Gain a Strong Understanding of What Happens in Your Favorite Songs
Rhythm is in everything. For me, one of the hardest parts of learning new songs, riffs, and solos was being able to space everything properly. Looking at tablature that also came with rhythmic notation could only help so much.
Ever look at some tab, then listen to the part of a song you wish to learn, and still feel stumped? It's like your brain just can't make the connection?
That's what this course is about! Teaching you how to read, count, and understand rhythms so you can tackle anything you wish to learn!
This course has been carefully crafted to benefit a wide variety of guitar players. Each section has varying levels of complexity at a variety of tempos. That means you learn at the pace and tempo you want. The section-ending etudes provide you with the chance to put everything together. With them, you’ll solidify your ability to switch between different rhythm patterns. As you conquer each one, watch your confidence soar.

Make Writing Your Own Music Easier
The more rhythms you can play and understand, the more options you have in your own song writing! Being able to count the things you play enables you to write down your own music for yourself (so you never forget your riffs), and to communicate with other musicians.
One of the biggest obstacles I've seen with my students when it comes to writing their own material is they don't exactly know what they're playing. Sure, the may be able to play the music on their own, with no drum track, no metronome, and no other instruments. But, most music is going to have the guitar on top of drums, bass, and perhaps being played with a second guitar.
If you want to record you own music, and play with other musicians, the better your rhythm skills the better your music making and collaboration skills!

Great for Beginners, Intermediate, and Advanced Intermediate Players
Even if you have zero experience reading any kind of rhythm notation, you're in good hands! Detailed explanations and demonstrations are provided in the course to help out the people who know absolutely nothing about rhythm.
For those of you who do have some experience, but need some guidance in playing things beyond the basics, this course has you covered as well! 8th note, 16th note, and triplet patterns are covered, which make up the majority of the music you listen to. Three variations that increase in difficulty are provided for every single example in the 4/4 time signatures (that's 50 unique rhythms, giving 150 unique chord progressions all suited for metal and rock guitar players).
Looking for something to really push yourself? As mentioned above, there is a difficult version of every rhythm example in the bulk of the course. In the "Beyond 4/4" section, the chord progressions get pretty challenging for most people. Learning all of the Etudes, and being able to play them without error will test nearly anyone's abilities!
Here are two of the Etudes to show you a fair amount of what this course covers. There are three more etudes in the full course!
