Teachers in the state of New Mexico (USA)?

Should I be so lucky?
Hello.
I am 15 years old (16 in a couple weeks) and I have gotten a 2.6 Earth Shakuhachi from Perry Yung.
Let me first say that, though I can't even make a tone on it, it is truely a work of art and Mr. Yung, the bamboo plant, and the earth are all very skilled artists.
I have tried many things as far as achieving a tone, and while nothing has succeeded, it seems that it may be much like the art of mediation, and that only through much practice and perserverance will I coax the sound out of it.
Nonetheless, lessons would help ;-).
I am in the Rio Rancho/Albuquerque west side area.

Welcome to the world of shakuhachi.
I don't believe there are any teachers in your area, but I and several others (Michael Gould, Ronnie Seldin) do live computer video lessons with Skype...
