Progress he Sonora Guitar Intensive is a great (and intense) program that helped me break out of a rut in my guitar playing, and I have made real progress since then. More progress than in the last 10 years, in a matter of months. It does take some dedication, but if you are looking to get further in your practice, check out SGI

One of the best decisions I've made One of the best decisions I've made. The cost of the program at the time of my participation was roughly the equivalent of 60-minute weekly private lessons for one (to two) years. I benefited immensely from the sequencing and independent pacing of the curriculum and learned guitar in a way I had not been able to through self-led study. When I had more time, I progressed very quickly; and when I had a baby and had to adjust my practice commitments, it was right there, ready whenever I was. Three years later, I find myself wanting to go back through certain points of the program to further deepen my skills. And, unlike private lessons, I can still utilize the program for study. It's not a one-time benefit!

Truly a pathway to fluency Going from one lesson a week with a guitar teacher to then transitioning to a program like Sonora was a game changer. You are able to improve your skills drastically. With step by step guides on what to practice, why you're practicing what you're practicing and a clear path to fretboard fluency. I've made many connections with things I'd been playing for a long time but didn't understand, and beyond. It's a great feeling being in the hands of an amazing program like this along with their outstanding mentors.

The program has been great The program has been great. There is so much fundamental information and instruction that really makes you a better player from the ground up. There is also so many other resources you can take advantage of from players of all skill levels. It's been a great experience even though I have moved through very slowly. If I have ever had a question, it has been responded to quickly and thoughtfully.

Sonora Guitar Intensive rocks!!! Sonora Guitar Intensive rocks!!! I have learned so much from Michael. Mostly, he has given me the confidence that I need to make it to where I want to be as a guitar player. You would think that in this day and age, you could accomplish that with YouTube, however, there's nothing like the real deal. A person that will analyze your playing, that will give you feedback, that will let you know when you are doing something wrong and when you are doing something right, and support you with enthusiasm every step of the way. I highly recommend giving Sonora Guitar Intensive a try. I have been doing it for 9 months now and my guitar playing reflects it.
