Amazing day surrounded by amazing musicians. I have only been playing for a year, but the day is tailored to each persons skill level so you can be involved throughout (don't worry about those pre-gig nerves!) Dan was brilliant and the day flowed beautifully. Even had a drummer for the last few hours which made it feel really special! Book it now if you're thinking about it!

Blues Jam day was a great opportunity to play with other guitarists . Although I regularly play with friends in a band , it was still very valuable for me to play with different people having different approaches to soloing . Dan is super friendly and made us feel very confortable to just "go for it" at what ever level eah of us were at. And I left with concrete steps for improving as a guitarist. Great fun.

I have noodled on the guitar for several years and have tried all the big name sites with very little progress. I was looking for an option online where I could actually learn. I had some theory knowledge but translating it to the guitar was less than fluid and becoming very frustrating. I saw an ad for your guitar academy and after seeing how fantastic their free classes were I knew I had found the right place. They set up a lesson plan that was specified for my musical tastes and were spot on as far as where I needed to start after asking a few basic questions. After a very short time I have noticed the concepts I knew (or thought I knew) before are starting to come together and make sense. I am so happy I joined. They also have a wonderful community that provides positive feedback for one another as well as constructive tips to take all of our playing to the next level. Thank you Dan! You have a life long member! update: I did my first private lesson today and it was excellent. The small things that someone can point out on technique which are such easy fixes makes all the difference. Thanks Kallil!

Jed Cutler is an exemplary teacher - friendly, knowledgeable and plays like the devil himself! Jed has helped to relight my passion for the guitar after a 10 year hiatus and I greatly look forward to our lessons as we explore the blues. Jed has been a huge help in bringing me on as a player through his technical skills and guidance on music theory. I would not be where I am without his support. Jed gives me weekly assignments which I find extremely useful and responds quickly to any questions regarding them. I also block book 10 lessons at a time to take advantage of the discounted rate. Every week I learn a little bit more - cheers Jed!

Our instructor has listened to exactly what we wanted. He encourages my daughter to push herself outside her comfort zone. If there hasn;t been much practice, he still moves her on with appropriate level training skills and techniques. Very impressed!

My son taught himself to play guitar using Guitar Academy. He now plays really well and has 3 guitars (acoustic and electric). When I told him I'd like to learn guitar too, he said I should try Guitar Academy. He said they were amazing and he's right. The lessons are doable but progressive, and I really like that you get a play a song very early on in the course. I loved learning a song called 'Without You'. I thought it was so good that I assumed it was a cover. I searched You Tube to see who had sung the original, no-one it seems. I contacted Guitar Academy and was told it had been written by them a long time ago and there were no lyrics available. Ollie at Guitar Academy then got back saying he'd transcribed the lyrics for me. So if you've got any qualms about customer service, there's your answer. I'd noticed that others had also asked for the lyrics as they'd like the song too, so now they're available. I'm really looking forward learning more with them and to the next song. Caroline

I purchased the Jimi Hendrix course for my little girl (12 year old). Can’t afford a teacher and to be honest she is more than happy with the course. It is put together very carefully with original content yet completely conveying that Hendrix feel we all love. I liked that from simple concept and easy to play basics it went to complicated licks and chord progression without having massive steps in between. I also liked that the theory was explained with such an ease that it was natural to take it in. Thanks very much Dan :)

I've been playing and learning self taught for two years and wanted to learn more formally including theory. Excellent courses. So far I've taken the full theory course, blues and Frusciante player study. Great instruction. I'm giving it 5 stars for the content, only issue is that videos are hosted on Dropbox and sometimes pause ... this is especially annoying when trying to rewatch sections over again and skipping through the video. A better streaming solution would be great, but that's secondary to the content.

I have played the guitar for many years but seem to have reached a point where I have found it very difficult to improve further. Having now discovered “Your Guitar Academy” I am working through the Guitar Gym exercises which has certainly improved my technique in a relatively short space of time. The videos are all presented in an easy to follow and enjoyable way. I have also started The Angus Young player study course which is just fantastic because it is delivered in a structured way which makes it easy to follow. Also, the track which is presented for study sounds just like the great man himself. I highly recommend YGA for anyone who really wants to play guitar and get the very best out of the instrument. Well done to Dan at YGA and keep up the good work. Richard

Brilliant! i started learning guitar a few months ago, i have tried a couple of other learning platforms but YGA has come out best, the videos and accompanying literature are excellent, once your chosen course is downloaded then you can watch as many times as you like, the instruction is clear and easy to follow. you can pick and choose what to learn as each course teaches you what you need to know to accomplish a result. i like that you can buy parts of a course at a time so its spreading the (very reasonable) cost.

Great content, really! It's pragmatic, a tiny bit challenging but achievable and, above all, the songs and exercises and super engaging and cool which makes us just not bother too much with having to practice the same song for large amount of time.

Paul Chandler has been an exemplary guitar teacher to our daughter. She had covered so much in the short time that he had taught her, including getting her Grade 3 pass for Guitar. He has been extremely patient and encouraging with our daughter, pointing out in a gentle way, areas that needed improvement and practice. Paul was also extremely flexible with our ever changing schedule, and worked around it. We had to cancel our lessons with Paul as our daughter is now at boarding school (and is taking lessons at school), but she misses his teaching style so much that we are going to see if we can resume lessons with him on weekends and school holidays. We would highly recommend Paul and YGA.

I was attempting to learn guitar for over 6 months online by myself & was getting nowhere! I started with Rax & he taught me a lot of the fundementals I was missing from online. Rax is a chill guy & adjusts your learning to what songs you want to learn. If you're looking to start playing the guitar, I'd highly reccomend!

Before my mum found YGA I had no clue what I was doing and although I tried to learn from youtube I got to a point where I couldn't do more. I started lessons with Rax not too long ago and already see so much improvement. Rax is an amazing guitar teacher. I have learnt so much from him and over a few lessons he has already got me to start working towards my grade 2 exam.

I had 10 lessons with Rax and I learned so much and enjoyed every minute of the process. I probably learned more in those 10 or so weeks than I have done in the previous 10 years. His teaching style is so relaxed and everything he gave me was perfect for my level of playing at the time. He’s also a really nice guy. Will definitely go back when I get more time to play (new ish dad).
