Hello Shawna, I’m glad to have you on board, and great to see you here in the forums!

As you said, they don’t have high expectations, and aren’t very judgmental, and so it takes some of the nervousness away.

This week’s live class will be Friday, September 7th, at 12pm Central Time.

We will be continuing our conversation on the CAGED system that we started last week. This week we will be talking about how to find variations of a chord using the CAGED system. And of course, I’ll be taking any of your questions as well.

In this class, I will be starting a series on the CAGED system. We will be going over the 5 foundational chord shapes, which once learned can be transformed into nearly any chord you need in any key.
