Guitar and Bass Guitar

Our guitar lessons include acoustic, electric and bass guitar. We have an excellent guitar teaching staff and teach guitar lessons in many styles including rock to jazz, classical, pop, Spanish and chord melody. Many of our teachers actively perform in bands. Our guitar teachers have college or university training so they know how to teach the proper theory and technique in all popular styles. Guitar lessons at our school are enhanced by the opportunity of learning how to jam with other musicians in a rock band/ensemble setting, or how to perform solo in one of our recitals. No matter what type of guitar lessons you are interested in, we have the teachers to help you. Typically a student would be 8 years old before starting guitar lessons, due to their hand size, but some younger students start with a junior sized guitar. Our private guitar lessons are one-on-one instruction and lesson lengths are 30 minutes or 1 hour.


Our group guitar lessons are meant for students who are motivated by, or just enjoy working as part of a team. The social interaction helps these students stay motivated and challenged in a supportive, friendly environment. Each class is a 45 minute session and is limited to just 8 students per class. The class room is set up as a guitar workshop with each student bringing his or her own guitar to the class each week. Students can choose either acoustic or electric guitars for their class. Students will either progress into the next group level or into private lessons. These classes are meant for beginner level students.
Group guitar classes are offered for students ages 8-12 and ages 13 plus.
