Imagine getting to play the part of music that makes people dance. With 18 years of experience, I provide personalized guidance, helping you master techniques and unleash your musicality. Let's groove! I have been performing as a bassist for over 18 years, and teaching for over ten years. As an instructor, I meet students where they are and tailor my teaching approach accordingly. Lessons are collaborative; I want to get to know each student and your individual goals and learning style in order to create an open and comfortable learning environment. My extensive musical background allows you to choose music YOU like to play, and through each song we will work on specific technical, harmonic, and rhythmic concepts. I use my experience as an active working musician to inform the lessons and ground everything you learn in real-world application. About me: I tour the US and internationally with Future Teens, an indie rock band with over three LPs on our resume. Future Teens has been featured on NPR, The Boston Globe, and WBUR, and was Boston Music Awards’ 2019 Alt/Indie Artist of the Year. I studied bass performance at Berklee College of Music, where I earned the Bass Department Outstanding Performer Award and Scholarship. I have a BA in English and French from Skidmore College (‘13). I have worked with students between the ages of six and sixty and welcome students of all ages.

"Maya was a patient, kind and supportive guitar teacher. My daughter looked forward to her lessons each week, and left feeling confident. Maya was always open to Annabelle's ideas (hello, Taylor Swift!) and encouraged her to try new things. She is an accomplished musician and we were very sorry to see her go!

"Jay is a class act: professional, friendly, and an expert in what he does. Can not recommend him and his abilities enough.

I had the best professional teachers from childhood. Maradona, Pele, and Phillips. A couple more, I’ll tell you in person. Pepperdine University graduate. I coached a lot of younger professional players when I was young, anything to get their attention and they listened. Euro 2024 and a lot of countries players. If you want me to coach your team to win a league it’s not difficult for me. I don’t need to play to coach. I prefer to play and coach.

Hello! I’m Seth. I love playing and teaching others golf. I have 16 years of golfing experience starting with high school competitive play and lessons with several coaches. Anything golf related you want to know, I should have the answer. I focus on swing fundamentals, theory, and game management. For absolute beginners, the goal is to never miss the ball. For the more intermediate players, the goal is to develop a consistent repeatable shot pattern. For advanced players, the goal is to be able to shape the ball on command and control ball flight.

"Seth was amazing! I can’t believe how much my confidence came back after just one lesson. I was hitting the ball straight and actually felt like I knew what I was doing. His instruction was clear, concise, and exactly what I was hoping for. He’s an incredible coach.

Hi! I'm Nicole, a former junior tournament player. I have over 5 years coaching all ages and levels, from beginners who are just learning the basic strokes to tournament players working on strategy, conditioning, and mental toughness. Should you wish to train with me, I will make a personalized lesson plan to help you achieve your specific goals according to your level, experience, and desired time commitment. As a coach, I believe it is important to develop all parts of a tennis player. Sportsmanship, mental toughness, and strategy are as integral to a strong player just as much as the strokes and physical elements of the sport. If that sounds like something you are interested in for yourself or for your children, please reach out. Tennis provides lifelong rewards, and I look forward to being a part of your tennis journey.

"Nicole is one of the best tennis instructors I’ve seen. I grew up playing but my daughters wanted lessons from… not their dad, so I found Nicole and couldn’t be happier! Within their first semi-private they were already getting the ball over the net. So the results were there, but the girls also felt super comfortable with Nicole and are big into tennis now. Mission accomplished! Thanks Nicole!

Thanks Coach Branko!! -Michael
