Hey Beth. At the bottom of each lesson, there is a completion button. You can click that when you complete the lesson, and it will automatically update your progress bar.

Hey Everyone! Our live class this week will be Tuesday, May 1st, 2018 @ 12 noon CST.

Jonathan replied to the topic Strumming rhythm in the forum Questions & Struggles 6 years, 7 months ago
A good technique for rhythm is to practice the strum pattern you’re working on by itself. Don’t play any chords with it. Mute your strings with your left hand and focus only on the pattern. Count it out loud while you strum. And move your body to the beat. Sway back and forth. Get your whole body into it.
Some people find it useful to practice strum patterns with a metronome as well. To…Read More

Hey Cheryl, I too love the talented artists on the outskirts of popular culture. There is amazing talent out there that will never be heard.
I’ll take a listen to the song. If I can’t get to it before, I’ll go over it during the live class.

Hey Nico, great to hear your story. Tulips are my wife’s favorite flower. She’d love to see that field.
Great guitar! That’s the same model Taylor I use. I’ve had it for 15 years.
That is definitely a great goal that’ll keep you motivated through the struggles. I played a song I wrote for my wife at the reception of our wedding. It’s a great memory.
I’m looking forward to hearing the…Read More
