I will share fun and efficient ways to practice so that you get immediate results. If desired, I also guarantee you will be playing a blues and improvising within a maximum of 6 weeks as long as you practice at least 10 minutes, three times a week.  You will have the option of playing along with recordings minus your part so that you can experience the joy of ensemble playing early on in the safety of your own home. I love creating small ensemble groups of students at similar levels and arranging concerts at regular intervals.

I think it is important for a musician to have a healthy balance of technical practice and fun practice. Therefore a student will always be encouraged to keep up on their technique routines and scales, but also to make music THEY find rewarding in every practice session. Of course, the technique is necessary to play this music well, but the love for music they develop is necessary for them to want to pick up their instrument and play in the first place. Read More

I have learned several approaches to the instrument from various teachers. I believe that to understand the instrument and command the instrument takes firstly knowing your own body and secondly knowing the way you learn. Myself and the student will progessively grasp this understanding through certain exercises such as journaling or whatever we may come up with! This is a checklist for being a stud at Trumpet: Get that air goin', and the blood pumpin'! Read More

I try to strike a balance between encouraging enjoyment and inspiring the desire to work hard. It's important to me that my students set ambitious and realistic goals, taking care not to burn out and always to enjoy what they are doing. While playing music means something different for everybody, excellence is something that everybody is capable of. I don't believe in talent to the extent most people do. While some people might start out with a little bit more, hard work beats talent by multitudes. Read More
