6 Guitar coaches & instructors for lessons in Heritage Pines, FL

Finding my love for music at a young age, I started to play guitar at the age of 6. Quickly beginning private lessons, I studied classical, rock, and blues early in my journey, practicing up to 8 hours a day as a child. Eventually, while continuing guitar lessons, I taught myself to record and engineer productions for songwriting purposes. Late in high school, I began to teach groups of children from kindergarten up until 4th grade, and even taught private lessons to beginner children. In 2017, I was accepted to Berklee College of Music after auditioning on guitar. While there, I recorded guest solos for various artists, recorded in a multi-million dollar Berklee studio with my band, and, although delayed by the pandemic and other reasons, recently graduated in May with Honors. Since last year, I also auditioned for and joined the metal band, FROGG, and we have since recorded and released our debut album, Eclipse, which has sold out all physical copies and was met with positive reviews from critics.
