I have been playing guitar since 1993 when I received a guitar shortly after my 5th birthday. From day 1 I was obsessed. I was excelling through all school music and was constantly in bands.
By age 15 I was teaching out of a room in my house and my passion for music blossomed further. My love for teaching and nurturing players has been an amazing 15 year journey.
A few short years ago I started a YouTube channel called Chris Zoupa/Learn That Solo dedicated to learning rock and metal lead guitar as a way to put my knowledge to use, to keep my playing and ear training fresh and to pay homage to the guitar heroes that inspired me to be the player I am today.
I now have 100,000+ YouTube subscribers and teach over 80 guitar lessons (in person and Skype) a week with students from all over the world ranging from Australian (my home country) to America, Canada, Chile, Turkey, Mozambique, Ireland, Scotland, England and India to name a few.
I'm hoping that I can use Udemy to reach more inspiring students and aspiring players!
