Dear Musician, This is not a transaction, it's a relationship...
There are infinite ways to get information about how to play an instrument or how to appreciate music.
But if you are also looking to integrate scholarship and technique with personal growth,
to learn how to listen,
to acquire tools for thinking bigger,
to ask better questions,
to transform technique and artistic expression,
to have a champion who celebrates both your progress and your creative risks,
to optimize your practice strategy,
to connect knowledge to application,
to engage in social learning opportunities,
to broaden your horizons,
then I can guide your development.
I will guide you as a distinctive person towards applicable knowledge, a practice of conscious listening™, and personal expression.
Why Now?
If you are browsing my studio webpage, you must have some innate desire to grow your artistic intelligence and exercise your creativity muscle. Life is short. There will never be a better time. I will help you strategize a way to pursue your personal goals. Schedule a call.
Connect with me and with our warm community of inquisitive, self-motivated, open-minded adults who love making musical connections and evolving their musicianship!

"I would not be the person I am, going to the places I am going, if it were not for you. You have taught me about dedication, humility, curiosity, strength...balance, and believing that the impossible might just be possible. I took your lessons of relaxation and applied them to my entire life, and my love for life augmented so much more because of it." - Jessie
