About Miago

Everyone sells information but there is no structure to nurture merit, accountability & growth within a thriving guitar community. Miago is not another digital course you bought on sale and didn’t complete. It is a platform to support, encourage and inspire your music journey on the guitar through its myriad facets; mechanically, intellectually and psychologically. Many of us may have some solid ideas about how to improve specific skills on the guitar but the ‘what‘ alone will not suffice. We need the ‘how’.

That’s why Miago was created.

Come in, explore, enjoy, learn, grow, and most of all, have fun!

ALL ACCESS PROGRAMME

One Programme.

Many Benefits.

A path to Mastery.

World class tuition that has a high level of academic rigour and yet is street smart in its practical approach. Our courses are known to ‘spoon-feed’ very digestible bits of information in a very clear and coherent manner that’s both fun & instructive.

Committed to your progress.

We see you regularly in our live events (at least twice a month) and we do the work together. Many sell information, few facilitate and care about your musical progress as we do.

Variety is the spice of life.

Very diverse stylistic musical aesthetic. Baroque, Classical, Romantic, Impressionistic, 20th century, Blues, Folk, Jazz, Funk, Rock, Pop, Fusion, Neo soul (Church Quartet sound), Brazilian, Carnatic Indian classical, “world” folklore music and more.

Zoom In, Zoom Out.

We attend to both the micro and the macro – finely attuned details for daily practice along with overarching support for dealing with musical hurdles along the way.

One price, unlimited access.

Everything covered in a single, low monthly price.
5 courses, 10 hours of detailed instruction.
Growing library with new content added every single week.
Full tracks with detailed explanations added every month.
Includes everything: courses, pocket music, shorts, focused practice routines and members-only webinars.

All of our courses use SoundSlice notation and tablature throughout.

POCKET MUSIC

POCKET MUSIC

Street Smart Play

your learning, your way

We take pride in being “street smart” with our approach towards training. Apart from deep dives into theory and advanced liner playing, the key role of the guitar is to play rhythm (harmony with a good time feel). Our Silver and All Access Programmes include access to Pocket Music, which will show you how to distinguish yourself from other guitarists by making the singer shine. This skill translates directly into more demand, more gigs, and more ka-ching in your pocket!!!

More about Pocket Music

Access to the Pocket Music course, and the entire Pocket Music Library, is included for free as part of the Miago Silver and All Access Programmes. We’re releasing a new track every week, and we aim to get to at least 100 tracks.
