Introduction
Welcome to Rhythm & Strings Music Academy, where your musical journey begins! I'm Caleb--A 25-year-old working musician in NYC who performs on the electric guitar, acoustic guitar, and conga drums. I offer personalized guitar and percussion lessons designed for students of all ages and skill levels. My teaching approach is based on understanding first with our bodies-- hearing what we play before we play it, internalizing pulsing and syncopation in our feet, moving and dancing to what we play -- and then using our minds and theory to understand the music SECOND depending on the learning goals of the student. My tailored lesson plans will focus on your individual goals, whether you're a complete beginner or looking to refine your skills for the stage. In our lessons, we will work together to give you the tools you need to become the musician you want to be. This may include practice routines, exercises, playing together, group improvisation, and performance opportunities. We will cover a variety of styles, including blues, rock, latin, jazz, and funk, ensuring that you find your unique sound while playing music that you love. My experience: Guitar - Over 15 years of playing experience - Jazz guitar, Theory, Gospel Guitar, and Improvisation study at the California Jazz Conservatory - Regular gigs and band work in the NYC area since 2024 Congas and Latin Percussion - Studied Rumba, Yoruba, Cuban Popular Music, and Afro-Cuban Folkloric Drumming with the Rumba All-Stars in Havana, Cuba. - Studied Salsa and American Funk Conga playing --------------------- ¡Bienvenido a Rhythm & Strings Music Academy, donde comienza tu viaje musical! Soy Caleb, un músico de 25 años que trabaja en Nueva York y que toca la guitarra eléctrica, la guitarra acústica y los tambores conga. Ofrezco lecciones personalizadas de guitarra y percusión diseñadas para estudiantes de todas las edades y niveles de habilidad. Mi enfoque de enseñanza se basa en entender primero con nuestros cuerpos: escuchar lo que tocamos antes de tocarlo, internalizar el pulso y la sincopación en nuestros pies, movernos y bailar al ritmo de lo que tocamos, y luego usar nuestras mentes y la teoría para entender la música como segundo, dependiendo de los objetivos de aprendizaje del estudiante. Mis planes de lecciones personalizados se centrarán en tus metas individuales, ya seas un principiante total o busques perfeccionar tus habilidades para el escenario. En nuestras lecciones, trabajaremos juntos para darte las herramientas que necesitas para convertirte en el músico que deseas ser. Esto puede incluir rutinas de práctica, ejercicios, tocar juntos, improvisación grupal y oportunidades de presentación. Cubriremos una variedad de estilos, incluidos blues, rock, música latina, jazz y funk, asegurando que encuentres tu sonido único mientras tocas música que amas.

Caleb is a great musician and a natural teacher. He is able to help out on a lot of different aspects of my growth from music theory training, technical advice, or working on transcription. He curates a lesson based on a combination of what you would like to work on and his lesson plans. Also he is an amazing Conga player!
