Have you always wanted to learn guitar but didn’t know where to start?
Join our beginner-friendly acoustic guitar workshop designed for adults and young people with little or no previous experience.
Led by bilingual Latin American musician Chino, these weekly classes focus primarily on Spanish-speaking participants while remaining accessible to English speakers who would like to learn in a multicultural environment.
What makes this class unique is its focus on Latin American music and culture. While many beginner guitar classes in Australia focus on rock, pop, or artists such as AC/DC, this workshop introduces students to rhythms, techniques, and musical traditions from across Latin America.
Students will not only learn guitar fundamentals but will also have the opportunity to experience Spanish in a practical and social setting. For many participants, the class becomes a fun way to maintain, improve, or immerse themselves in the Spanish language while learning a new skill.
What you’ll learn:
  • Basic guitar chords
  • Strumming and rhythm techniques
  • Latin American rhythms and musical styles
  • Simple songs and chord progressions
  • Finger placement and posture
  • Practice techniques for beginners
Language:
  • Classes are delivered primarily in Spanish
  • English support is available when required
This is a hands-on, practical class focused on learning by doing. Students will have the opportunity to play together, ask questions, and progress at their own pace in a friendly and supportive community environment. Flexible enrolment options are available. Students are welcome to attend a single class to experience the program before deciding whether they would like to continue. Ongoing students may choose to enrol in the discounted six-class program for a more structured learning experience.

My Story
I’m Rosa Cienfuegos, a Mexican cultural producer, author, educator and curator of Latin American cultural experiences based in Sydney.
For more than 15 years, I have created workshops, community events, cultural programs and creative experiences that bring people together through food, music, storytelling, art and shared traditions.
While many people first discovered my work through Mexican cuisine and my internationally published cookbooks, my passion has always been creating opportunities for people to learn, connect and experience culture in meaningful and memorable ways.
Today, I curate and deliver a diverse range of workshops and experiences led by artists, musicians, educators, makers, cooks and cultural practitioners from across Latin America and Australia’s multicultural communities.
Our experiences include cooking classes, music and guitar workshops, arts and crafts, wellbeing sessions, cultural storytelling, creative workshops and community learning experiences designed to inspire curiosity, creativity and connection.
I believe cultural experiences should be welcoming, accessible and joyful. Whether you’re learning a traditional recipe, exploring a new creative skill, discovering a cultural tradition or simply meeting new people, every workshop is an opportunity to connect through shared experiences.
I look forward to welcoming you to one of our classes and helping you discover the richness, creativity and diversity of Latin American culture.
