Rock Guitar for Teens
Ages 12-15
Level I: Basic Strumming, Chording, and Riffing

If your child loves to play Guitar Hero or Rock Band, they will love how exciting and achievable learning to play a real guitar can be!

This class takes a revolutionary new approach to teaching absolute beginners. Students learn as they actually play along to some of their favorite rock songs starting on their very first day.

If your child has the desire to play guitar, they will be successful in this class, because we will nourish and intensify that desire! Instead of forcing kids to play tedious exercises and uninspiring songs like "Row Row Row Your Boat" we motivate and excite kids by teaching them the basics of chords, strumming, and reading tablature in the context of carefully selected riffs and songs such as "Smoke On the Water", "Satisfaction", "Seven Nation Army", "Bad to the Bone", "Wild Thing", "Crossroads", "I Wanna Be Sedated", "Rock This Town" and more.

We've worked hard to make this class work for the student AND the student's family:

--We supply guitars in class! (No guitar lugging necessary.)
--Unlimited make-up classes! Missed classes can be made up on another day at no charge.
--Enthusiastic, patient and qualified teachers! They have extensive performing and teaching experience, college degrees in music and have been specially trained for this class.
--No long term committment! You can stop or suspend lessons month to month as you wish.
--Enrollment is ongoing! Start at any time.
--Limited class size! No more than six students per class.
