We're very excited to present a Beginner's guide to Jam Sessions!

This class is designed to give you confidence in jam sessions of all kinds. We’ll talk about what to expect at a jam, discuss common jam session etiquette, and learn a few easy jam-friendly tunes. Bring your instrument and - if it helps you learn - a recording device (cellphone) or a notebook and pencil.

Dates: Saturday May 2nd, 9th, 16th from 10-11am

Location: St. Louis String Collective; 3530 Greenwood Blvd

We will be filming each class and the videos will be made available to participants at the end of the session.
