Private
Lessons

I've been teaching privately for over 20 years, and have experience teaching privately through such institutions as Seattle Drum School of Music, Manhattan School of Music, Edmonds Community College, University of Washington, and currently Seattle Jazz Ed and Cornish College of the Arts. I teach trombone and piano lessons, as well as composition, arranging and general improvisation concepts.  While I do have a set of rates for 45 minute and 60 minute lessons, I am very flexible with regards to individual needs. Feel free to call me at (206) 923-8271 or visit the Contact  page to discuss lesson possibilities.  For students wishing to set up regular lessons, the first lesson is given free of charge.
