I am very laid back and easy to get along with, and I feel that above all else music should be exciting and fun for the student, whether it be performing in recitals or shows or simply for one's own enjoyment.

This practice regimen should continue long after our scheduled lessons and should be one of many vital keys to your child's future successes. Read More
