Learning to play an instrument is not easy. Finding your way around online tutorials is even more challenging.

Want to learn to play guitar in real life without the hassle and preferably by someone with tons of experience?

We've got your back!

In the first lesson you learn your first two chords. In order to master all these chords technically, everyone's pace will be taken into account. After the second lesson you will already be able to play a four-chord medley.

The following chords are learned using songs of your own choice.

Do you like campfire songs and evergreens? Or are you more of a fan of rock classics, singer-songwriters or indie? Anything goes!

Of course, we scan the group's choices and gradually build up the level. You will be given tools to dissect, understand and pick out songs yourself so you can continue at home after this course.

Practical

This course will be taught in English.
Bring your own instrument: a classical guitar (wide neck) or folk guitar (narrow neck). A tuning device may also come in handy. Brand new guitar? Make sure it has already been tuned.

Level of experience

Level 1: This is a beginners course for which you do not need any prior knowledge.
