Professional Guitar and Bass Instruction
with
Kimberly Allison
|
At Starliner Music, I incorporate a tailored curriculum to help people achieve their personal goals. I can show you how to play your favorite songs, or I can teach you music theory, technique, improvisation, reading, walking bass lines and more. I adjust your course of study according to your areas of interest. If you are dying to learn a rock song or country tune or are planning on auditioning for a college-level program, I can help you achieve these goals. I have taught hundreds of beginners alongside more advanced students. My students have gone to study music at GIT, Fullerton College, Pasadena City College, Berklee, Citrus College, Cal State LA, and USC.
