Learn barred chord shapes and pentatonic scales!

Your Intermediate Practice Routine include how to play barred chords and pentatonic scales.

A typical routine takes an exercise through several stages.

First individually (per shape), followed by a cycle of 4ths exercise and a connect shape exercise.

Finally a second layer of cycle of 4ths is added before you can stop practicing that specific scale, forever.

Use the Work Book to keep track of your progress.

Scale and Chord Exercises

In the intermediate routine you get individual exercises per shapes, as well as exercises that connect scale shapes.

Keep these exercises to a click and write down your results in the work book to keep track of your progression

However, scale practice is not enough, it’s important to apply all this knowledge and we do this through jamming with the scales!

Jam Tracks

To try the scales out, apply your knowledge to the Blues Jam Tracks and the 2 Chord Loops for licks and challenges to test your pentatonic scale shapes.

All jam tracks are loop-able so you can try licks and scale ideas until you are a happy.

If you record yourself on video and upload to Youtube you can get feedback on your performance!

This has proved to be a very efficient method since students can look back at old footage and actually trace their progression!
