✨That moment when you witness mesmerizing your class of eager new guitar students with her original song Sleep Paralysis. This room of 25 guitar students has never been so quiet.

Without a doubt, the most fulfilling aspect of this musical journey is being a witness to my students’ journeys through life. I started teaching Milla when she was a bright, young 12 year old. Yesterday she started volunteering as an assistant in our Santa Ana guitar class as she works on her senior volunteering requirements. Any former student knows, I love nothing more than putting my performers on the spot, without warning, and watching how they deliver. Cheers to a new benchmark for Milla. She began as the seeker, and has arrived as the benefactor. 🧡🎸♾️

Excited to announce our next class! This school year 100 kids in Santa Ana will get to learn guitar, but the school doesn’t have funds for instruments so we need to acquire 25 guitars for the kids to use. If you have an old guitar like this one that was donated to us, or want to donate towards the purchase of a new one (our cost is $150), every dollar helps and will do something great! Thank you! 🧡🎸
