This is exactly what I wish I had: songs-first, simple steps, real progress.
You’ve taken lessons. Watched YouTube. Tried teaching yourself.
But you still can’t sit down and just play the songs that made you want to pick up a guitar in the first place.
That was me too.
For years, I tried all the “proper” ways — scales, exercises, theory — and still couldn’t play songs I enjoyed.
I even quit guitar entirely for 4 years.
What changed everything? I flipped the system. I started with songs.
Now I teach adult beginners like you the exact same way I finally learned:
Simple songs you actually want to play.
Small, manageable steps.
No overwhelm. No pressure.
You’ll finally enjoy playing — and stick with it
Small group classes (not big, impersonal lectures)
Play real songs from day one
Friendly, relaxed environment
No confusing theory — just simple, proven steps
Perfect for beginners, rusty returners, or frustrated learners
Here's What You'll Learn:
After teaching hundreds of adult beginners, I created a simple, 3-step system that helps you finally play songs — without feeling overwhelmed.
Chunk It Down
We break every song into small, clear sections. You’ll always know what to practice.
Play It Slow
No pressure. No racing. We slow it down, loop it, and let your hands catch up
Repetition
Smart, focused reps that build confidence and muscle memory fast.
You’ll see weekly progress — and actually enjoy practicing.
