Online Guitar Coaching

Prefer flexibility? Coaching is the option when you do not have time for a weekly lesson but still want a plan, feedback and someone in your corner. You get a personalized practice plan every month, two video reviews with my feedback inside 48 hours, and email when you are stuck. Anywhere with an internet connection.

What you get for $129 a month

  • Two video submissions a month from you, answered with my video replies
  • Email Q and A when you need it, so you never stay stuck
  • Links from your plan to short demo videos of me playing every example

Why coaching works

Clear plan, zero guesswork

You know exactly what to do each week.

Feedback that sticks

Short, targeted video responses you can rewatch.

Fits your schedule

Real progress in 15 to 20 focused minutes a day.

Who online coaching is for

Players outside Madison, or anyone whose week will not hold a standing lesson time. Rusty returners who want structure more than a teacher watching every note. Intermediate players who know what they want to play and need an organized path to it.

If you are a complete beginner, a few weekly lessons first, in person or on Zoom, will make coaching far more useful.
