Becoming a proficient bass player involves so much more than just instrumental technique. A good bassist needs to be able to establish a groove. They need to be able to make a strong musical connection with their drummer. In many ways, the bass player is responsible for making the entire band sound good. This, along with a strong emphasis on technique, is the central focus of the curriculum that I use to teach bass guitar.

I tailor my lessons specifically to the student, depending on their favorite music and preferred styles. My students get a well-rounded bass education, training their ear and rhythm to become versatile players. Students of mine will be able to improvise from a very early stage, quickly putting them ahead of the game. I don't teach through a boring bass book curriculum (unless you prefer it!), that way we can have fun with our lessons and really hone in on the student's needs and interests. I can teach composition and music theory in a way that's accessible and understandable as it directly relates to the bass guitar.
