Welcome to Crosscut. We found each other. Please take a minute and fill out the Get Started form. I'll follow up to chat specifics. I'm happy to refer other teachers if they better fit your needs. Otherwise, we can look at calendars and off we go.
Private in-home lessons can be 1:1, + sibling or group-based. I travel to you. A space in Hillsborough can be arranged, if preferred. We'll align on a plan when we chat.

Why Crosscut
crosscut definition:
-
a diagonal cut across the main grain of wood or stone
-
alternating between two or more sequences when editing a movie
Becoming a musician isn’t a linear path. It cuts across life's grain. Your musical story will develop and grow alongside all aspects of your life. It will zig and zag across your storyline, like different scenes in a movie.
Crosscut's mission is to inspire. To unlock the music and creativity everyone has inside. To offer lessons, tools and guidance. To pass along what we’ve learned. And help to set it free.
