Paul Greig

Session Musician & Performer

Welcome to Kids Guitar Dojo! I'm Paul Greig, a guitarist with over 20 years of teaching experience. My musical journey began in Australia’s Country Music Capital, where I started playing in bands at the age of 17. This early start set the stage for a diverse and enriching career. I had the privilege of studying guitar at Southern Cross University, where I learned from legendary musicians like Jeff "Skunk" Baxter of Steely Dan and The Doobie Brothers. Along the way I became a prize winner in The John Lennon Songwriting Competition, worked as a session guitarist, songwriter, and producer, and founded Learn Guitar Cafe. Now, I’m thrilled to bring all that experience to Kids Guitar Dojo, where our mission is to inspire the next generation of young guitarists.

History

The Unique Story Behind Kid's Guitar Dojo

As a seasoned guitar teacher with over a decade of experience teaching kids the guitar I had seen all the available teaching resources. When my own kids showed an early interest in playing the guitar I realised that the existing resources to guide their learning were outdated and uninspiring. I knew I could come up with a better concept and I remembered something I saw over 10 years ago. 

One day, while teaching at a Sydney music studio, I noticed a violin instructor placing stickers coloured stickers on the violin to help her young students navigate their instruments. A lightbulb went off. Could there be a better, more engaging way to teach guitar to kids? I began experimenting with new methods tailored specifically for young learners and decided to make a program like nothing else on the market.

Teaching a 5-year-old requires more than just knowledge; it demands a unique approach that blends fun with fundamentals. I discovered that capturing a child’s attention and making learning exciting is a delicate art. Sure Kids can go to weekly lessons but it’s what happens in the practice space at home that makes a difference. Determined to create a better learning experience, I embarked on a mission to revolutionise guitar education for kids. This journey led to the birth of Kids Guitar Dojo. What started as a personal quest has now grown into a vibrant community where over 2,000 young musicians thrive. We understand the joy and challenges of nurturing budding talent and are committed to making the learning process as delightful as it is effective.

Kids Guitar Dojo is not just an online platform; it’s a musical adventure designed specifically for children aged 5 to 10 years of age. We offer a comprehensive curriculum that fosters creativity, cognitive development, and a lifelong passion for music. 

Our engaging instructional videos, interactive tutorials, backing tracks and fun quizzes are crafted specifically for kids. With Kids Guitar Dojo, children embark on a journey that cultivates their skills, nurtures their creativity, and instills a lifelong love for playing the guitar. 

I’m a parent myself

Having two young children of my own I soon realised there was a gap in the market for a website purely aimed at young beginners. In 2017 I decided to gather up my 30 yrs of teaching and playing experience  and build an online curriculum for kids guitar lessons in the online space and started to work on Kids Guitar Dojo.
I was able to test refine ideas and concepts to further enhance the learning experience with my own kids and students coming for private lessons.

Fun is at the centre of success

While building the platform for KGD I was studying gamification under the guiding hand of Yukai Chou, the worlds leading authority on gamification. I soon realised that his concepts could be incorporated into my online platform and help motivate and encourage students to practice. Practice became fun and was no longer a chore – kids and parents were seeing results and felt great about their achieveme
