Module 1: Chord Foundations
Start with the essential chord skills every guitarist needs: form basic chords, switch between them more smoothly, follow a simple progression, and play one movable power chord shape. This module prepares you to add steady strumming and rhythm in the next module.
📙 If you’re just starting out, the Guitar Essentials Ebook is a great guide to help you learn the fundamentals and start playing songs on your own.
