After 20 years of teaching and over 1,000 students, I’ve mapped out the 5 stages every adult guitar player goes through. If you ever feel like: - You're stuck playing the same bunch of chords - You freeze when someone asks you to play - You’re drowning in YouTube Then this framework is going to change everything. Just comment “MAP” and I’ll send you the breakdown. It’s helped older, overwhelmed adults finally play guitar with confidence - and actually enjoy it. Miss a step? You stay stuck. Get all 5 right? You become that person who picks up a guitar and plays. Simple yet Powerful. Yours free — just comment “MAP” below. Dave 🎶 p.s. I built this for players who want a clear path. If that’s you, say “MAP” and I’ll send it your way today.

I was working with a student today in a private lesson and their singing and playing weren't syncing up... So we broke it down as follows: 1. Drill the line of chords: D A Bm A | G G A A 2. Eliminate any gaps in the chord changes e.g. the A to Bm could be tricky 3. Keep focusing on the chords & strum while briefing only "thinking" about the lyrics 4. Then do a "dance remix" type thing where you only sing the first 2-3 lyrics of the line and keep your full focus on the chord playing! ..this means we are training our brains to prioritise the chords/strum. 5. Continue to add on more lyrics bit by bit, each time you get something working, repeat it a couple of times, so you are continuously expanding out the line with solid singing and playing. Hope this helps, if you would like to me demo this on a video comment DEMO below this post and I'll do one up!
