I teach all levels of horn from your first day with the thing to university auditions and beyond, whatever the goal may be! I don't believe that there is ever a wrong time to begin or continue learning a musical instrument, so if you've always wanted to learn or are itching to get back to it, I would be thrilled to be a part of the adventure!
In additon to french horn, I also teach beginning trumpet! I like to say that while I'm not sure you'd want me to help you win an audition, I would be happy to help you get on the right path. I expect my trumpet students to leave me for someone else given enough time, but when they do I am confident they will have learned the fundamentals of both brass playing (there are a few carry-overs I'd say!) and musicianship that will help them to achieve all their goals.
Recently I have also been teaching alphorn and general music, so really the options are pretty open! Let me know if there's something you want help with and if I can't, I'm sure I can help find someone who can!
I am privileged to be associated with two great instituions in the Okanagan Valley: the Penticton Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts and the Kelowna Community Music School.

Given the unpredictable nature of our current cirsumstances, I have been teaching online! While I don't think anything can truly compare to one-on-one in-person lessons, internet video conferencing has come a long way in recent times and regardless the situation, we can make lessons of any kind work. Follow the links to register at the schools or send me an email and I can help get the ball rolling for you!
