Welcome to the start of your guitar journey
Want to have fun, build confidence and learn the guitar from a trained and experienced guitar professional?
Guitar lessons are perfect for ages 8 and up - beginner to advanced electric and acoustic guitarists who want to learn a structured but flexible, step by step way of learning the guitar in a fun, challenging and supportive environment.
We teach a modern rock and pop program with music from AC/DC, Guns n' Roses, Nirvana, White Stripes, Metallica, Deftones, Survivor, Deep Purple etc.

What our clients are saying after their lessons
Frequently Asked Questions
What to bring to your first lesson
Your guitar and tuner if you have one (please let us know if you don't have one)
Any music you've learnt previously
A list of songs you'd love to learn
An open mind
Do you have a free trial lesson?
No, we have a minimum commitment of 3 lessons.
This gives our students an outlook that prepares them for learning a musical instrument which on average would be around 3 years to progress beyond beginner level. Learning guitar is a marathon not a sprint.
It also gives us a chance to learn and understand more about our new students and adjust for different learning styles, lesson pacing and at times shifting them to another appropriate group.
Minimum commitment is 3 lessons $95 group / $170 individual.
Sign up to direct debit for a discount.
No lock in contract and you can cancel after 1 month or 3 lessons.

Get to know your interests
Provide you with your music workbook and how to use it
Fun and engaging musical games so you can get a feel for how I teach
Do I need to stay while my kid/s have their lesson
Nope - you can drop you kids and leave if you feel comfortable
A lot of parents come for the first lesson so they can get a feel for the lesson style, housekeeping and to make sure their kid/s feel comfortable and then drop and go from there.
