guitar course is that it is taught in logical steps so that you can move steadily toward you goal, whether you are an absolute beginner, or a more advanced player.
This jam-packed twenty week course is comprised of two levels. The material in Level 1 covers 12 weeks with the focus on learning beginning guitar techniques such as:
- rhythm
- basic chords
- strumming to a beat
- fingerstyle strum patterns
- power chords
- using a capo
and much, much more...
Level 2 comes complete with a downloadable, fully printable "Companion Book" that you can read at your leisure when you are away from the computer! It is a continuation of the 12-week level 1 program, adding another 8 weeks of intermediate - advanced information to the course which includes:
- understanding intervals
- barre chords
- chord voicings
- advanced strumming techniques
- introduction to Jazz
- percussion techniques
- phrasing
and the list goes on...
Strumming School will give you 20 WEEKS worth of lessons for what it would cost for just ONE guitar lesson with a private instructor.
That's a very good value in my opinion.

From theDVD you will learn:
Strumming Techniques - This includes learning note values, such as 8th notes, 8th rests, tied notes, dotted notes, the dominant chords, the majors, the minors, the
ninths, and more. Then you will learn how to use strumming patterns, licks, and phrases to create your very own song.
Jazz Strumming - You'll learn to use chords in various positions such as the C7, the C9, D5, Cm7, and much more! Dive in-depth with jazz voicings and chord structures to learn more than your standard hum-drum chords! Jazz Form Exercises -covers the various forms of jazz basics, using slash sheets and difficult chord progressions such as the F7-Gm7-Am7-BbM7 and many more.
Chord Voicings - Chords have various 'voicings' that allow you to accompany or 'double' a given standard chord with a lesser-known chord. You will learn about the 4 basic chord voicings and how they appear on the guitar. This allows you to really experiment with voicings that aren't too commonplace in the world of guitar.
I-IV-V Chord Family - This I-IV-V family is the basis for countless chord progressions in pop, rock, country, blues, and jazz. You'll learn how to find chord families in every single key possible!
The Circle of Fifths - The Circle of Fifths, also called the Circle of Fourths, arranges the twelve musical tones so that a stepcounter-clockwise takes you up a fifth, and a step clockwise takes you up a fourth. This includes TONS of information such as 'transposing keys,' how to play chord progressions in ANY key, and diving deeper into further information about the I-IV-V chord family.
