About Ryan
I'm a former Embalmer (13 years in the field) and I've been working in finance ever since. However, I have been a metalhead since I was 8 years old! So that gives me 35 years of guitar experience. From touring and recording to playing clubs on tour and opening for big acts at festivals, I've been lucky to have worked with great musicians and get to talk about music...what sucks, what rules...ya know, important stuff!
Any questions, just ask!

Every student walks away knowing how to play something from my 1st lesson. Even if it's your first lesson, or you've been playing for 10 years, you'll walk away with new knowledge.
My method is to find the music YOU want to play, and help you play it! We'll break it down piece by piece and identify strengths and weaknesses. Knowing what to focus on is half the battle. The other half is practice. I once heard, "Practice doesn't make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect." And I believe it. Don't repeat a bad habit or mistake just because it's easy...it's the hard part that makes guitarists great. Otherwise, everyone would do it...that's why they make Guitar Hero, because it takes talent and a lot of practice and most people can't do it. But if you try and practice like you mean it, you will reach your goal! I'll help you find what areas to work on, give you exercises to help you and chart your progress along the way.
I also love acoustic guitar and have been playing classical piano since age 3. So I can’t just help you with your ear, I can teach you all that boring music theory stuff that unlocks what I call the “cosmic radio.”
But when you play YOUR music, practice is fun and you get to imagine the looks on everyone's faces when you show them what you can do!
And tips are very much appreciated and the first hour is always free!

I’ve had 2 lessons in two days with Ryan and I feel like the guitar is finally unlocked for me! If you’re looking to learn rock and metal guitar, Ryan is the teacher for you!
I’ve been playing decent rhythm, but learning to use 4 fingers (even the thumb) is next level! Thanks bro and I’m looking to our next lesson!
Ryan is an outstanding teacher! I was an absolute beginner and had a lot of anxiety about taking classes, and Ryan — with infinite patience — helped guide me through the fundamentals. After a couple of months, I'm now a much more confident player. My partner was a more intermediate player (she's been playing off and on for a few years), and I've been astounded at her improvement since Ryan started coaching her.
If you want a no-pressure way to learn about music and become the best guitarist you can be, regardless of your skill level, then Ryan is definitely your guy!View more recommendations
