Guitar Lessons with a Berklee College of Music Educator

Hi! I’m Ethan, a guitarist, performer, and teacher with a degree from Berklee College of Music. I’ve played major venues like Mercury Lounge in NYC with my band, The Wizard & The Wize, and have years of experience in performance, songwriting, and music education. My approach blends solid technique with creativity, mindfulness, and spiritual depth. I integrate practices like Qigong and breathwork into my teaching to help students not only improve technically but also connect more deeply with their instrument, body, and inner voice. Whether you're a beginner or a more advanced player, I tailor each lesson to your goals—offering guidance in guitar, songwriting, improvisation, and self-expression. Music is more than notes—it's a path to presence, confidence, and personal growth. I’m here to support your journey, wherever it begins.

My teaching method is rooted in the belief that every student has a unique voice and learning style. I utilize a variety of tools and resources to help you on your musical journey. I create a personalized, supportive environment that encourages both technical growth and creative expression. Lessons combine clear instruction in theory, technique, and rhythm with space for improvisation, songwriting, and exploration. I also incorporate breath work, posture, and energetic movement to help students release tension and develop stage presence. Whether you prefer structured goals or a more intuitive, flow-based approach, I adapt to what best serves your progress. I aim to help students build confidence, deepen their connection to their instrument, and stay inspired long-term. Every session is about more than just learning guitar—it’s about unlocking musical potential in body, mind, and spirit.
