Description

This course is aimed at the student who has never played guitar before. No prior experience is necessary! You will learn to play all of the basic major and minor chords which form the basis of everything you will go on to play once you've finished this course. Also I will show you how to negotiate chord changes - something that many beginners struggle with. With this course you will learn how to do this with ease. In addition to this, you will learn to count and play rhythms as we cover the basics of strumming technique.

All of these skills are demonstrated via eight specially written & recorded pieces of music which showcase the skills & techniques you will be learning. At the end of the course, I will show you how to take everything you have learned and find songs to play with your new found skills.

Who this course is for:

  • Complete beginners to playing guitar - no previous experience
