Music Theory 101:Ā 

Finally Understand the "Why" Behind Every Song You Play

ManyĀ guitarists spend years playing songs they love — without ever understandingĀ whyĀ those songs work.

They memorize chords. They follow tabs. They copy what they hear.

But the moment someone saysĀ "let's jam in a minor key"Ā orĀ "what key is this song in?" — they freeze.

That ends today.

Music Theory 101 is Lauren Bateman's focused, beginner-friendly course that gives you the foundational knowledge every guitarist needs — explained simply, without the overwhelm.

WHAT'S INCLUDED IN MUSIC THEORY 101?

This online course is designed specifically for beginner to intermediate guitarists who want to stop feeling confused and start feeling confident every time they pick up their instrument.

āœ… LESSONĀ 1 — WHY LEARN MUSIC THEORY?

When Lauren first started playing guitar, she never learned theory either. In this welcome lesson, she shares why understanding theory is a total game-changer — and why it's so much easier than you think.

āœ… LESSONĀ 2 — CONSONANCE & DISSONANCE IN MUSICĀ 

Why do some notes sound beautiful together while others sound jarring? This lesson unlocks one of music's most fundamental concepts and trains your ear to hear the difference.

āœ…Ā LESSON 3 — REVIEW OF THE MUSICAL ALPHABET

Before you can understand music, you need to know its language. This lesson covers the musical alphabet — the foundation everything else is built on.

āœ…Ā LESSON 4 — THEĀ MAJORĀ SCALE

The major scale is the backbone of Western music. Learn what it is, how it's built, and why it matters for every song you'll ever play.

āœ… Ā LESSONĀ 5 — WHATĀ AREĀ INTERVALS?

Intervals are the distances between notes — and they're the secret behind melodies, harmonies, and chord construction. Once you understand intervals, music starts to click.Ā 

Ā āœ… LESSONĀ 6 — THEĀ MINORĀ SCALE

Minor scales give music its emotional depth and darker feel. Learn how the minor scale is built and how it differs from the major scale.

āœ… LESSONĀ 7 — MAJOR KEY FORMULAĀ 

Unlock the formula that tells you exactly which chords belong in any major key. This is the lesson that makes chord progressions make sense.

āœ…Ā LESSONĀ 8 — MINORĀ KEYĀ FORMULA

The same concept, applied to minor keys. After this lesson, you'll know which chords naturally fit together in any minor key — no more guessing.
Ā 

āœ… LESSONĀ 9 —  RELATIVEĀ MAJORĀ ANDĀ MINOR

Here's one of music's coolest secrets: every major key has a "relative" minor key that shares the exact same notes. This lesson shows you how to find them and use them.
