No credit card required. Just your guitar and a few minutes a day.

Sound familiar?

You hear a melody in your head. You know exactly what you want to play — the phrasing, the feel, the vibe.

But when you reach for it on the neck... it's gone.

There's a delay between your ear and your fingers. You end up guessing. Hunting. Playing something "close enough" that doesn't sound like what you heard.

That's not a talent problem. It's a connection problem.

The 3 traps keeping you stuck

Trap #1: Always rhythm. Never the lead.

You can lock down the groove for everyone else. But when it's your turn to solo, you freeze — or play something mechanical.

Trap #2: You hear it, but your hands don't listen.

The idea is in your head. The melody is there. But your fingers can't find it fast enough — so it disappears.

Trap #3: You know theory, but can't make it musical.

Modes, arpeggios, scales — you've studied them all. But when it's time to improvise, none of it comes together.

What if your ear could lead?

In this challenge, you'll learn the "Exercise of Life" — a simple drill that builds the connection between what you hear and what you play.

The Method
Listen Sing Find Connect
2–4 minutes a day. That's all it takes.

No music reading. No complex theory. Just a daily practice that rewires how your hands respond to your ears.

What you'll learn

1

The key center anchor

Learn to hear notes in relationship — not isolation. This is the foundation of everything.

2

The four chord colors

Major, minor, diminished, augmented — learn to recognize them instantly by sound.

3

Intervals: the building blocks

Understand the distances between notes so you can hear melodies before you play them.

4

Comparing intervals

Stop guessing. Start knowing. Learn to distinguish sounds that trip up most players.

5

Putting it together

Apply what you've learned to a real melody. See how everything connects.

Who's teaching this?

I spent 8 years studying guitar at Tel Aviv University and The New School in New York. Most of that time, ear training, theory, and technique were taught separately — hoping they'd merge someday.

They never did. Until I found the method you'll learn in this challenge.

I've now taught over 1,000 guitarists — from bedroom players to touring pros — how to close the gap between what they hear and what they play.
