The UGtrA Zone

“We are a community of Underground Guitar Artists (UGtrA).

Internet is an endless sea of unstructured & random guitar tutorials.

Every day guitarists spend more time searching for the next “magic” exercise than actually improving their playing.

Soon they get stuck, keep playing the same things over and over and can’t escape from that vicious circle.

There is a specific reason for that and thankfully there is a solution too!

We’re gonna unpack everything in detail here, in the UGtra.Zone!

[The Problem]

A huge number of beginner/intermediate guitarists waste countless hours online every day, searching for the next "magic" exercise that will help them improve their playing and unlock their creativity...

If you are a beginner/intermediate guitarist, don’t make the same mistake and spend your time on random and unstructured tutorials online ( such as on Youtube).

The time flies, and there’s nothing more frustrating than keep returning back to square one, where you don’t know how to unlock the fretboard, play your favourite songs or solo across the neck…

I know how it is…

I used to hit the same wall again and again for years, without making any progress.

But some years later I came up with an unexpecting solution…

All started with a question:

Why don’t I use my architectural background to approach and design a guitar practicing [that years later became a learning] program?!

At first, there were some simple thoughts and concepts that little by little converted to basic methods.

But soon I started seeing amazing results and before even noticing it, I ended up a professional guitarist [even if I had limited practice time as I was studying architecture at the same time].

This is when I started realising the power of this approach and organised all these thoughts, concepts and methods into simple diagrams (see below) and other learning materials, designing my “architectonic” A-Z guitar program… The UGtrA Method!

I won’t get any deeper into the details of The UGtrA Method [you can find everything in my free email training series below], but what I’m gonna do right now is to unpack the basic concept of my teaching approach – which is…

[The Solution]

The UGtrA Method

The Architectonic Way of Learning Guitar!

The UGtrA method is not just another piece of a puzzle, but it’s the puzzle itself regarding your guitar learning journey.

It’s the most architectonically designed method 🙂

It has anything you need to improve in all areas.

It’s consisted of 9 steps that guide you from point A (where you are right now) to point B (your music goals).

It’s designed to work as a systemwith easy-to-follow sub-methods that guide you in achieving expressional and creative freedom through small wins (see below)

Never be lost again searching the web for what to practice next or for the “magic” exercise that will change your playing and help you improve faster.

Each course, training series, seminars, article, everything I publish finds a strategic place inside this system and all-together work to create results bigger than an individual course could ever create [see my favourite learning tool – the diagrams!]

Complete all the 9 steps and express yourself playing the guitar like speaking your native language!

Take a look at the diagram below and see how it works:

The 9 steps in "One-Page" Diagrams​

For every step of The UGtrA Method, there is a carefully designed & easy-to-follow sub-method, represented by a “one-page” diagram.

All diagrams (methods) are interconnected and work together as a system.

Phase 1: Foundations

Step 1

Fretboard Knowledge

Step 2

Lead Guitar

Step 3

Rhythm Guitar

Phase 2: Musicality

Step 4

Theory/Harmony

Step 5

Music Reading

Step 6

Ear Training

Phase 3: Career

Step 7

Rockstar’s Lifestyle

Step 8

Music Managers’ Secrets

Step 9

Any course, training, article, anything I publish has a strategic place in that system.

That way, you can always rest assured that if you follow or practice any learning material of the UGtrA program, you’re always moving towards point B (your music goals)!

How to practice the UGtrA Method

The magic of the UGtrA Method lies in its design.

All the parts work together in a dynamic way.

So, there are two ways to start practicing it:
