COME PLay in The Dojo!

The Dojo uses high-quality video and audio instruction, guided journeys, play-alongs, multiple types of musical notation, comprehensive diagrams, and other material to help you develop the skills and abilities to be the player you've always wanted to be.

A fundamental operating principle here at the Dojo is that you are your best instructor. You know what you can or cannot do, what you need to learn—this is not "one size fits all"! Our mission is to create an environment in which you can discover your unique connection to music, clarify your goals and aspirations, and create a development plan to move you towards those.

There are lots of different approaches to acquiring knowledge about playing the guitar or music theory. Rather than learning "theory" for its own sake, Dojo classes are designed to introduce music or guitar theory at the "right time" so that it's relevant to and supportive of your learning goals and objectives.

Whether it's through discussions in a forum setting, sharing performance and feedback videos, or participating in online events, the Dojo is all about engagement. The most significant development activities come when we are fully engaged -- with ourselves, others, and new situations which call on us to "up our game."

Exercises and resources contained within the Dojo are intended to be used as a means to an end -- discovering your unique connection to music, cultivating your ability to deeply listen, and being able to generate practical, actionable insights that take you to the next level on your musical journey.

Whether you're using a job aid, taking a self-assessment exercise, receiving comments on a performance challenge, or getting a recommendation for resources that will boost your development, the Dojo is a place for you to get answers to important questions on your musical journey.
