Play for 15 seconds or a whole song! Build experience and confidence playing in front of others. "This is an incredibly supportive audience, as we all known how nervous you are, because we are too!"
Advanced players
: show us what you're working on and get some experience playing in front of others. Then stick around and take some risks at the beginner jam! (try bass or a 7 string guitar or drums?)
Beginning players
: listen to what other students are working on, see what YOU will be able to do in the future (remember, even our advanced students started at ZERO). Then stick around and be awkward in a jam! SUPER low stress, I'll show you how to NOT make mistakes.
