Virus Concerns & Student Info

I hope this note finds you all safe and secure during this crisis. Everyone's health and safety is first and foremost on our minds at SDML Academy of Guitar.

This note is specifically to focus on how we're moving forward with my students of guitar (& all other instruments, like bass, piano, ukulele, percussion, & voice). Workshop students will receive a workshop-specific note.

As current PRIVATE students already know, we have transitioned completely to VIRTUAL lessons using all the technology at out disposal (texting lessons sheets, providing recorded video support, and live streaming where necessary).

We are also transitioning the new GROUP session students to VIRTUAL by utilizing our VGC (Virtual Guitar Class) option at the academy website.

PRIVATE AND GROUP: Please go to https://www.sdmlguitar.com/sdml-membership and see the "membership" page, and sign up. There will be NO COST for current students. NEW students will get a 60 day FREE trial.

In securing this membership, you will gain access to ALL online support materials (videos, docs, etc), event discounts, and the like.

GROUP: Enroll in Virtual Guitar Class (VGC) here: https://forms.gle/M3qv9CztLBhAPSFb9
Once you are enrolled, I will send each weekly lesson to you via text & email. We will continue this approach until things return to some sense of normalcy, and group lessons are again something we can do face-to-face at Willis Music.

PRIVATE: I'm working out the kinks now, and by next week everyone will receive your lesson on your scheduled lesson day OR EARLIER! We will continue this approach until things return to some sense of normalcy, and private lessons are again something we can do face-to-face at Hurst Music.

PAYMENT: All payments can be made on-line directly to me at www.PayPal.me/SkinnyDevilMusic with PRIVATE lessons at a cost of $100/month and GROUP lessons at a cost of $200 per 8-week session.

We also have the "SDML Guitar Students and Alumni” Facebook group at https://www.facebook.com/groups/1719226828167925 and I would suggest everyone join the group.

In the words of Paulie Felice (SDML Program Director): Thanks to all of you for cooperating on this, and please do not hesitate to contact me for help. I’m expecting a lot of questions and requests for assistance, because this is a confusing situation and a new reality for now!

Stay safe and stay strong!
