I am a firm believer in appropriate fundamentals are the key to stronger and healthier playing skills. In my lessons, I will encourage many types of fundamentals to round-out students playing abilities at the level which is most appropriate at the time. I work by the "Not good, Not bad, But better" philosophy. I will always focus on what the student needs and the best way for me to streamline their learning to achieve their playing objectives.
