My studio is located in southwest Fort Collins. I enjoy teaching students of all ages- it is never too late to learn! I incorporate different styles of music into the lesson depending on the student's interests. Theory and technique are also included. I believe that music is a fun and enriching experience that will last far beyond the excitement of the first lesson.
