Summer Classes

Christina Berg
Do you like to sing? Do you want to learn to play chords on the guitar? If so, try it for five weeks this summer. If you like it, continue your classes in September.
Guitar With Christina is a music program for beginners, starting 2nd – 5th grade, who want to learn to sing and play chords on their guitars. You will get an individualized guitar & song book with well known songs as well as new songs. You will learn the basics for playing, and sing many songs. Returning students will continue to strum, pluck, sing, play “tab” and melody. Groups of two to three students of the same age and level will play together.
Taking Summer Guitar classes is a great way to explore the new instrument and start your music education in a positive and child friendly atmosphere. Parents are welcome to attend the lessons and learn the basics too.
