If you already play a little bit of guitar then you may want to check out our Blues Guitar class or try the Cretaceous Band.
We’ll start slowly and learn chords and techniques within the context of several tunes including: I’ll Fly Away, This Land is Your Land, Amazing Grace and others. In addition, you will learn exercises that will help to strengthen your hands and fingers.
You should come away from this class with a better understanding of playing the guitar and the desire to keep playing your guitar!
Please contact us if you need a guitar as a limited number of guitars are available for use during the six-week class period for an additional fee.
