About Amaris
I am a versatile costume designer whose work includes theater, dance, opera and film. I have created classic characters such as Petruchio, Puck, and new and unusual creations including harajuku girls for Mikado, steampunk Wizard of Oz, and 1920s Little Mermaid.
I believes that costume design is a vital art. It is not illustration or embellishment, but a means for the communication of ideas. Successful design takes the story, characters, and historical facts, and translates them through an emotional and artistic lens.
I have designed costumes for many bay area venues including The Marin Theater Company, Cinnabar, Marin Musical Theatre Company and was a costume assistant/stylist for Avengers Grimm Movie directed by Jeremy Inman.
Her work with dance includes Myth and Machine, Kali Fierce Mother, and Sing Me Home Sick Blues for Carmen Carne

About Melissa
I have been teaching since 2006 on a variety of topics. I graduated with an BA from the University of Wisconsin. My degree is in History with and emphasis on East Asian history.
I've taught all age groups from age 2 up to retirees. My teaching experience includes one-on-one and group classes in a variety of settings. I've taught corporate classes, private lessons, small groups, and traditional classroom lessons.
We have a student-centric philosophy of learning. Lessons are generally relaxed and designed to work towards accomplishing student determined goals. While all students will study similar fundamentals regarding technique, theory, and performance, every lesson is as different as every person. Special focus on topics like music theory, self-accompaniment, composition, song writing, and home recording are available as well.
What are your personal goals? We'll tell you what you need to do to get there, and help you take the steps to achieve your aspirations.
Lessons with small children are more focused on just having fun while developing a good musical foundation, but we prefer for them to have as much personal ownership of their lesson as possible.

In addition to her assigned material, Cosette would often work on additional pieces for church, other functions, or just for enjoyment, and bring them to the lesson. I always like it when my students bring extra music like this to the lesson; it shows initiative and involvement with others around them. Cosette definitely enjoyed collaborating musically with her family and friends.
In my opinion, once study and learning has taken place, it is a musician’s duty to look beyond the mechanics and to serve others with their talent - which is something Cosette is already doing.
