Saxophone Lessons in Oakland
Beginners to Intermediate - Ages 9+
About My Saxophone Lessons
Saxophone lessons were a transformative part of my childhood, and I try to give each of my students a meaningful experience. Being a creative musician, I encourage creativity along with proper technique and a clear understanding of the basics of music theory.
I have been teaching in Oakland for over 13 years and I love what I do. I am most pleased when I can inspire a student to love playing the saxophone and make it part of everyday life.
For beginners, I give each student a strong foundation in saxophone technique, the fundamentals of practicing and the physics of how the saxophone works.
Saxophone lessons for intermediate players focus on creating an individual sound, learning to improvise and developing a story with melody that can speak to the heart of anyone in the world.
I have been playing saxophone since the age of nine. After studying at the Arts Magnet School in Dallas, Texas I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Jazz Saxophone at the University of the Arts in Philadelphia. Today, I play with Melba’s Kitchen and recently released an album of my own compositions on BandCamp.
My studio is in Oakland’s Glenview District convenient to Montclair, Piedmont, Trestle Glen and Dimond
