I've accrued a fair bit of life experience over the years, but the preponderance of my work falls into three broad categories: education, grant-writing and theatrical pr... Read more

Rather than focusing solely on music theory and breaking down compositions, we will be focusing more on the joy of playing and letting the technical aspects of playing guitar fall into place later. I’ve been giving guitar lessons now for about four years and have been playing guitar for just over 10 years... Read more
