Play The Guitar The Way You've Always Wanted To
- Are you new to playing guitar, but are having trouble getting started?
- Perhaps you can play already, but are bored, and want to add more to your guitar playing?
- Or maybe you're not bored, but are frustrated, and feel like you waste time practicing since you never make any progress?
- Perhaps you feel like you're at your wit's end, are exhausted and are about to give up...
If you answered “YES” to any of those questions,
then keep reading – I have the solution for you!
The first few months of playing is easily one of the most difficult and frustrating periods to go through as guitarist. It can be discouraging when you see other players - and perhaps even your friends - jamming and having a great time, when you can barely string together a few chords. I also know what it’s like to have moved past the beginner stage and still feel like there’s some invisible barrier holding back your guitar playing – you could be playing for 10 years, but it feels like you’ve been playing for 2.
Whether you’re just starting out, or are already experienced and can't seem to take your guitar playing to the next level, the solution is to learn from an experienced and knowledgeable guitar teacher who can dissect your playing, identify the biggest obstacles holding you back, and guide you to overcoming them so that you can truly play guitar with no limitations.
"Taking Lessons With Ryan Improved My Playing A Lot Faster Than When I was Trying To Do It On My Own."
"He is knowledgeable in all areas and he introduces concepts that I didn’t think of on my own, so it’s an overall improvement, very rapid improvement, and people in my life have noticed that as well, so it’s proof!
I mean if you really are interested in guitar, I think that you should definitely take lessons with Ryan. If you’re serious about guitar and you have goals that you want to reach, I think that Ryan will help you get there because he does listen to your particular needs and goals."

It Pays To Have A Guitar Teacher Who’s Been Where You Are Now
You get the crucial feedback on your own playing that the YouTube video just won’t provide. You will learn your favourite songs – just like you can with online TAB sites – but you’ll also learn and practice the concepts that CREATED those songs, so that you can learn them more quickly, as well as the next 5, 10, 20, 50 or 100 songs all made of the same ingredients.
Meanwhile, you’ll be treated as an individual with your own unique needs and goals, instead of being forced to learn the same things as everyone else (like what a book would do).
The right teacher will not only help you define those goals, but will go beyond that and lay out a clear roadmap for you to reach them. This roadmap can be tough to follow when you’re trying to teach yourself. The key to your success on the guitar involves the right plan, and that plan needs to be clear enough for any ordinary person to follow.
"I Just Feel Like I have More Confidence And
Am Picking Up The Guitar And Enjoy Playing It"
Am Picking Up The Guitar And Enjoy Playing It"
"Ryan, first of all, is VERY entertaining, and he’s very knowledgeable, and he’s got a LOT of patience! So he’s really good in that aspect. You can learn a lot from him.
I just feel like I have more confidence and am picking up the guitar and enjoy playing it, whereas before I was just getting frustrated and realizing that, you know, I wasn’t really getting anywhere. But now, I feel like I am! I’m looking forward to doing another year, for sure!"

Hi, I'm Ryan Mueller. I Get How You Feel About Your Guitar Playing Right Now, Because I've Been There Before.
I was self-taught for over 10 years and went through way too much trial and error along the way. It took me a long time to get to the level of playing that I’ve reached today, and the cold hard truth is that if I just took lessons from my teacher when I first discovered him, I would have reached this level of playing years ago.
Don't make the same mistake I did. Don't get aggravated to the point of throwing your guitar pick across the room. The right approach to learning guitar can shave off years of frustration, without having to make compromises in your playing. You deserve to play guitar the way you want to, and I want to help you do that in the shortest time possible. Let me show you how.
"Ryan Made Me Fall In Love With Guitar Again"
"Before taking lessons with him, I had spent close to a year trying to teach myself, and I came to him extremely frustrated with how little progress I had made.
Ryan reignited my motivation! His patience, love of what he does, and complete kick-ass attitude made coming to class so, so enjoyable.
I can't thank Ryan enough for his great teachings in helping me become a better guitar player each day."
– Alannah Della Vedova, Etobicoke Student

"In fact not only has it improved over the 10-month period, it actually improves weekly! Every time I play, I feel more confident in myself, I pick up another small thing to learn about guitar, and tools and ideas on how to play, so I feel improvement just about every time now I practice and every time I play.
It’s probably the most valuable thing I’ve done in the past 10 months. So I really enjoy them, and I’ve really improved, and I just love playing my guitar!"

"He’s dedicated to making sure classes are prepared, he’s dedicated to his profession, I know he goes to training courses and wants to be a professional at what he does, and that shows in his lessons and what he gives to his students.
I was learning bad habits, so when I came to Ryan, he readjusted me, and he put me on the right path, so I’m feeling confident! In fact recently, I played at home, but in front of some friends and I felt good about it, so he’s helping me most definitely!"
