### 🎸 Jammin' Essentials 2.0 – Newbies Edition 🎶

Never touched a guitar in a group setting? Maybe you’ve noodled around at home but feel totally unsure where to start? This one's for you.

This newbie-friendly jam night is all about making music feel possible — even if you’ve only been strumming in your bedroom or haven’t played in months (or ever).

With zero pressure, you'll learn how to:
🎵 Get comfortable holding and strumming your guitar
🎵 Play super simple chords that actually work in real songs
🎵 Follow along in group jams without feeling lost
🎵 Listen and respond to others in a chill setting
🎵 Grow your confidence by jamming with folks who are just like you

We’ll keep things slow, friendly, and focused on fun — because everyone starts somewhere, and we’re here to cheer you on every step of the way.

🧡 No experience required. Just bring your guitar and a willingness to try something new!
