Private Saxophone Lessons

Private lessons involve one-on-one instruction which allows the student to focus on their musical and professional goals. This focused study eliminates distractions that can exist in the large classroom settings and is one of the best ways to continue refining and growing performance skills.

Mentorship, motivation, encouragement, reflection, and periodic check-ins regarding the student’s relationship to their instrument and their musical growth are important aspects of my instruction. By the end of each lesson, each student should leave feeling musically motivated and with a deeper understanding and betterment than the prior lesson.

Private Lessons are available in-person, for those in or near the Ellensburg area as well as online.
