Have you always wanted to be able to play your favorite songs with the guitar that’s been sitting in your closet for the last 20 years?
By the end of the first day of this workshop, you’ll be able to:
-
Play three chords
-
Play one strumming pattern
-
Slowly but surely, play a song.
Then you’ll be able to return for a second day to review what you’ve learned and add a few more chords and a song to your brand new guitar playing tool box.
Janet has been teaching music to people of all ages since the 1980s and so has decades of anecdotal evidence that everyone who wants to, can learn how to play the guitar.
Even you.
Registration includes:
-
Four hours of in-person instruction
-
Access to 6 weeks of video guitar lessons to help continue your guitar playing journey
-
A 1 hour online follow up session on Sunday, June 11th at 1:00 p.m. Eastern/12:00 noon Central
