Learning to play the guitar is an exciting time in your life! We at Los Angeles Guitar Academy Online help you take the worry out of the learning process and help you to focus on the excitement. To this end, we offer several advantages that will help you get off to a good start.

The Best Guitar Technique

First of all, for beginners, our guitar method takes you step-by step through the process of learning to play the guitar. We start with the fundamentals: instrument choice, posture, and preparation; followed by a thorough grounding in technique for both your right hand and your left hand--the basic principles of playing the guitar, as well as the terminology guitarists use. We will teach you to coordinate your hands as you play, so that you can play your guitar easily, in a relaxed manner, so that your guitar lessons and practice will be the high point of your day!

Next, we teach you how to play your very first music, in very small, easy-to-understand steps with your comfort in mind. Easy-to-follow drills and exercises build on the basics to ensure that you master each skill before you move on to the next. We explain the complicated world of musical terminology in plain English, allowing ample time for you to grasp each concept.

After you have completed your first level in your chosen style, you move on to our intermediate-level repertoire, where you will begin to hone your skills to levels that you would have never dreamed to be possible when you began.

Finally, our advanced-level courses will set your technique and artistry way above the rest of the crowd. For those who want to go on to study music at the university, or in a conservatory, we offer a live, one-on-one online guitar course that you can take to prepare for the challenges you will face in the academic world. Our faculty has prepared students for auditions at some of the best music schools in the country.

About LAGA Online

In January 2009, Los Angeles Guitar Academy launched its online guitar lesson platform, LAGA Online.

From its humble beginnings as a simple repertoire database for its in-studio classes and private lessons, LAGA Online expanded its options into a stand-alone program which has attracted students from all over North America. For the first time, LAGA students could now enjoy learning to play the guitar from the comfort of their own homes.

LAGA Online has something for every guitarist, regardless of level or playing style. A systematic, comprehensive curriculum, LAGA Online has more than two thousand videos which cover classical guitar, Flamenco guitar, fingerboard theory and more. This on-demand platform offers unlimited access to guitar lessons twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. In addition to these on-demand programs, guitarists can even take live one-on-one lessons, virtually bringing LAGA's world-class teaching staff right into their home!

LAGA's internationally-acclaimed instructors, Dr. Emre Sabuncuoglu and Thomas Foster, sequence the tutorials in each program by skill sets and proficiency levels. The lessons are supplemented with sheet music files, articles, tips, technical and musical comments. The lessons progress in small steps in order to provide you with the opportunity to master each new skill set. Students can learn at their own pace, taking time to understand each concept before moving on the next.
