For 25 years, I've guided aspiring guitarists, sharing my knowledge and experience to help them reach their full potential. Some of my students have gone on to be professional working musicians and landed gigs with Ziggy Marley, Gwen Stefani and many more. I will help you unlock your musical intution/creativity and give you creative ways to practice and learn songs , solos etc . I will also teach you ways to track your progress. I believe playing and learning music should be fun, and I make it easier on you to understand certain concepts from a technical, theoretical and practical point of view. \n\n  I accept beginner to advanced. I can tailor lessons to your needs , the style you want to play, and I can create assignments to help you reach your goals from a professional working musician's perspective. \n  You will find just after a short period how much you can improve your skills and feel the confidence to continue to your goal. \nMy teaching experiences have taken me through schools , clinics at music stores and workshops. I also coach bands , teach beginner to intermediate bass , and music production one on one or group. \n\n   A little about my work as a musician :\n\n   Over the years, I toured, recorded and played with numerous bands and artists such as, Carly Simon, Ben Taylor, Mike Keneally, Bryan Beller, Armande Sabel-Leco, Paul Barrere, Kenny Gradney and Bill Payne, Pato Banton, Brendon Small's Galaktikon, Bird York, Janet Robin, Gwen Stefani, Eve, The Roots and more ! \nI also have theatrical show experience with numerous plays and with Cirque Du Soliel's 'Totem' , ' Corteo' and 'Zarkana'. \nAll these experiences have contributed to the variety of styles in my arsenal that I play and teach. And I can coach you through a very simple plan of action to reach your goals if you desire to do that.   \n   Please don't hesitate to reach out to schedule a lesson with me.\nI look forward to hear from you ! \n\n* Note ; for Group Coaching and lessons , the fee is discussed based on how many students , where the event or class takes place and for how long. \n\nThank you \n\nRick \n\n","avatarUrl":"https://ngzrkxhrgwvawcdlsfnb.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/media/users/1741295852252_cropped_avatar.jpg","skill":{"id":"bacd4cb0-e46c-4cc0-ba68-3c0ca6f238b9","slug":"guitar","label":"Guitar"},"acceptingNewStudents":true,"teachesOnline":false,"lessonLengths":[30,60,90,120],"maxParticipants":2,"locations":[{"id":"017393d6-a9c2-4030-a8de-db9240ec39b2","name":"Valley Glen Community Park","address":"6150 Atoll Avenue","city":"Van Nuys","state":"California","timezone":"America/Los_Angeles","online":false,"latitude":34.182629,"longitude":-118.419387},{"id":"1206dd4f-dd8d-4c34-9f42-f726e48e137b","name":"Cheviot Hills Recreation Center","address":"2551 Motor Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90064, USA","city":"Los Angeles","state":"California","timezone":"America/Los_Angeles","online":false,"latitude":34.04525,"longitude":-118.4078589},{"id":"1dff0dbb-9936-4be4-b60d-1562beabc6aa","name":"NOHO West","address":"6150 Laurel Canyon Boulevard","city":"North Hollywood","state":"California","timezone":"America/Los_Angeles","online":false,"latitude":34.182556,"longitude":-118.396147},{"id":"1e545d51-2477-4778-b687-c144e60a4a2b","name":"Anthony C.
