How Often Should I Have Guitar Lessons?

For most students, weekly guitar lessons offer the best balance between professional guidance and independent practice.

We offer:

• 30-minute lessons – ideal for younger students or focused sessions
• 60-minute lessons – ideal for adults and students wanting more comprehensive tuition
• Fortnightly lessons – a flexible option for busy schedules

For consistent progress, we generally recommend around 15–20 minutes of practice each day. Your teacher can help you establish a realistic practice routine that fits around your life.

Do I Need My Own Guitar?

You don’t need to bring a guitar to your initial studio trial lesson. A guitar can be provided for your first session.

For continued progress, however, you’ll need access to an instrument at home. If you’re buying your first guitar, we’re happy to recommend suitable options based on your budget, playing style and hand size.

What Age Can Children Start Guitar Lessons?

We welcome children from age 6 onwards.

At this age, many children have developed the coordination and dexterity needed to begin learning basic guitar techniques. However, every child is different, so lessons are adapted to their individual development, concentration and musical interests.

What Styles of Guitar Can I Learn?

Our guitar tuition covers a broad range of musical styles, including:

Acoustic · Electric · Classical · Rock · Blues · Pop · Folk · Jazz

You don’t have to choose just one. Lessons can combine different styles and techniques depending on the music you enjoy and the skills you want to develop.
