If you're a complete beginner with no prior experience, this is your starting point for learning guitar. Beginning from scratch, you'll master fundamental chords including D, G, Em, C, D7, Am, A, and E through detailed, step-by-step instruction on reading chord diagrams, understanding string placement, and proper finger positioning. You'll work through songs by popular artists such as John Legend, Sublime, Taylor Swift, and Coldplay, building real playing ability from day one.
How the Program Works:
Attend weekly classes where you'll connect with fellow students, practice new techniques progressively, and learn a fresh song each session. In-person classes include provided guitars in NYC, and if you need to miss a session, you can make it up through another group session for free or access a discounted private lesson. Practice at home using comprehensive video tutorials, starting with simple 2-minute warm-up exercises. Your instructor will let you know when you're prepared to advance to Level 2, or you can submit a video recording of yourself playing along with the graduation video for instructor feedback and placement into your next course.
Most absolute beginners feel ready to progress after 6-8 sessions, though your pace may vary. There's no rush; you set your own speed.
Prerequisites: None. Simply bring your enthusiasm and desire to learn.
Note: This purchase includes a full 3-month membership providing unlimited access to schedule as many available class dates as you'd like for your chosen course, including online class options.
