Private Lessons & Coaches in Broadlands, VA

From an early age, I tuned into the enchanting sound of the guitar in music, setting the stage for a lifelong love affair with strings. In the 5th grade, I delved into the world of classical guitar, laying the groundwork for my musical journey. High school offered a two-year guitar course, complemented by private lessons that further shaped my skills. My musical inspiration came alive through rock legends like AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, and RHCP, influencing my playing style profoundly. Venturing into fingerstyle guitar on acoustic, I expanded my repertoire to include pop songs. Currently, I thrive as a band member and delve into solo projects, all while finding joy in teaching and collaborative musical experiences. Join me on this musical journey, where the love for guitar transcends genres, and the pleasure of playing is shared with others!

My name’s Connor, and I’m a 20-year-old pickleball enthusiast with a 5.0 rating sponsored by Neonic Pickleball. I dove into pickleball just two years ago, despite having no prior experience with racket sports. Before that, I played nearly every sport imaginable, primarily shining as a national-level hockey goalie. I take pride in my understanding of body mechanics, which helps me break down complex movements; for instance, I often liken the weight transfer in a serve to skipping a stone and a backhand flick to throwing a frisbee.

"Honestly, Connor's lesson was quite helpful, especially in refining my shot placement and footwork. The focus on specific techniques really made a difference, and I feel more confident approaching the net now. Still, I think a bit more emphasis on strategy would be great next time. I'd be interested in trying another lesson soon.
