Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know before starting your gentle guitar journey with us.
How much time should I practice as a beginner?⌄
Aim for 15–25 minutes per day, five days a week. Short daily sessions build reliable muscle memory and keep learning calm and enjoyable without burnout.
Do I need a steel-string acoustic or a classical guitar?⌄
Either works beautifully. Steel strings deliver a brighter tone; nylon classical strings feel softer on your fingertips. Choose the feel you prefer and we adapt the curriculum accordingly.
Will I learn full songs?⌄
Yes. We build chord families and strumming patterns that quickly form complete, chorus-ready progressions. Most students play their first full song within three weeks.
What if my hands are small or I have wrist tension?⌄
We use ergonomic shapes such as Cmaj7, Em7 and D6/9 along with hand-friendly routines. You learn to relax your shoulders, angle the neck properly, and breathe with the rhythm.
How are live workshops different from lesson packs?⌄
Lesson packs are self-paced videos with structured practice plans you can follow on your own schedule. Workshops are live, small-group sessions that provide real-time feedback, accountability and encouragement.
Can I start without any music theory knowledge?⌄
Absolutely. We teach primarily by sound and feel. Music theory appears gradually only as helpful labels once you can already play simple, beautiful progressions.
How do you prevent lessons from feeling overwhelming?⌄
Every lesson contains only one clear goal and ends with a small win. Clear weekly plans remove all guesswork so you can simply show up and strum.
Do you offer refunds?⌄
We provide a 14-day satisfaction window on all self-paced lesson packs. Live workshops may be rescheduled once at no extra charge. Full details are available in our Terms.
Is there a supportive community?⌄
Every course includes gentle reflection prompts and optional sharing spaces that focus on encouragement, kindness and celebrating progress rather than competition.
