Common Questions
Do I have to play in front of anyone?
No. You enter muted. You stay muted. Only you can hear yourself.
“🔥Hot Seats” and “🎬 Take 2s” are optional – but highly recommended.
What if I can't make the live sessions?
Every session is recorded. You can practice on your own schedule.
Many members primarily use the archive and get tremendous value from it. With 450+ past sessions, there’s always something focused and ready to work on.
Can I stay anonymous?
If you prefer to stay low-profile, that’s completely fine. You can use a nickname (Jamerson Acolyte, Bass Bear… I’ve seen it all) and keep your camera angled on your bass — or off entirely.
You’re here to practice, not to perform.
Is this for advanced players?
Lower-intermediate and up. If you can operate the bass and have basic theory like intervals down, you’re ready.
The community is supportive and the sessions are as fun as they are focused.
Plus, every drill comes with different variations, so whether you’re more on the basic side of things or advanced, you will be appropriately challenged.
Our most advanced sessions are Open Pattern Practice.

I already know what to practice. Do I need this?
Knowing what to practice isn’t the same as practicing it effectively.
This isn’t just accountability.
It’s structured, high-yield practice. I show you exactly how to work on the right things so they translate directly into your playing.
Members often describe the sessions as “fun and effective” — because we focus on exercises that move the needle, while keeping the energy light, direct, and musical.

What's the vibe like?
Supportive, focused, and honestly pretty fun. We keep it real!
We take playing seriously but we don’t take ourselves too seriously.
