Here is some insight into my approach, background and philosophy:

There is nothing in the world as rewarding, satisfying, gratifying, joyful, sexy, spiritual, engaging, interesting and entertaining as playing music (especially true when it’s done well).
Music provides the most bang for your buck in terms of fun fulfillment, personal satisfaction, emotional rewards, creative options.
Learning to do anything well takes guidance, direction, support.
The fastest, deepest, most efficient way to learn is to study with an experienced Ninja master.
I believe in slow, graceful, methodical, loving, organized musical growth, refining and polishing a stone into a gem.
I believe in variation, adaptation, improvisation and patience in the learning and teaching process.
You are never too old to learn!
