David C.
I've played in bands and knew my way around some power chords, but I wanted to expand my horizons into more soloing and songwriting and lo behold Nick teaches both. He's as excited to teach as I am to learn and now I'm making music I couldn't for years. Thanks, teach!
Rory G.
He really knows how break down songs into easy to understand terms. I came wanting to learn odd time signatures and through his patience and knowledge I'm really playing music I love now!
Anne S.
I wanted the basics to get my songwriting off the ground and Nick gave me the needed lift. He's not just patient and thorough with his lessons, but he also makes it so fun! He's helped my confidence as a musician, and I enjoy playing and performing more than ever.
Jadryn O.
What took me weeks to learn by myself took only an evening with Nick. He understands the beginners mindset and has really helped me make major progress!
Chelsea M.
My 8 year old loves music so when she came to me asking to learn guitar I knew who I could go to. He really gets how to communicate with children and keeps focus and fun as priorities. My kid looks forward to her lessons, which makes it fun for all of us!

Beginner training plan
Your first lessonFirst lesson is the very basics. Tuning your instrument, fretting properly and how to strum properly i.e. good pick technique or hand placement for bassists
Lesson 11+Scales and soloing. The most fun stuff is always locked behind the boring part! Learn our major, minor, pentatonic and mixolydian scales as well as how to apply that to soloing, improvising and music writing!
Lesson 4-10

How it works
Here's where we'd learn chord structure. Barre chords and cowboy chords as people like to call them. This is the fun part where I can gear song lessons more to the students taste!
Lesson 2-3Simple riffs to get used to using all four fingers on the fret board and keep time. I.E. Wipe Out by Ventures, Henry Mancini "Peter Gunn"
