This is Dyce Kimura and I offer advanced guitar lessons in Miami. Today I am talking to advanced guitar students. I wanted to do a video blog about some things that I have seen in advanced students, and maybe I can help you. This video is targeting specifically people who are hitting a wall in their playing. Advanced guitar lessons in Miami. If you’ve been playing for at least two years, and you’ve been learning on your own or just with some courses or tutorials, maybe you took some classes here and there but, you are hitting a wall, and you feel stuck, and you’re not getting much better, I want to talk to you.
So you are already practicing. I assume you are probably really smart because you are learning on your own, you are able to teach yourself. You are able to go on YouTube and figure stuff out on your own. I teach advanced guitar lessons in Miami. But you can’t seem to get any better than you are now. You have fundamental problems in the way you are playing. And you are not even sure what the problem is or why. You just know that if you do something a little too complex, you can never solve it. I want to talk about what could possibly be going on in your playing, curriculum and practicing routine that is the problem. I am a full time guitar teacher and I am fortunate to work with a lot of advanced students. I offer advanced guitar lessons in Miami. They come into my office after already been playing for years, sometimes decades. I got a guy right now, and he’s been playing for 50 years by himself and then he finally came to see me. So I have situations like that where I am interacting with people who have been at this for a really long time, and they finally decide to come see me, and they are stuck.
If you are stuck, you have to be willing to take a look at what you are currently doing, and what you are not doing. And at what is working and what is not working. I teach advanced guitar lessons in Miami. So a lot of people that I have been meeting who have made it but are self-taught, but advance on their own, the way they got to where they are is they took a lot of online courses, or they did a bunch of YouTube stuff, and it had a lot to do with just copying what they see on the screen. ‘Monkey see, monkey do’. So they learn a chord, the guy taught them a chord, and then they learn a song, because they saw a video that played the song. They read the tabs. But they are having fundamental issues. I teach advanced guitar lessons in Miami. They don’t know how to improvise for instance. They can learn a song note for note, but they cannot improvise. They cannot understand the applications of scales and modes. They are struggling with basic music theory like when does a minor chord work versus a major chord. How to write chord progressions. I offer advanced guitar lessons in Miami. And a lot of times there will be funny little quirks in their playing too, like they don’t use their pinky, they are not fluid with alternate picking though they think they are. They don’t understand the fundamentals of rhythm like eighth notes and back beats and stuff. They didn’t really take the time to learn the pentatonic scale because they seem too easy and they went after much harder scales like, mixolydian or Dorian or Aeolian and then couldn’t even play basic stuff. Sometimes they have issue with gear too. Like they just can’t even make their gear sound good, and they keep buying more stuff to hook into it hoping it will sound good. I teach advanced guitar lessons in Miami. I experience all kinds of people who are coming into my office with varying degrees of frustrations when it comes to playing the guitar. I just wanted to address that.
This is just such a huge topic but it is exciting for me to work with advanced students and it’s also challenging for me to work with advanced students. Sometimes they have what I would call a ‘holy grail mentality’ or a ‘silver bullet mentality’. I offer advanced guitar lessons in Miami. What it is, is let’s say they are on a level of 100 and their goal is to get to like 315, and they just start doing songs at 350 that are way above their level. But in their heads they say, well if I can get this song figured out then I will actually be at 350. And these people are usually really smart people. They are usually the people who are so smart in life that they’re like, you know what I’ve taken a lot of shortcuts, I always figure out the fastest, and quickest way to get things done, so I can just cut to the chase here. I can just get the tabs, I can get the songs like the guitar pro, I can get the software that is going to teach me and I can just play these complex songs. I teach advanced guitar lessons in Miami.
