Brad M. says, "I started lessons with Anthony in December. Throughout my life I have had 3 guitar teachers before him, for as long as a year, and have never been better than I am right now (this is also in half the session time as previous teachers had me start with 1hr sessions). For the first time in my life I am confident to say "I play guitar," despite having started lessons when I was still in elementary school! His knowledge of the guitar, calm demeanour and method of teaching have me more comfortable than ever with a guitar in my hands. I'm confident transitioning between chords, as well as barre chords for the first time in my life! Oh, and now I can read music! Within the first month I was already able to start picking up and learning a few songs and now I can play most songs that I try to learn, picking up the chord progressions rather simply for most songs I attempt. Right now we are still progressing to get better each week, learning cool finger techniques and scales! After just a small time with Anthony I've developed a love and passion for playing the guitar, which has turned into an almost therapeutic experience right in the palm of my hands! Can't say enough good things about Anthony, and if your on the fence then I would say don't wait, start as soon as you can! You will be glad you did as right from day 1, Anthony will leave you amazed with what he can teach you!"See more

I am a guitar and piano player that has learned from amazing guitar teachers. I play at an upper intermediate level, which is all I need to achieve my singer/songwriter goals. But I can teach at a pro level. I was trained by a professional guitarist (Dominic Flynn on Instagram) who went to University of California for guitar and was trained by professional musicians. The teachings I learned from him are 100X more effective and efficient than any guitar coaching I had seen before. Same thing with piano. If you are looking to be able to improvise, jam, know theory, I will help! If you want to read sheet music then you may want to find another coach. I teach how to be an intuitive musician, not a robot musician! I also can teach theory on the bass if you are learning the bass.See more

Michael has the patience to work with people who may need a little extra time to absorb new material. He explains things clearly and will spend extra time going over challenging parts of a lesson. I’ve had numerous teachers over the last 15 years and he is the best."See more
