Ryan’s teaching style is built on:
Clear and relatable communication
Creating a safe, judgment-free environment
Helping students work through frustration instead of ignoring it
This course isn’t about rushing or comparing yourself to anyone else — it’s about real, noticeable progress. As you move through each level, you’ll build confidence, understanding, and control over the guitar in a way that feels natural and sustainable. Instead of random lessons, you’ll follow a clear progression where each level builds on the last, helping you move from uncertainty to comfort, and from comfort to real musical freedom. By staying consistent and trusting the process, you won’t just “know more” — you’ll actually play more, with clarity, confidence, and momentum.
Your guitar journey is built on a solid foundation. You’ll start with the basics: the parts of the guitar, strings, positioning, and technique, all presented engagingly and understandably.
Now, you get to start playing! You’ll begin the process of learning chords and chord shapes, practice for transitioning between chords, and fun strumming rhythms. You will be playing your favorite songs in no time!
Build on the chords you’ve learned with single notes, riffs, and licks. Here, you will gain the confidence to jam just like your favorite guitarists and create riffs that are totally your own.
Now, you’ve learned everything you need to really start rocking! Combine all the knowledge, skills, and confidence you’ve gained to jam with friends, play your favorite tunes, or create songs of your own.
The Ros Angeles Guitar Method is built around:
Progress Over Perfection
One clear path instead of random videos
Reducing frustration, not increasing it.
Learning guitar doesn’t have to be isolating — and it definitely doesn’t have to be intimidating. Inside the course, you’ll also get access to a private, members-only community hosted on Circle, where students are learning alongside you at every stage.
This community is designed to be supportive, respectful, and pressure-free. It’s a place to ask questions, share small wins, and see that the challenges you’re experiencing are completely normal. Whether you prefer to actively participate or simply read and learn from others, the community is there to support your progress — without comparison or ego.
Get help when something doesn’t feel right — whether it’s a technique, concept, or mindset issue. Questions are welcomed and encouraged, no matter how basic they feel.
See how others are progressing through the same lessons and challenges. This helps normalize frustration, reinforce consistency, and remind you that progress looks different for everyone.
Post milestones like your first clean chord, smoother transitions, or simply sticking with practice. These moments build momentum and confidence — and they’re celebrated here.
Sometimes hearing a concept explained in a different way makes all the difference. The community adds an extra layer of understanding and reassurance when you need it.
No. This program is designed for beginners and returning players.
Even short, consistent sessions work. The program is built for busy adults.
That’s exactly who this course is for. Most programs skip over why things feel hard and assume you’ll just push through. This method addresses frustration directly, explains what’s happening in your hands and mind, and gives you a clear path forward so you don’t stall or give up again.
Adults learn differently than kids. This method respects your time, explains the “why” behind techniques, and focuses on confidence and momentum instead of pressure and comparison.
Yes. Every lesson includes brief, guided quizzes that act as checkpoints to help you confirm your understanding and stay on track. They’re designed to support your progress — not judge it — and give you clarity before moving forward.
