About

Real Playing Experience.
No Jargon.

I've played guitar in church for years — I know how chords, progressions, and timing actually work in real music. I'm not a music theory professor. I'm someone who plays, and I'll teach you to play too. Fast.

Questions?

We teach ages 7 and up. Younger children are considered case by case — reach out and we'll chat.
We don't offer refunds for missed sessions, but we'll do our best to accommodate you in another group if space allows.
Absolutely. Many of our students are adults who always wanted to learn. There is no age limit — if anything, adults often pick it up faster.
A maximum of 4 students per session. Always. Small groups are the whole point.
The once-off registration fee (R150) is paid upfront to secure your spot. Monthly fees (R500) are due at the start of each month. Drop-in sessions (R200) are paid before the session.
