Learn the Basic Blues Pick-Style Guitar *In-Person* *NEW*

In this basic pick-style guitar course, you’ll learn the easiest things to start with blues guitar. We’ll take it slow and easy. We’ll learn and use the basic 12-bar blues chord progression, variations on the 12-bar progression, and basic blues scale patterns. Once we’ve covered a few basics, we’ll practice playing together to apply what we’ve learned. We’ll also listen to and learn a few blues songs, then discover ways to play with recorded songs for practice. We’ll have fun getting started with basic blues guitar. Please bring your acoustic guitar, tune it, and be ready to play. This is not a course for people who know nothing about the guitar or are just starting at the very beginning.

“We must have a way to say just what it is we want to say in just the right way.”
“Place your personal attitude towards what you are saying onto the words themselves.”
"Everything you say has an underlying message that is not part of the words themselves. Are you communicating that message when you speak?"
“We build communication strength by focusing on finer and more subtle communication points, improving message content, communicating confidence, developing nonverbal communication skills, and getting to the point.”

Steve can answer all your questions - from how to improve your communication for meetings and presentations to grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary usage.
