Learn to play the guitar with classical guitarist and composer Gregorio Rivera!
Gregorio is offering Acoustic Guitar classes on Saturdays for Beginner or Refresher from 10 a.m.- 11 a.m..
Each class is one hour: 30 min theory, 30 min practice. Each student will come with their acoustic guitar. No amps. Class size is small so that Gregorio can individualize instruction for your level of skill.
Gregorio teaches with notes, and each student will get a small music notebook to write down each lesson.
What can you expect? It takes about 6 months to learn the basics. Later on, we can get a jam band going for the advanced students. We could jam on Beatles, Folk Songs, etc.
