Acoustic, Electric, Classical & Bass
Whether you’re picking up the guitar for the first time or looking to refine your technique, private lessons offer a supportive space to grow confidently as a musician. With a focus on acoustic, electric and classical guitar, sessions are tailored to your goals, helping you develop strong fundamentals, express your style and enjoy the process of playing.
Lessons are open to all levels — from beginner to advanced — and cover a wide range of genres including:
• Classical & Fingerstyle
• Pop & Contemporary
• Rock & Alternative
• Funk & Soul
• Reggae & Groove-based styles
You’ll learn practical skills that build musicianship and creativity, such as:
• Chords, scales and fretboard understanding
• Rhythm, timing and strumming techniques
• Fingerpicking, articulation & tone shaping
• Reading music and/or TAB (depending on preference)
• Song learning, improvisation & composition
Each lesson is shaped around what inspires you — whether you want to accompany yourself while singing, play classical pieces with finesse, improvise freely, or write songs of your own. We work with real music, real techniques, and real creative progression.
Develop your sound. Build your skills. Enjoy the guitar in a way that feels personal, rewarding and fun.
