Guitar Lessons
I teach fundamental guitar skills and folk fingerstyle. I love teaching beginners, both adults and children. I focus on getting a good sound without damaging body parts. If you want to end up playing classical or heavy metal, I can teach you how to do it without hurting yourself and help you find the specialized teacher you'll need next. I also teach ukulele and can start you out on banjo or mandolin. Here are some of my teaching handouts. Elder Music
I love to play for our elders, either solo or with Zeke Hoskin. Typically we will do a mix of singalongs, songs that were popular fifty or eighty years ago, and original songs we wrote for our parents. Here are two of our songs:

I have been collaborating with local luthier George Thomas, who is developing guitars designed to be played by people with smaller hands. His Cascadia is a small guitar with a big voice, and I have been bringing prototypes to retreats and guitar camps.
