🔥 This is about confidence, not control. - Belonging, not pressure. - Presence, not perfection 🧡 AGC exists because I believe in being an acoustic guitarist, not just doing guitar. - I’m neurodivergent with AuDHD & Dyslexia. - I’ve been through divorce, health crashes, business crashes and identity loss. - I know what it feels like to be constantly torn with external priorities left, right and centre. 💪🏻 But I still show up every day with my guitar - Not because I “have to”. - Because “I get to”. 🎸 My guitar isn’t a task. - It isn’t practice or something I have to do - It isn’t something I squeeze in when life allows. 😌 It’s co-regulation: - Expression. - Connection. - Therapy. - Being. ⭐ It’s been with me since I was 8. - No conditions. - No judgement. - No expectations. ✨ That’s the energy AGC is built on. So here’s what we agree to, together: 🎸 You are a guitarist 🎸 You are actively playing 🎸 You’re willing to post progress & questions 🎸 You’re open to encouragement and feedback 🎸 You’re here to participate, not observe ❌ There are no sideliners here. - No lurkers or “I’m too busy” excuses. - No “I’ll get to it someday”. 🤘🏻 If you’re not actively playing or engaging… - This group isn’t for you 👊🏻 A gentle but important note: “I can’t because I’m ND” “I have no time” 😬 These often come from fear, not truth. - We all battle with MET: Money. Energy. Time. - This space is about prioritising, not blaming the world outside us. 🔦 AGC is about shining a light inward - On our playing. - Our presence. - Our responsibility. - I’ll meet you 50% if you meet me 50%. - This isn’t my community. - It’s yours and ours 🤲🏻 In your corner always 🧡🎸

✨ New Year ✨ New Energy ✨ New Purpose ✨ New Acoustic Guitar Circle As we start the new year, Acoustic Guitar Circle is shifting gears. Not because anything was broken. But because I want this to actually work for you. AGC is no longer about watching, saving, or waiting until you feel ready. It’s about playing, showing up, and building momentum. 👇🏻 WHAT’S CHANGING: ✅ Less learning ✅ More playing guitar ✅ Less passive learning ✅ More tangible progress ✅ Less pressure & frustration ✅ More connection and purpose : ✊🏻 INTRODUCING TWO NEW CORE PILLARS 🎥 Friday Feedback 🎸 Guitar Arranging Bootcamp This is about small, focused actions that compound. ❌ No overwhelm. ❌ No grinding. ❌ No hiding.

They explain how AGC works from here. 2026 is about presence over perfection.

This month I was playing around with some Christmas songs (traditional and modern). I love to take fast paced tracks and then slow them down. Not just the chords or the melody. But all the layers. Silent Night and Rocking around the Christmas Tree have become my go tos on guitar and ukulele. Defo worth having a look into if you haven’t already. Chords are mainly G, C, D and Em now and again. And you should find most of the melodies, harmonies and rhythm section embedded into the chords. Always remember to use the open strings as anchor notes for figuring out your melodies. And more importantly if the frustration pops up it means your in an energy of forcing it. Regulate your nervous system and then approach it again in a flow state. Have fun 🤘🏻🎸
