18+ Why this community is free (and what's to come)
This is a place where my guitar students come to learn from one another, or to just get access to course material. I want to bless people and make a community of people who want to learn guitar quick, without any fluff. I won't lie to you, your playing does accelerate even faster, and brings higher value to you having a teacher in person, so this is also why I still offer paid lessons in person, and online, but I think everyone should get a fair chance to love music the way I do. My Company Slogan "Passion You Can Hear" is not just a slogan, it's a lifestyle for me. It's generally how I approach like, and everything I do. Kids, and adults alike need to get that fire started too, so I want to help people get there too. Where this is going... I have been an experiencer of severe ADHD since I was a kid. I know the struggles it comes with. The self doubt, self hate, the overthinking, you name it. This often led to heavy suicide ideation at a very young age. I took up hobbies like Guitar, Skateboarding, Magic Tricks, Loud Music, to escape the world. I started self harm because that's how I translated my value to others, but I also got really good at these things. I was "Magic Dan" in High School, wowing my peers with David Blaine-like Magic tricks, or I would be flying down stair sets on a skateboard giving my mom a heart attack regularly. Then Guitar and Singing came along. I started realizing that after hearing a song a couple times, I was able to play it. My parents saw this and capitalized on it and got me an electric guitar, and needless to say, from then I was HOOKED. 12 hour days, any chance I got I was banging on that thing. I learnt how to metal scream, and all that anger at myself in the world now had a way out. In a weird way my parents may not have loved the heavy music and sad/angry lyrics, but they accepted it because they knew it helped me. The reason I'm sharing this is, and with tears mind you, because I see the value in having an output for someone who doesn't know how to accept the beautiful person they are because they see the world around them, and know that they are different than anyone else. NEWS FLASH...everyone is a little weird, we just get the extra special gifts. We also get to have the ability to learn FAST, HEAR different, Recognize PATTERNS quicker than anyone else. This is HUGE with ANY musical instrument. So you have the opportunity to get involved with a future shaping skill for yourself, or your kids.

It’s up to you…
Yeah, I’ll hold your hand for some. But ear training is part of it too. It might be early to try this out but just try. Figure out what strings to strum. Always post a comment or question if you have any :) Here are Chord charts, try them out. Then comment done!

1st and Second Lessons are up
The first bit is up. I’m going to be recording videos for these as well. As well as the following lessons. Just setting up and experimenting with lighting, and different spaces to get you the clearest instructions :)

The Reason...
I watch a lot of different Guitar Teachers, and courses and I don't think that they break things down as simply as they can be broken down for you. The goal for them is to KEEP you as a student, which from a business perspective makes perfect sense. But I want to make this free community so that you can refer to it's materials while learning guitar. There will be instructional videos up. There will be more than enough resources for you to get going. Did you know that if you learn 1 technique I teach, you'll unlock being able to learn basic songs by yourself? I initially was going to name this community the "Campfire Player" community because of the end of goal of many of you...to grab a guitar and just play. I think that this is a strong move, but at the same time I don't want to limit you. You may want to go on and become the next Steve Vai, and I want to help you in this domain to get your fingers on the fretboard and you not SCARED to TRY. I do in Person lessons too, and over webcam. It's an option for you. Watching the videos and reading the notes will do it, but if you're an in person kind of guy/gal, then I can accommodate that too. I have 10 extra spots per week I can fill, dependent on your time zone, and where you live. Anyways, Happy Learning!

Introduction
This is an online community for people who want to start guitar, but either have been intimidated by it, or have gave up. This is also a place for my student to gather and talk, and learn from each other! I’ll have cool songs and music links to share, tutorials, and you can book and pay for lessons directly through here!
