Whether you have always wanted to learn how to play the guitar or are an experienced musician looking to improve your skills, our guitar classes can help you achieve your musical goals. At our music school, we offer both private and group guitar lessons for both electric and acoustic guitars, using the Yamaha Guitar Encounters course and Rockschool courses, with experienced guitar teachers who can help you develop your technique, music theory knowledge, aural perception, and sight-reading skills.
Our guitar lessons typically start from 7 years old and up, but if you have a keen guitarist in the making that is younger than 7 we would highly recommend they begin their musical journey studying Ukulele using Vuzo’s excellent Beginner Ukulele Course.
The Yamaha Guitar Encounters course is a fantastic way for you or your child to begin your musical journey and are the perfect guitar lessons for beginners. It is regarded as one of the best and most comprehensive courses on how to learn the guitar, because it covers a wide range of genres like Jazz, Funk, and Rock, offering real songs that make learning more fun and enjoyable. In book 1 alone you will learn classics such as:
- Guns ‘N’ Roses – Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door
- Bon Jovi – Livin’ On A Prayer
- Metallica – Sad But True
- Chuck Berry – Johnny B. Goode
Our guitar beginner guitar lessons emphasise the development of essential guitar skills, including technique, music theory knowledge, aural perception, and the ability to read both TAB and standard notation. The course uses purpose-written songs and exercise that are designed to help students improve their musical abilities while also broadening their understanding of guitar playing.
We understand that learners have different goals when it comes to learning how to play the guitar. Some may want to pursue grades and certifications, while others may want to learn purely for fun and enjoyment. Whatever your goals may be, our guitar lessons can cater to your needs and help you achieve your desired level of proficiency.
For beginners who have no prior experience with the guitar, our group classes can be a great place to start. The Yamaha Guitar Encounters course is specifically designed for beginners and offers a comprehensive and well-structured curriculum that covers the basics of guitar playing. Students can learn how to hold the guitar, how to fingerpick or strum the strings, how to read TAB and standard notation, and how to play a variety of musical genres.
Intermediate and advanced students can also benefit greatly from our classes. Our guitar tutors offer customised private lessons that cater to each student’s unique goals and skill level. Our experienced guitar teachers will work with you to identify areas where you need improvement, develop your technique and playing style, and expand your repertoire. Whether you’re looking for electric guitar lessons or acoustic guitar lessons, we can help.
