Private Blues Guitar tutoring lessons Miami Gardens, FL.

Blues is a great style to start out in. Most experienced players can jam on the 12-bar blues progression and blues scale. Learn about the blue note for the first time or build on your knowledge to make things more interesting if you already know the basics.

- the 12 measure blues form and variations
- music history
- the 5 pentatonic scale patterns
- ornamentation: hammer-ons, pull-offs, slides, bends
- adding passing tones within scales
- the blues scale and it's modal equivalent: the country scale
- playing in various tempos and rhythmic feels
- alternating in position between blues and country scales (ala Allman Brothers)

Blues is the music from America. It has a long and exciting history and is played by many throughout the world. I generally start with easy blues songs and we work our way to blues greats like Robert Johnson!

Over fifteen years experience. If you wish to learn a specific song just let me know and we will learn it either during the current lesson or the next. Other than that we will learn standard tunes. You can choose to learn by ear, notation, tab, or some combination of these. Blues is a universal music and fun to learn.

I've taught hundreds of lessons, over the past ten years. I have written, recorded, and produced my own songs, performed solo, and with bands. I have over 35 videos, and many of them are tutorials. I am sure I can teach and inspire you. Would you like to learn how to read music, or simply play your favorite songs? Or, perhaps you'd like to understand music better in general. Of course I can teach you scales, music theory, songwriting, and improvisation.

I can help you in finally reaching that distant musical dream! Wether you are a beginner or just trying to get better, my approach will be creating fun and informative lessons focused on your interests. Guitar Tapping, Rhythm, Complex Chords, and Music Theory are my specialties. My experience is from being hired to play in multiple locations across Florida over the last 10 years. Reach out if you’re ready to jam!

We will use the design of the guitar to your learning and playing advantage.
Students like yourself learn to play beautifully in days, sometimes hours.

You are growing in a direction every moment.
Whether that direction includes excellence with the magical instrument we know as a guitar, or somewhere else, is a choice completely up to you now.

I will not only be your teacher, but I will teach you how to be your teacher.

I have been teaching for the past 8 years, and have worked with any age or skill level you can imagine. This has allowed me to create a methodology that will make sure you obtain the foundation you need in order to thrive at playing an instrument, but never lose track of what kind of music you're looking towards learning, and where your interests lie. I also have extensive performing experience having played and learned styles such as Flamenco (my first introduction to music), Jazz (I have a Bachelors and a Masters degree in Jazz Performance), Rock, Blues, Classical music and many more.
