Learn to solo over jazz changes with intention
A structured jazz guitar course and feedback community for guitarists who want a clear path beyond pentatonic patterns.
Jazz Guitar 101 gives you a deliberate, semester-style path for building real jazz soloing skills.
You’ll learn how to hear the form, follow chord changes, build stronger lines, and practice with purpose instead of jumping between random videos.
Designed for adults with some guitar experience who want structure, feedback, and a clear next step.
Pentatonic runs only get you so far
You can play guitar. Perhaps you've played for years.
You know some scales, some chords, and maybe a few jazz shapes.
But you may be at a loss for how to approach playing over chord changes.
Every time you search for help, you land inside another giant video library with no clear order, no feedback, and no way to know what to practice next.
A clear path through the first real layer of jazz guitar
Jazz Guitar 101 is structured like a semester of college jazz guitar lessons.
One lesson leads to the next. Each concept has a reason. Each practice assignment builds on what came before.
You are not left to wander through endless lessons, playlists, and theory rabbit holes.
You follow a sequence that helps you connect fretboard knowledge, harmony, rhythm, and melody into solos that make sense over jazz chord changes.
Stop guessing and start understanding
By the end of Jazz Guitar 101, you’ll have a stronger foundation for navigating jazz standards with confidence.
You’ll know how to outline the harmony instead of running one scale over everything.
You’ll have practice tools that help you stay inside the form.
You’ll start building lines that sound connected to the chords underneath them.
And you’ll have a repeatable way to keep improving after the course ends.
Learn from a guitarist who has taught it and lived it
Your instructor brings years of college teaching experience to the course.
That matters because good jazz instruction is not just showing advanced ideas. It is knowing how to break them down in the right order.
The teaching is grounded in real-world playing experience too, including touring with artists such as Ray Charles, Frankie Valli, Anjani with Leonard Cohen, Gordon Goodwins Phat Band, Alphonse Mouzon, and recording in Los Angeles studios for a variety of television shows and artists such as Tierney Sutton, Janis Siegel and others.
You get practical instruction from someone who understands the classroom, the bandstand, and the studio.
Get feedback instead of practicing in isolation
Jazz Guitar 101 includes access to a student community where you can post short videos of your playing, ask questions, and connect with other guitarists working through the same material.
- Post a short clip
- Get instructor feedback
- See what other students are practicing
- Ask the questions that come up between lessons
- Stay accountable without needing to figure everything out alone

Do I need to be an advanced guitarist?
No. Jazz Guitar 101 is designed for players with some guitar experience. You should be comfortable playing basic chords, and practicing simple scale or melody ideas. You do not need to already be a jazz player.
Is this for complete beginners?
Will this help if I rely too much on pentatonic scales?
Is this just a big video library?
No. Jazz Guitar 101 is intentionally sequenced. The point is not to overwhelm you with endless content. The point is to guide you through the right lessons in the right order. The first module contains preparatory material consisting of 4 lessons.
The next 8 modules contain one video lesson each, and are each using a tune to delve into particular topics.
Can I ask questions?
Can I get feedback on my playing?
Yes. Students can post short - 3 minutes or less - videos inside the community for instructor feedback.
