Guitar lessons for ages 6 and up

Overview

Our experienced, friendly guitar instructors teach all styles from rock, blues, heavy metal, jazz, country to classical  on both electric and acoustic guitars. Beginners work on chords, simple songs and melodies, sight reading and theory. Each lesson will challenge you with a new technique or music theory and ends with something fun such as your favorite riff or song. We use a variety of guitar method books based on student needs and preferences and encourage students to bring smartphones or mp3's to their lessons to learn their favorite tunes.

What’s the #1 reason to study guitar at the Academy?

Our guitar instructors are warm and friendly, and get to know each student and parent on a personal level. We work with you to craft a lesson plan that fits your individual needs and the student's favorite type of music. Whether you're playing in local bands, a seven year old taking their first lesson, or a sixty year old returning to the guitar after many years, we’ll set goals to achieve your musical aspirations.
