We are just about to release a new lesson by Glenn Riley that is geared towards the intermediate guitarist. He has more coming but this is a good introduction. A bit of a sampler of his style and direction he will go with his classes. In the process of putting the class together, we have had several email conversations. One of them included an email address from a customer who bought one of his books. The guitarist is from Romania!
The Plan…
In the internet world we now live in, this is to be expected but it got me thinking about our direction at Just 2 Play Guitar. Our plan goes something like this:
- Offer online downloadable classes to adults looking to learn guitar or improve their playing from the beginner and intermediate levels. Help the novices overcome their challenges and really enjoy playing.
- Add online live sessions where students can get individualized instruction and help specific to them and their skills. Like golf, there may be some minor adjustment that changes everything and off you go to play like a pro.
- Offer a “camp” or other get away where the students and instructors can meet in person. We will offer specialized instruction and advice, in-depth classes, play in a real band, and just have fun jamming with others.
Going Worldwide
That last bullet is what immediately popped into my mind as I’m adding the guy from Romania to our newsletter subscribers (btw, if you haven’t already, add your name to the list. We promise not to spam you with irrelevant garbage 😉 Not much going on with that, yet. But just you wait!
My initial thought was to do a camp somewhere in the US. I suspect many of our students would be from there, at least, to start. I did not even add location to the newsletter subscription sign up as I did not think it relevant for now. However, here we are. It would be handy to know where everyone is so we can better select a location when we get to that point. Maybe we do something in two or more locations?
I’ve been around the world…
Almost around the world, anyway, and there are guitarists everywhere of various skill levels who are looking to improve. Maybe it is just trying to get over that hurdle to really enjoying their own music or looking to get to the next level. Wouldn’t you love to jam with someone from another country? I would hope some of our students could travel outside of their home country to learn and play with others. What a reach! I hope you will go with us.
