Online guitar gym

Show up.
Do your reps.

Most guitar lessons stop when the call ends. Coach Shred coaches the part that actually makes you better: practice. Get a daily plan, quick check-ins with a real coach, and private lessons when you want them.

Lessons don't make you better. Reps do.

A teacher can show you what to fix in ten minutes. Then you go home, and that's where most players fall off. Coach Shred works like a gym: a plan for every day, a coach who checks your form, and progress you can see.

FAQ

Who is Coach Shred for?

Kids, teens and adults, from first chords to advanced shred. If you're under 18, a parent or guardian enrolls you.

What do I need?

Your guitar (or bass), a phone, tablet or computer with a camera, and a decent internet connection. Lessons and live check-ins happen in your coach's online room. There's nothing to install.

How do check-ins work?

Members get 4 a month. Pick a live call of up to 15 minutes, or send a short clip of what you're working on and get a video reply from your coach. Either way, you leave knowing exactly what to fix next.

Is the member portal ready?

We're opening it to founding members now. Until every feature is live, your practice plans and check-ins come straight from your coach.

Membership or private lessons?

If you want structure every day and a coach checking your work, go membership. If you want a full lesson every week, go private lessons. You can do both, and switch anytime.

What if I need to cancel a lesson?

Cancel or reschedule at least 24 hours ahead at no charge. Later than that, the lesson counts as missed. Monthly plans are billed on the 1st.
