Group Guitar Class
Instructor: Eric Levintow
Dates/Times: Wednesdays at 6:00-7:00pm January 13th - February 17th
Price: $10/class
Class Description: (Drop In Accepted - 20 Student Limit)
If I had a nickel for every time somebody told me “I tried to learn guitar but I gave up,” I could buy myself a shiny new Fender. This class will be all about getting started with the guitar, whether you’re brand new or just haven’t picked up the axe in a while. We will go over the basic chords, chord progressions, strumming patterns, and how that all fits in to some of our favorite classic tunes. Just bring a tuned up guitar, preferably a guitar pick, and a rockin’ attitude!
