I love Calista ’s studio. it is full of music vibes, guitars and all kinds of instruments on the wall, the whole setup looks beautiful. he’s helped me with phrasing and speed, especially for classic rock. Lessons feel more like jam sessions than classes, which I love.

When my introverted teen began guitar lessons with Calista in Charlotte, NC, I hoped for a spark of interest. Through his patient instruction and incorporation of favorite songs, that spark ignited into a burning passion. Now, music has become a cherished part of my child's life.

Learning from Calista in Preston Heights has been a game changer. he helped me improve fast by focusing on posture, finger control, and pop style phrasing even my old acoustic sounds great now.

If you are also thinking of making some time for yourself and learn guitar in West Aurora, then here is Calista , who takes classes online, and his methodology of taking classes online is so impressive. he is a 5/5 for someone who is juggling between work and happiness.

We've been focusing on phrasing-focused ballad guitar classes, and it's been really thrilling. Calista also records our practice sessions too and has taught me few notes. highly recommend him.
