Aloha attire optional! Free! No reservations needed!
A little about me for those who don't know:
"Born and raised in Honolulu, Mitchell is a graduate of the University of Hawai’i music program where he studied classical guitar under the direction of Lisa Smith and jazz theory under Dr. Byron Yasui. A former student of the legendary Pepe Romero, Smith introduced Mitchell to flamenco guitar technique and structures and he has since provided guitar accompaniment for various flamenco dance classes, workshops and performances throughout Hawai’i and Los Angeles. His 'ukulele lessons are clear and easy to understand and incorporate basic music theory and a sprinkling of classical and even flamenco techniques for both beginning and advanced players. Mitchell has been teaching guitar and ukulele since 1994 and is knowledgeable in improvisation and jazz techniques, much of which he learned from jazz ukulele musician Bill Tapia. His YouTube instructional videos receive high ratings and praise with over 1,200 subscribers and over 370,000 views."
