Service Description
If you’ve been playing guitar for a bit and have the basics down, now it’s time to take it to the next level! We’ll tackle barre chords and other fun chord shapes that go beyond your basics, along with some shreddy riffs and solos. We’ll focus on technique: doing more than just hitting the right notes, doing it with style and expression. You’ll also do some mini performances for the group to help build your confidence playing in front of an audience! Taught by punk powerhouse Erin Malone, this class prioritizes challenging yourself in a safe space, having fun and realizing that you CAN be a badass shredder! Great for: Women and non-binary adults 21+ in Austin who are looking for inclusive electric guitar lessons in a radically supportive, non-intimidating music community. Punk, personal, and pressure-free - zero experience required! Gear: 🎸 Must have access to an electric guitar (with strap), picks, tuner, cable for amp, and a pen/pencil and notebook to take notes and practice on outside of class. Small portable amps are welcome in class if you'd like to bring your own! Please reach out to Rock n Roll Rentals for affordable rental gear, and feel free to email us at femmerockatx@gmail.com if you need help. About the Instructor: Erin Malone is a multi instrumentalist & vocalist with over 25 years of playing & performing experience as well as 15 years of teaching experience.

She currently plays guitar in It Could Be Worse (midwest emo/skramz from Austin), has a solo project under her name (post-rock/midwest emo/math rock), and previously played guitar in Greybloom (post-hardcore from Dallas).

Cancellation Policy
RESCHEDULING / CANCELLATION / NO-SHOW POLICIES: ALL CLASSES: - If you cancel your Femme Rock enrollment (includes group instrument classes, band classes, Bring Your Own Band, and long-term bookings of private lessons) at least two weeks before the start of your first class, we will issue you a class credit to use on a different Femme Rock class or workshop of the same value. If you cancel on or after that date, there is no refund. We encourage students to find someone to "sub-in" and cover your spot for you. - Additionally, Femme Rock has the right to cancel group or band classes if not enough students sign up. Band classes require a minimum of 4 participants, and group instrument classes require a minimum of 3 participants. If your class is canceled before the session, we will issue you a class credit to use on a different Femme Rock class or workshop of the same value. BAND CLASSES & BYOB: - If you cannot show up to class, you will have to give your bandmates a 7 day notice. - If you are sick, please let us know 3 hours before class. - Bands are allowed 1 free reschedule, any others past that will be charged $50 an hour (split between your bandmates). - If you do not show up for your first 3 classes, you will be replaced with a “fill in” with no refund or class credit. PRIVATE LESSONS: - All private lesson single or 4-pack must be completed within the originally set timeframe and end date (lessons are scheduled for either every week or every other week). We understand that unexpected life events occur, and allow up to two lesson reschedules during the private lesson pack timeframe. - To keep our scheduling fair and consistent for both students and instructors, each 4-pack of private lessons includes up to two reschedules with at least 48 hours’ notice. - If a lesson is canceled with less than 48 hours’ notice, if more than two reschedules are requested, or if a student does not show up, that lesson is not refundable and cannot be rescheduled. **These policies aren’t meant to scare anybody but instead, to help establish respect and accountability with your band and/or instructors. We appreciate your understanding as we uphold this policy to support our instructors’ time and our community’s overall flow.
