Class Description

Description

In this class, you will systematically acquire a powerful and comprehensive vocabulary of open chords that will provide you with the essential skill and knowledge to play thousands of different songs, including mastering the small barre chord technique and becoming confident and comfortable using your pinky finger.

To feel confident about which class level is right for your current abilities, try playing along with the various class graduation videos. If you can successfully play along with the previous graduation video but struggle with the graduation video for this current class, then you're in exactly the right place to continue your progress.

Before your very first class, try playing along with the warm-up video that you will practice in every class session. There are 9 different warm-ups available, so make sure to select the correct level for your ability. Don't worry if you don't fully understand or master everything on your first try; just get comfortable and familiar with the material. By the way, to maximize your overall progress, use this video as a warm-up every single time you practice at home as well.

If you are able to pass and master the graduation video for this level, check out our next class in the progressive series.

Prerequisites: You have successfully completed Beginners 1, 2, and 3, or you are already comfortable with basic open chords, basic strumming patterns, and rhythm patterns like palm muting and bass strumming.

Please note that with this purchase, you will receive a full 3-month membership, which entitles you to schedule as many available class dates as you'd like for your selected course, including access to all online class options.

Refund Policy

We have a strict 3 business days cancellation policy and there are no refunds with fewer than 3 business days. There's a 5% non-refundable fee per student.

  • You can withdraw from a class at any time after it begins by notifying us for a one hundred percent credit (not a refund) for future sessions which are scheduled after your drop date.
  • You can use that credit towards any other class session.
  • Please note that you can't get credit for sessions which ran before you contacted us.

Make-up Policy:

There are three great options to go over missed materials.

  • First, every student gets free lifetime access to hundreds of video tutorials and practice sessions, so you can simply take the online version of the session you missed.
  • Secondly, you can drop in on the same session of a different section of your class--for free.
  • Finally, we offer discounted private make-up lessons for students who want to go over their missed class one-on-one.

In any event where a customer wants to cancel their enrollment and is eligible for a full refund, a 5% processing fee will be deducted from the refund amount.
