Welcome - Guitar for Kids Program, Grand junction
Enjoyable Kids Guitar Program, Ages 8 -18
Guitar students are special. They learn so many different techniques and with every lesson there is something new. With this easy and effective course, your child will learn how to master basic scales, notes, tab, chords and strumming patterns using my fun ninja pro guitar program. Then after that they will advance through different techniques on level 1, 2, 3, 4. Then move into the advanced program.
In my guitar lessons here in Grand Junction, I base everything off of the "CAGED" system. These are the 5 chords they will start off learning. They will learn different strumming patterns, how to read and play notes and work with drum beats for rhythm.
I strongly recommend that a student have at least 1 to 2 years of piano before learning guitar. Piano is the basis for all music and they can take what they have learned in piano and music to help with building their guitar skills. Guitar and piano go hand-in-hand.

My Experience With Guitar
I first learned guitar in Junior High. My brother-in-law played and it always intrigued me. I picked up on it really fast because I already understood and knew the language of music.
I took lessons in Junior High and since then I have played guitar in numerous settings. I have mostly played while leading children in songs at church, camp, youth group, and CEF (Child Evangelism Fellowship).
It's a privilege for me to teach children how to carry on the tradition of the guitar, as it is a wonderful instrument.
Guitar for Kids, Ages 8-18
Beginner Level Guitar
The Guitar Master program is an easy way for your child to learn to play the guitar. There are 25 packets that contain guitar parts, basic scales, notes, rhythm, strumming patterns, chords, etc., all while learning popular and fun, silly songs to build skill. Each packet helps your child progress further into theory and skill.
They use songs such as "London Bridge," "Down by the Bay," "Apples and Bananas," "The Muffin Man," "This Little Light of Mine", etc. to help build that skill.
Guitar is not an easy instrument to learn and it's instrument that you want to take your time learning. Depending on how quickly your child learns the basic skills will determine how fast we move through the Ninja program. For some, it may take a semester. But for others, it may take a year.
