- Fun and instantly usable
- No more cumbersome spot placing of notes
- Rhythm reading and pitch reading made easy
- Feel the notes, no need to constantly look at the fretboard
Discover a revolutionary approach to mastering music reading, where theory and fretboard knowledge seamlessly converge. Ari’s reading system is intuitive, fast and complete.
This system aligns perfectly with Ari and Wolf’s other courses and systems, be it the Rhythm Matrix or the Pattern System. All systems go hand in hand and reinforce each other.
This reading method will build your confidence and skills to navigate the fretboard with ease. Whether you’re aiming to enhance your reading fluency or prepare you for the Pattern System, this approach sets you up for smooth, musical playing across the fingerboard.
No need to have mastered the theory and no need to have mastered the pattern system or rhythm matrix.
All these systems reinforce each other. Suitable for low intermediate and up. For this class, you need to know your intervals, that’s it!
Ari's Reading System
👎 No more “translating notes into note names” and then trying to “find the note name on the fretboard” – which is a terribly round-about way to learn reading.
👍 Instead, use the shape-based theory knowledge you gleaned from Ari’s Theory teachings and put them into action!
🤩 Ari’s innovative system transforms the reading process into an intuitive and enjoyable experience, allowing you to read fluently without constantly glancing at the fretboard.
By integrating reading directly with your understanding of the fretboard, this method makes reading music feel natural and effortless and achieves more than just reading proficiency: it reinforces fretboard knowledge and the theory you are learning.
