Kids & Teens

Kids Just Want To Have Fun

These are definitely some of our most popuar classes. Kids have fun as they learn to play some of their favourite songs. Instead of forcing kids to play tedious exercises and songs they find uninspiring, we encourage and excite them by teaching the basics of chords, strumming, and reading tablature.

When it comes to playing guitar, desire, is the most important factor for a childs sucess . Our goal is to instill this love for the instrument, and the rest is childs play.

We supply guitars in class. (No guitar lugging necessary).
