GUITAR WORKSHOPS
With Joey
GROUP ONLINE GUITAR WORKSHOPS
After 50 years of playing the guitar, I think back and wish I had learned certain things in a different sequence or with a more practical approach.
Now I’m formulating workshops for people who are either basic/beginner level or more intermediate/advanced, sharing knowledge that was imparted to me by some of the greatest guitarists of the 20th century…
All this with the intention of opening some new musical doors and showing you ways to have a more musical experience on the instrument.
The main objective here is to have fun and connect more with the muse.

MY “NAME-YOUR-PRICE” philosophy…
Since we’re living in an “interesting” time and earnings seem to be in a constant flux lately, I’ve decided to make these workshops conducive and accessible to as many people as possible. We all need a little more joy in our lives, right?Therefore, I’m offering this series as a sliding scale payment option. That means you get to “Name Your Price” for each class you attend, based on your personal situation… no questions asked!
When you click the button to enroll, you will first be directed to a page to enter your email address and name, then to a Paypal donation page. You simply enter the amount you’d like to pay, choose whether you’d like to help offset the Paypal fee (I’d appreciate it very much if you did!), then complete payment. You can enter a credit card, or use your personal Paypal account, but either way, you’re not required to have a Paypal account set up to do this.
BEGINNER/INTERMEDIATE
This Workshop Series is for you if you already have some experience with basic guitar playing and wish to unravel the bigger mystery of how to play more musically. It’s also for any intermediate student who wants to take their playing to a new level. You’ll learn the basics of how to play in all keys, gain a broader understanding of music and how it’s put together on the fingerboard, as well as mind-shifting ways to hear and create music in a different way. What you learn can be applied to any genre you choose. Theory and ear training are not a prerequisite.
INTERMEDIATE/ADVANCED
This WorkShop Series corresponds with the Beginner/Intermediate Level workshops. You’ll learn how to see things hidden within your fingers that you may not have noticed before; how to move individual lines independently within chords like a pianist, and how to approach the guitar as if it’s a mini-orchestra. We’ll delve into chord sequences with the ultimate goal of being able to figure out and play thousands of songs by ear, in any key. Theory and ear training are not prerequisite, but will ultimately help.
