Littleton Guitar School - Littleton, Colorado

I took guitar lessons from Ken for over three years. He combines experience from a lifetime of playing and performing guitar, with a teaching style that makes learning fun. When I look back over how much he has taught me, I'm amazed. I can play with more experienced guitarists and understand what they're talking about, what they're doing, and how I can contribute musically. The confidence and knowledge I've gained are a direct result of studying with Ken. I'm grateful that I took that first step three years ago and gave him a call. It's easily one of the best decisions I ever made.

I’ve played guitar on and off for quite some time. I am one year into classes at Littleton Guitar School. In the past, at times playing, I have seen musical dots. But not until I started going to Littleton Guitar School, did I start connecting those dots. And thanks to Ken, once that happened, I am playing with new found knowledge and enthusiasm.

Ken will challenge you in a positive and motivating way to learn more.

If you want to improve your guitar playing and your overall music knowledge, check out Ken at Littleton Guitar School.

I've been attending lessons at Littleton Guitar School for over two years now, and it has been a very meaningful experience. Ken is a very dedicated teacher and is also a professional musician himself, so he has experience as an artist! He designs lessons in way that can reach learners where they are in their playing while also providing a jam-like space and experience. The lessons are a wonderful and balanced mix of both learning and playing! When I started taking lessons, I didn't really know how to play guitar at all. Two years in, I have a firmer grasp of all types of chords, different rhythms and styles, and which chords sound good together. Ken has been very encouraging through the whole journey while also giving pointed, sincere feedback that can be integrated in playing, soloing, and song writing. I highly recommend this place to anyone, whether you're trying to make a career for yourself or if you want a setting to jam in with good people once a week. Ken teaches in a very intentional way and he holds a very communal space in which to experience music!

I came on board after taking years of guitar lessons from someone else. I understood scales but lacked the understanding how to apply the knowledge. A year later, I understand so much more and Ken engages you to apply your knowledge.
He builds on what you enjoy playing. He builds on your confidence to play and make mistakes. He encourages you to listen to what you are playing and slow down to feel your phrasing.
Being able to take advantage of thee one hour lessons per week, hang on because you will find yourself improving each week. That is the enjoyment I lacked for many years.
Ken shares his knowledge, enthusiasm, and determination directly with you. Ken has such a unique approach to teaching. After your first lesson you will see that playing music is fun and not chore. The camaraderie is awesome and priceless.

I've been playing guitar for 50 yrs, & had lost my desire & gotten stagnant. After a year w/Ken, I have very renewed enthusiasm & desire to grow in my playing again. His methods will further your abilities, regardless of your level of skill. Ken's methodical approach has taught me so many new things/techniques, etc. I never imagined was possible.
I'm now eager to pick up my guitar every day, & jam with my buddies again!
Give Ken a chance to help you out. I'm sure you'll be pleased!
Sincerely,

I have been carrying a guitar around with me for a large part of my life, half-heartedly moving from one self-instruction program to another…with no real results. However, since I have been taking lessons from Ken for the last 18 months my technique, playing ability and understanding of music construct has accelerated…and in a way that is fun and cool.

Ken focuses on teaching me the skills to play the kind of music I want to play, while building a fundamental understanding of what goes into the construct of music. His instruction methods allow you to move from understanding and building playing technique for rhythms to laying down bass lines to free-form solo. Ken adapts his teaching to the progress of my playing and continuously challenges me to expand my playing as my skills progress. I have gained so much confidence in my playing from Ken…to step out from “playing in the closet” to feeling good about playing for others.

Ken is passionate about guitar and music and teaching guitar to his students. He makes learning guitar fun…I find myself always excited after a lesson to get home and practice. He offers a great proprietary website resources, regular jam session opportunities, personalized response to questions between lessons, and focused seminars.

I wholeheartedly recommend Ken if you are looking to pick-up the guitar for the first time or want to significantly advance your skills and confidence in playing the guitar.

I have been going to Ken's guitar classes for approximately a year. Ken's approach to teaching the guitar has helped me to quickly learn the fret board, gain more feel in my playing, and progress in my ability and knowledge in a "user friendly" manner. I suggest you give him a try.

I have been taking lessons with Ken K at Littleton Guitar School for 10 months. I have had a guitar for almost 40 years. About 2 years ago I finally decided to play it. I tried youtube videos and made some progress. After a year I got lessons with a different instructor. After a monthof those lessons, I realized I really wanted to learn guitar, and I needed to find an instructor who would help me. A friend turned me on to Ken. After our intiial interview I knew Ken could help me. I have not been disappointed. His lessons help me learn and love the guitar. He has taught me some cool songs, but Ken's genius lies in the fact he teaches you "how to play the guitar" not "how to play songs". I am amazed at the depth of knowledge and skill Ken is able to share. I have grown a lot as a guitar player. I enjoy playing for my family and friends and at jams that Ken has organized.
Do yourself a favor; ditch Marty and the youtube videos and learn from Ken. You won't regret it!
