Four chords and the campfire is yours.

Guitar Lessons

Acoustic or electric, strumming or fingerstyle — guitar gets you playing real songs fast, then takes you as deep as you want to go.

Who it’s for: Kids (age 7+), teens, and adults. A favourite for busy beginners and self-taught players who want to level up.

What you’ll learn

  • Open chords and clean chord changes
  • Strumming patterns and rhythm feel
  • Reading tab and basic notation
  • Fingerstyle, riffs, and lead lines
  • Songwriting and improvisation (going deep)

Common questions

  • More than okay — it’s our favourite place to start. Most of our students began as complete beginners. You’ll play something real in your very first lesson, and we move at exactly your pace. Progress at your pace is the whole idea.
  • For piano, guitar, and voice, online lessons work genuinely well with a phone or laptop and a decent connection — many students mix in-studio and online around their week. Violin and drums we recommend in-studio at least to start. Online lessons also cost a little less.
  • To start, no. The studio has pianos, a drum kit, and loaner guitars for lessons. For practice at home you’ll eventually want your own — we’ll recommend budget-friendly options, and for violin we partner with a local shop for rentals from about $25/month.
