    Become A Better Guitar Player Every Time You Pick Up Your Guitar

    If you want Minneapolis – Saint Paul guitar lessons that will help you achieve your goals, fast, keep reading…

    Our Twin Cities guitar coaching is FOR YOU if you’re:

      • A beginner completely lost how to get started playing guitar the right way,
      • An experienced gutiarist stuck in a rut, unsure of what to learn or focus on to make consistent and swift progress to take your playing to the next level.
      • Spinning your wheels learning from random YouTube videos, books, or your buddy “who knows how to play” with no real plan on what to work on or how to practice to get the best results.

    Many players make these same mistakes. Until they realize that working with a professional music teacher providing first-rate guitar lessons is key. Professional music lessons can help them progress faster than they ever thought they could.

    If you’re a beginner, the first few months of playing guitar can be extremely frustrating. These sharp thin strings cutting into your fingers. You’re not quite sure how to even hold the pick properly. Even worse, every few notes sound like a *thunk* from your fretting fingers touching the wrong strings.

    It can be equally frustrating if you’ve been playing for a while, maybe 2, 10, or even 20+ years. But still not being at the level you feel like you should be… your playing just not coming together no matter what you try.

    I taught myself for years without taking guitar lessons when I first started playing guitar. It left me feeling discouraged, confused, and way behind where I could have been as a player.

    I just wanted to learn how to play different styles of music on my guitar...

    What’s The Best Way To Learn To Sound Amazing On The Guitar?

    Once I began taking in-person guitar lessons near me, my playing skills improved massively and in record time. I learned how to practice efficiently and effectively. Inspired and motivated, I discovered how to solve problems on the guitar which took my playing to a whole new level.

    Soon, I realized the best way to reach the level I wanted was to take guitar lessons with a great guitar teacher.

    If you live in the Minneapolis – Saint Paul, MN area, a certified guitar instructor at Twin Cities School of Guitar can do the same for you!

    You don’t have to constantly spin your wheels learning some riffs and licks, watching YouTube videos, with no real strategy on how to be a cohesive player.

    If this sounds like you... it's not your fault.

    You may be incorrectly diagnosing what's really holding you back.

    Before they come to me, many students think the issue is with them.

    They incorrectly think things like:

  • I don't have enough time to practice
  • I'm too old
  • I'm too young
  • My hands are too small
  • My hands are too big
  • I don't have rhythm
  • I'm not creative
  • I could never play fast
  • Other nonsense

    If this is you, get these ideas out of your head!

    The problem isn’t you. The problem is your method. And the solution to this problem is a guitar teacher who will deeply inspire you, motivate you, and show you how exactly what to do to overcome your guitar playing obstacles. Of course, all while you’re having a lot of fun along the journey.

    I haven't met anyone who doesn't have the potential to be a great guitar player if they have the right teacher.

    Working with a great teacher is the best way to learn to play guitar. It doesn’t matter if you need acoustic guitar or electric guitar lessons. Without shining a light on the areas that you can't see or don't know to look for, you'll never (or at the very least it will take years or decades longer to) get to the level you want on the guitar.

    But with a teacher, you will discover these (often simple) missing pieces in your playing, technique, or practicing; you can break out of any plateau no matter what level you're at currently.

“I tried teaching myself to play guitar and I wasn’t making any progress. With Ryan I picked up playing quickly. I appreciate not only his teaching skills but his encouragement as well. Ryan is great to work with!”

Not All Guitar Lessons Are The Same

Most guitar teachers have little knowledge on how to make an efficient plan for you to make progress. Many instructors have the best intentions, they simply don’t know how to teach students effectively.

Even if they are great players, they likely have little training on how to actually teach guitar. No matter how good a player someone is, if they haven't been trained to teach they will be completely ineffective in helping you achieve your goals on the guitar.

You need someone who knows exactly how to help you play the guitar the way you want to play.

“I would highly recommend Twin Cities School of Guitar. It has been a desire of mine for years. I’d looked at YouTube videos, googled chords for songs I’d like to learn… but the lack of structure was getting me nowhere. I’d gladly recommend starting lessons to anyone who is interested. I thought it would be more difficult starting as an adult, but it has been a really enjoyable experience.”
