To anyone thinking about learning or returning to playing guitar I would extremely highly recommend Your Guitar Academy. I've played guitar off and on all my life, usually with years of pauses because of life, about 3 years ago I broke my right wrist and had to have surgery in which they inserted a metal plate and 10 screws in my wrist. Working in China there is no rehab for this so I had to come up with some way to get my wrist semi-normal again. I had bought a used guitar from a store at the university I teach at and started "messing around" with it. Because of language difficulties its hard to find a guitar teacher who could speak English, and my Chinese is so so. So I was left to my own devices to come up with a program to relearn what I had forgotten and learn new things as well. So I did what most of us would do today.... I searched YouTube. YouTube can be useful for getting information, but not for learning guitar, in my opinion. Then I found one of Dan's videos on YouTube and started watching more. The structure and information was great, and as I university lecturer I know what a good lesson structure is. However, just watching the videos didn't cover everything for obvious reasons. I knew I needed more of the information that wasn't able to be discussed in a YouTube video, so I bought a couple of the courses. They are great!! Since starting these courses my playing skill has increased drastically, even to the point that I, with another foreign teacher and a Chinese music teacher have played live shows. The one other aspect of using this courseware is that they are willing to help you through any issues you have when downloading or unzipping the courseware. Again being in China does not allow easy access that I would have back home in America, so there were difficulties. When I emailed them Ollie responded with good information and helpful suggestions. I have emailed them with suggestions and questions so much that I consider Ollie not only a contact for problems but more like a friend helping another friend with a problem. These guys are good teachers, and that is hard to find nowadays, and they break everything down so anyone can understand. To tell you my faith and trust in these courses I will let you know that I am currently downloading 6 new courses to learn even more bring my total of courses to 28 courses. I have even bought a couple courses for my youngest daughter who is now starting to learn acoustic guitar. Guys... Good teachers and good resources for learning anything is hard to find, but here you have found it. So my advice to you is use the courses here to play like you always dreamed you would "someday" Someday is Today! Thanks. Hope to one day get to Britain and buy you guys a pint. :D P.S. sorry for such a long explanation, but there's a lot to cover. :)
