Lessons

GuitarPlay for Kids


This class is designed specifically for children ages 5 - 12. Students learn proper guitar technique, how to play by ear, and note reading with familiar tunes. From the very beginning, students are shown classical guitar technique. In the first few months, students are aided in their practice by the GuitarPlay CD recorded specifically for 7th Fret Guitar Studios. Later, they go on to play chords and popular styles. It is also recommended that a parent attend each lesson in order to help the student at home. When the young student is ready, this curriculum transitions smoothly into our teen program. Ages 5-12



Guitar for Teens


This course is designed to give the teenager a solid foundation in playing guitar. A proprietary class guitar method introduces fundamental classical guitar techniques and repertoire. Students learn elements of popular guitar styles through the study of chords, scales improvisation, music theory and ear training. Ages 13-18


Private lessons


Group classes are always recommended for beginning children as it has been my experience that students learning in the group format develop better listening and rhythmic skills. Private lessons in classical guitar are available for intermediate to advanced children as well as any level for adults. All aspects of classical guitar are covered including posture, technique, music reading, and repertoire.
