Teaching Beginner to Advanced students in Performance and Composition. (Any Genre welcome!) A graduate from the Berklee College of Music and the Herbie Hancock Institute (UCLA)

Sasha is a really great teacher! Not only did he help me improve my sax technique, he also helped me understand how to play jazz without any prior knowledge. He’s fun, patient, and really skilled at both playing and teaching. I highly recommend!

Sasha is an incredible pedagogue and musician, with years of experience. He is really patient, passionate and a great instructor. Really made me connect better with my instrument and music in general. He has a deep understanding of the horn, and thanks to him I am becoming a better jazz and overall musician.

Learning the saxophone with Sasha has been nothing short of transformative. His teaching style blends deep musical knowledge with patience, encouragement, and an infectious passion for jazz performance and musical excellence.
• Expertise: He breaks down complex techniques into clear, manageable steps, making even challenging pieces feel achievable.
• Personalization: Lessons are tailored to each student’s goals—whether mastering scales, improvisation, or preparing for performances.
• Inspiration: Beyond technical skills, he instills confidence and creativity, encouraging students to find their own voice through the instrument.
• Jazz Mastery: His deep jazz background and improvisational brilliance bring lessons to life, showing students how to move beyond the notes and truly express themselves.
• Prestigious Training: With degrees from both Berklee College of Music and a Master’s from UCLA’s prestigious Herbie Hancock Institute, he brings world-class knowledge and artistry into every session.
• Results: Progress is tangible week after week. Students not only improve their playing but also develop a genuine love for music.

I can’t recommend Sasha highly enough. His dedication, artistry, and elite training make him not just a teacher, but a mentor who inspires excellence.
