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, and 5. After level 2, they will be assessed as to whether they can join my advanced program through levels 3, 4 and 5.
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
Guitar Ninja Pro is an easy way for your child to learn to play the guitar. Here your child will learn all about the guitar parts, basic scales, notes, rhythm, strumming patterns, chords, etc., all while learning popular and fun, silly songs to build skill.
Songs such as "London Bridge," "Down by the Bay," "Apples and Bananas," "The Muffin Man," "This Little Light of Mine", etc.
Within this book, there are 11 Ninja Star levels they must complete. The Ninja Star levels help the student to gain skill in each of the areas mentioned above.
Once the student complete the book and the 11 Ninja Star levels, then they will move into level 1 guitar and be able to choose songs from my guitar supplemental book.

Guitar for kids Levels 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5
What Happens Next?
Each year your child will advance to a new level in their guitar lessons. In each level, they will learn more strumming patterns, picking patterns, tab, pentascales, chords, notes and so much more all while learning all of the language of music. I will also introduce duet playing with other instruments in their music lessons.
Favorite Songs
They can also choose their own favorite songs that I will use to smooth out their guitar playing experiences.
Advanced Guitar
Advanced Guitar Program: I am introducing a new program this year to the Tween level. I am requiring that all students must complete level 3. Then they can choose to do level 4 and 5 or they can move into the advanced program which is a lot more challenging but very rewarding. Of course, I will be evaluating whether or not a student is actually ready for the advanced program after they complete level 3.
Compositional Pieces
One of the most exciting things about our studio is your child will have a chance to compose their own piece. This will happen with any age level. This is done to help them understand how a piece is put together and how to determine the sound of a piece.
**Make sure when you go to the registration page, you write down which level your child is on. You can ask if you are not sure.**
