About

I have had a passion for guitar as long as I remember. I love sharing the art of guitar with others to enjoy. We offer beginner and intermediate guitar instruction. Lessons can be recorded for your reference. Set and achieve goals. Play the songs you want. Gig referrals for students ready to perform.

It is an incredible feeling to see the improvment from each session to the next in my students and how they light up when something clicks for them.

    He is personable, patient and organized. I had zero experience with the guitar and he introduced me to scales, chords and even gave me homework so I had something to practice with when I went home. I am well on my way to being the next Steve Vai and I owe it all to Barry. I wholeheartedly recommend him as a guitar teacher for the beginner on up to the experienced virtuoso. I just wish I had more time so I can practice with him 5 days a week.

    Michael is awesome!! I was really excited about talking about music theory cause it was something I was trying to learn on my own, but I needed help. I can’t wait for the next lesson. I really believe I’m finally going to get the training I’ve been waiting for

    Frequently asked questions

    We first begin by discovering the students current level. Then follow by setting short term goals. Students then develop tools and practice routines with intructor to reach goals.

    Single lesson is a flat rate of $30. Monthly or weekly lessons are reduced respectively. 

    I have developed a passion for teaching as I have seen so many students take what they learn and become great players. 

    I have worked with many wonderful students. I usually learn something myself from each student that makes me a better musician and instructor.

    It never gets old watching a students eyes light up when they have a breakthrough and become that next level player they always wanted.

    Be patient and visualize what kind of player you want to become. This will help you set and reach your goals.

    Learning to be muscian is a lifelong journey. Choosing the right teacher is a huge step in that process. Choose a teacher you enjoy being around and feels like they are on the journey with you.
