A message from The Instructor
Hi there! My name is Ryan, and I am a Canadian guitar instructor living in Tokyo, Japan since 2013.
I was born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. At 16, after receiving the Maestro Please Musicians Award in New York, I entered the Humber College Music program, acquiring a Bachelor of Arts in Jazz.
After graduating, I continued working as a professional guitarist, working as a sideman for several esteemed artists, while teaching several guitar students.
Moving to Tokyo, Japan in 2013 to complete my studies in Japanese, after graduating from ARC Academy Japanese School, and achieving N2 on the Japanese Language Proficiency Test, I am is happy to teach students in another language, as well as perform for new audiences at several of Tokyo's finest clubs such as The Billboard Live.
I have taught guitar for nearly 20 years, and have taught hundreds of students, from the casual hobbyist, to the aspiring professional.
With my experience as a working international musician, I like to tap into my student's potential to find the perfect balance of structure and freedom.
​
Lessons can be taught in person at a lesson studio in west Tokyo (Nakako), or online.
​
I look forward to meeting you and working with you!

-Ryan
