First lesson is free! Do you dream of playing simple songs on the guitar? Maybe you want to play campfire songs with your family, or perhaps jam with your musician friends? Reaching those goals will be hard if your guitar lessons aren’t clear and straightforward. I’ve seen many people end up with the wrong teacher, quit lessons, and end up convinced they don’t have any talent. Worse, they’ll think learning guitar is totally impossible. That’s terrible! I don’t want that to happen to you! I am to help you learn guitar in the easiest, most pain-free way possible. In fact, I aim to help you learn guitar on just five minites of practice each day. You’ll get simple, sustainable practice plans, a teacher who matches your style and vibe, and a customized path that helps you play guitar your way. Your first lesson is free because I want to get to know you and what you want in detail. If I know what you want and how you work, I'll feel justified in asking for payment. You lose nothing by scheduling a first lesson with me.
