I feel for the first time in my guitar practice that there is a systematic method to command the relationship between the music, the melody, the harmonic structures and the fretboard to improvise. Your way of teaching is a gift that fosters motivation and real pleasure.” – José Martinez (Valladolid, Spain)“Thank you so much, David.

My confidence has grown exponentially and I am really playing and exploring with awareness.” – Clint Parsons (Amsterdam, Netherlands)“Thank you very much for this course.
