    = TAPPING WORKOUT PHILOSOPHY Ive always believed that everyone has the ability 0 dis- cover and cultivate his or her ‘own unique voice on an instr ‘ment; doing o requires thatone listen to one's inner voice and then find the courage to express it. To that end, the Workout is not meant to ster students into sounding like someone else but to equip them ‘with some ofthe tools that are essential to Aiscovering their own voce, while simula ‘ously helping them become thoroughly bal- ‘anced musical beings. {should note that this program is geared for people that love the challenge ofa dsci- plinedeurricukum and tuly want vo master the instrument.

Music theories 8. Jamming Inaddition, I've arranged these categories int three 10-hour-per day sessions. Bea in sind thatthe amount of time and focus you ‘pt into the program will be diecly reflected inyour playing feel these eategores provide a good mix ‘ofthe various elements tha go ino becoming thoroughly rounded musician, Note, howe er, that [will only be outlining concepts here; ies up to you to research and discover more on your own, There ae pleny of instructional books, CDs and DVDs on the market, and ‘many schools offer home: study courses that teach you all types of finger exercises, chords, scales, theory and so on. In addition, guitar related information is plentiful on the inter- net. Ofcourse, lencourage you to explore oth- cercategores, ideas and concepts not ‘mentioned here. That's one ofthe grea things about playing the guitar—there are essentially no rules, and a person's ably to be unique is ‘only limite by theic courage and imagination. ‘Although the Workout is geared toward a rock syle of playing, you may want to subst rue various elements that are more appropri ate for the syle of music you're interested in. Ifyou decide you don’t want learn conven: ‘ional things, you may choose wo replace one ‘or more of these categories with things that youre more comfortable with.
