- Lessons are on an individual basis
- The lessons are against the background of the classical teaching method, adjusting according to the style the student prefers.
- Most of our students take lessons for their own enjoyment, but can be enrolled for exams at UNISA, Royal Schools or Trinity College, should they so wish.
- Quarterly group classes for the different age groups are held, introducing the students to experience playing for an audience (thus developing self confidence)
Guitar / Bass guitar / Banjo lessons
- Lessons are either on a one on one basis or in small groups (maximum 2 students)
- Our students are introduced to reading music (very important), playing chords and the various styles of playing.
- Quarterly group classes are held for the students to build their self confidence in playing with other musicians or standalone performances.
Theory is an integral part of the lessons
