Book a guitar teacher in Kanata

Pricing depends on a few key elements:

A beginner guitarist should start with five core skills: guitar anatomy, proper posture, tuning, open chords, and basic strumming.

• Guitar anatomy: understanding terms like fret, nut, and bridge makes lessons much easier to follow.
• Posture and hand position: good posture protects your back and wrists while making chord changes smoother.
• Tuning: use a clip-on tuner or app until your ear develops; playing out of tune builds bad habits.
• Open chords: these five shapes let you play countless popular songs within weeks.
• Strumming patterns: start with simple quarter-note strums before adding syncopation.

With these basics solid, you can learn almost any beginner song and build toward barre chords and fingerpicking.

The 3 fret rule connects minor and major pentatonic scales: move any minor pentatonic shape down 3 frets and you get the relative major pentatonic.

• How it works: if you know the Am pentatonic box at fret 5, moving it to fret 2 gives you G major pentatonic instantly.
• Why it matters: learning one pattern unlocks both minor and major sounds without extra memorization.
• When to use it: minor pentatonic sounds bluesy and emotional; major pentatonic feels bright and uplifting.

Private lessons help you internalize this connection so switching scales becomes automatic.
