Description

Specialties

Optimizing Artistic Performance and Overall Health of The Artist.

History

Established in 2003.

For well over a decade, I’ve helped people break through boundaries and advance musically and otherwise. I’ve been teaching since I was a beginner myself, so that always helped me identify with those who are just getting started. Most teachers begin teaching many years after they have forgotten what it feels like to be a total beginner. This sensitivity has helped many of my students jump start their playing. My method is a lot more based in behavioral medication, and a holistic approach to the health and growth of the student.

Alex Raykin is an extremely talented, creative, brilliant guitarist, teacher, and motivator. He’s also a very down to earth, compassionate, humorous, and charismatic personality. I highly recommend him,

I had been playing for about 6 years before i took lessons from alex. I was at a wall in my playing and I really needed a better foundation. alex not only taught me music theory/​voice leading/​lead sheets/​inside playing but a variety of advanced metal techniques such as sweeping, tapping and string skipping. he taught me the modes and how to utilize the whole neck and most importantly he taught me how to really develop my ear and make me a self sufficient musician. we covered a variety of styles including rock, blues, jazz and funk. he helps bridge the gap between technical virtuosity and choosing the necessary notes and really making art out of your playing. his prices are decent and he is not just a teacher but a friend. he really committed himself to making sure i had a strong understanding of everything he taught me.
