Acoustic Guitar with Joshua B.

I want to share my passion and knowledge of music with you! I've been involved with music for as long as I can remember, and being classically trained in piano & trombone for years as a young person set me off to teach others the love of music! I started teaching private lessons in 2003, and have worked in performance ensembles, recording studios, bands, and other assorted musical areas throughout that time. I've gained teaching experience through summer camps, private instruction, workshops, and online curriculum. *** Lesson Details *** Lessons are tailored to each student's individual goals, and can be as interdisciplinary as they may like.
