A lot of students struggle with chord changes because their fingers aren’t moving cleanly or independently yet. It's not a finger problem ✋ - it's a brain issue. 🧠 This exercise trains your brain to send the right signal to each finger. It only takes a couple minutes a day, and you can make it easier or harder depending on your level. You’ll find the full lesson here, and the PDF tab is waiting for you in the classroom. Come back and let us know...which finger combo was the hardest for you??

I’ve been working with a lot of students lately who have been playing for months (even years) but still feel awkward holding the guitar. It’s way more common than you think. So I put together a full lesson that walks through everything: 1. How to hold the guitar 2. How to fret notes cleanly 3. How to grip the pick 4. How tight your strap should be, 5. A simple mindset shift that removes tension while you play. You can watch the full lesson here, and the transcript is included below.If you need the PDF or want to follow along step-by-step, it’s waiting for you in the classroom. Let me know if anything feels off or unclear — happy to help. 🙌

I'm not sure why I look so serious when I do these videos. Here's Delbert McClinton's "All Night Long". I love the syncopation in the song, so I was messing with the strumming. No patterns; just listening to the song. Chords: C7, G7, F7 -- Easier than you think!

Once you reach level 5 this is the thread where you can post your song suggestions - and I'll pick one to do. Make sure to follow all the instructions in the classroom.

Once you reach Level 4 you are able to submit a video for personal feedback. Comment the video link here, following the instructions in the classroom and I'll record a response and post it.
