GUITAR DOJO
A Dedicated Music Instructor
Since 2000, I’ve had the privilege of working with students of all ages and skill levels, helping them grow both practically and theoretically on their musical journey. Teaching isn’t just my job—it’s my passion, and I feel grateful every day that I get to share the gift of music.
I know firsthand how much dedication it takes to improve as a musician, and I also know the difference a supportive teacher can make. That’s why I’ve built my approach to be friendly, personal, effective, and—most importantly—fun! Whether you’re picking up the guitar for the first time or aiming to take your playing to the next level, I can’t wait to guide you and share my love of music with you.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY

"Toby is the real deal! Having played in a band with him, and worked with him at Music and Arts Center, I can totally vouch for his skill on guitar as well as his character. Best of luck!"

"My son loved taking bass lessons from Toby! He is a talented and dedicated teacher who really cares about his students!"
Jacqueline D.
My son was a student of Toby Watson for several years. Toby is an amazingly skilled musician and teacher. He has the ability to inspire students to excellence. He provides authentic experiential opportunities to grow and develop talent, not only individually but also as a part of a team/band. I highly recommend Toby as a musician and teacher.
“From first chord to final performance—I’m with you every step.”
In The Mood.
In addition to being a music instructor, I'm currently performing as a classical guitarist through a booking agency. I've performed on rock and metal stages, as a solo guitarist, classical ensembles, and in an original jazz trio.
