Teaching Philosophy
All people deserve the privilege of receiving musical training. Music enriches life. It enhances our strongest emotions, and it is always there for us when we need it. No matter the age, talent, circumstance, or end-goal, everyone should experience the joy of understanding and appreciating the beauty of this timeless art.

Why learn classical guitar?
The principal benefit of learning classical guitar is that it focuses on the development of an ergonomic technique along with the development of an academic understanding of music. The student will develop healthy mental and physical habits of music learning which will open the doors to an easy and successful transition to or use of any other style of playing. The student will be encouraged to learn how to learn and create their own knowledge, allowing them to become an independent musician and a better pedagogue. In addition, all of these learned behaviors can transcend the practice room, thus positively enhancing other aspects of the student's life.

"Carlos is a genuinely outstanding teacher. His attention to detail, superb musicality, and years of experience allow him to diagnose *exactly* what is holding his student back and immediately form a roadmap for them to correct it. My playing skyrocketed after only a few months with Maestro Bedoya. I can't thank him enough!"
