoire)
- Basic Jazz
The motivation for playing and practicing and getting better is feeling connected to the music. I teach the essential disciplines, but also connect with the student to create a custom course of study that unlocks the student’s passion and potential.
