Welcome to this beginner guitar class. It covers everything you need to become a

confident and creative guitarist. You can join with an acoustic or electric guitar. And you

don't need any previous guitar playing experience.

Guitar lessons can seem like a daunting process for some students. But with over 20

years playing & teaching experience - and a focus on encouraging self-belief and creative

expression, I hope to make this an enjoyable and rewarding journey for you.

PDF's are attached to the class, to further assist your learning journey.

In this class you will learn:

• Guitar anatomy

• Tuning

• How to read chord boxes & tab

• A variety of playing exercises to improve overall technique

• A big selection of riffs from a mix of musical styles

• Major and Minor chords

• The foundations of Music Theory

• Full songs (with extra ones attached as PDF's)

• How to restring your guitar

• How to develop timing

• Strumming patterns

• Power Chords

• Scales

• Lead guitar & improvisation

• Hammer-on and Pull-off techniques

• How to create chord structures and work within keys of music

• Songwriting - how to compose your own music

I also provide a live backing track for you to jam along with me. This is a chance for you

to implement all of the lead guitar knowledge you have acquired - and to generally just

have fun and get creative. I strongly believe that everyone has unique creative expression,

and this will be an opportunity to discover and explore yours.

I love hearing from students and am available for any questions, so please reach out any

Your journey doesn't need to end here. I have multiple classes available on Ultimate

Guitar and would suggest the following order, to continue your progression:

Fingerstyle Guitar Lessons: Beginner Fingerpicking (Are your team able to add a direct

link to this txt?)

Guitar Practice: Improve Your Finger Strength, Stretch, Speed & Independence (Same as

above, if possible)

I'm available throughout your entire learning journey - so please email me.

All the best!
