No words for Bava Melcher and her guitar lessons! Literally the best guitar teacher in Manhattan. She taught me phrasing, tension release and storytelling which has added so much personality and added life to my guitar solos!

Before I met Shukhrat , I was really scared of performing and playing guitar in front of people but with their guidance in visualisation and mental rehearsal, it gave me the confidence to play live debuts without any fear!
