We recommend that children start guitar lessons at age 6 and up.  While every child is different, we have found that children under 6 often find it challenging to push the down on the strings and get a consistent tone.  We suggest that younger children (age 6-8) start with a 3/4 size classical guitar with nylon strings.  The smaller size is much easier to handle and the nylon strings are more comfortable to push down on.

We get this question often from adults.  They wonder if they are too old to start guitar lessons. You are never too old to learn the guitar, or any instrument for that matter. We have taught hundreds of adult guitar students of all ages. Learning the guitar can help keep mature minds active, and provide an amazing hobby.

We teach most styles, from rock, pop, jazz, blues, metal, and country guitar – on electric and acoustic guitars.

Our guitar teachers have received their musical education from such prestigious institutions as York University, Humber College, Mohawk College, and the University of Toronto.  Many have toured the US and Canada, and bring years of professional music performance and teaching experience to your lessons.

Beginner guitar students will work on chords, simple songs and melodies, sight reading and music theory. Our guitar teachers balance musicianship and fun by making sure that you get a new technical or theory concept in each lesson, ending with something fun, such as your favorite riff or song. We use a variety of guitar method books, and encourage students to bring their smart phone or MP3’s to their lessons to learn their favorite songs.
