The introductory lesson (below is a sample portion of the video) teaches you how to hold the instrument, position your hand and the fingers for the best results. It includes enjoyable music-making pieces that also help the learner develop solid basic skills and play duets! The introductory courses are ideal for students of all ages. Much of the material of the beginning video lessons come from Dr. Zisa’s Book: Learning to Play the Guitar Step by Step for Children and Their Parents
