PlayReady Music

I have been notoriously nervous of the process of learning a string instrument, and how to jam with others, until David came into my life. Before I knew it, like in five minutes, I was playing the ukulele with him on the piano, I was jamming! This was so gratifying for me. He created a safe and playful atmosphere for me to come out of my musical shell and have fun, take risks, and learn something new. Playing and learning from him allowed me to bring out my flute. This was a big deal for me because in the past my classical flute was very structured and formal. With David, I was gifted the freedom to throw the formality out the window and jam, get funky with it. And boy did that feel good! The anxiety of trying to get every note or rhythm correct was replaced with the joy of a positive learning experience. David not only successfully helps a person learn how to play musical instruments but inspires a body to create one’s own music. This I find to be a rare and crucial element in a teacher. David is an amazing teacher. He connects the heart and the brain, settling the body, giving an example of freedom to play.

Thank you very much for  rocking with my son, he’s getting his sparkle back.

“Paul can’t wait for his weekly lesson.  Its also too short for him and he really wants him to stay longer!  This is awesome because other music teachers told me 7 year old boys usually won’t have the attention span to learn more than 30 minutes.”

“My daughter really likes David, she looks forward to her lessons and is motivated to practice. In 3 months, she is playing songs already. I am impressed!”

“I’d recommend David to any aspiring musician, regardless of skill level or experience. Before this year, I’d never taken a music lesson. After only a lesson or two, I had learned enough to play a few songs which immediately got me more inspired to go back and learn more.”

“David was such an amazing and patient teacher. I had zero background in guitar but by the end of class 2 I was able to play a Beatles song!”
