My musical journey began at the tender age of 13 when I ventured into the world of Classical Guitar at the conservatory. My passion for music deepened as the strings whispered the tales of melodic beauty. In my college years, I delved into the intricacies of Harmony and Music Theory, broadening my musical palette. Private lessons with Fusion Players and Jazz aficionados added a touch of versatility to my skills. Eager to expand my horizons, I set foot into the prestigious halls of Berklee College of Music to explore the realms of Electric Guitar. Now, armed with diverse influences and a rich educational background, I'm here to share my expertise with you. Whether you're drawn to the delicate notes of classical compositions or the soulful improvisations of jazz, Rock, Blues, Metal or any style of your preference, ready to guide you on your musical odyssey. Let's make some musical magic together!

I have been studying with Jan for over a year now. I started out as a pure beginner. We started out with various exercises and techniques to help me understand the fundamentals and even help me truly understand if I wanted to continue. His advice, guidance and skills helped me to find the fun in learning. I am far from being a professional but Jan has helped me see how I can use guitar to help me relax and enjoy creating music. He works with me as an individual tailoring my lessons to what I can do but also challenges me to do my best.

I have been trying to play classical guitar since I was a college student in the seventies. I have tried other instructors as well as online courses. Nothing has enabled me to feel confident, so I paused my seeking of a competent instructor who really gets me. To summarize Jan has caused me to want to practice daily as I am now for the first time confident that I will learn to play! He has adapted his style to my needs, what more can you ask of an instructor

I’ve never played an instrument or had a music lesson. At 74 years old I decided I wanted to play the guitar. I Googled Jan he breaks music down so that I understood melody, harmony and rhythm. He is very patient and answers all of my questions. He not only teaches guitar playing but he also composes music. I’ve recommended him to friends who are accomplished musicians and they have been very impressed.
