About
Do you desire a breakthrough in your guitar playing? Are you frustrated with online lessons, videos, DVD's etc that leave you more confused and asking more questions? YOU need a breakthrough NOW. I specialize in getting frustrated guitarists to the next level and I want to help you.
I have 30 years experience teaching and have taught over 2,000 students through my classes at Fresno City College. I now offer lessons and classes in the Clovis area. I have earned B.M. and M.A. degrees in guitar performance and have studied with many of the worlds greatest guitarists who often give master classes in my studio.
What is most important is that you get results. My passion is helping people just like you who are frustrated and want to progress and move forward to the next level and beyond in the shortest time possible. If that is you, let's get started today.
When students progress and breakthrough to the next level in their musical journey. When you take lessons with me you will also progress and have fun playing guitar.
