START PERCUSSION LESSONS AT A YOUNGER AGE
Many young children are simply not ready for the intensity of individual, one to one music lessons which traditionally follow a linear method. Learning in groups allows young children to explore and experiment with music in a low intensive format.
​
Our lessons are jam-packed with a variety of fun musical activities designed to cater for all learning styles, and our innovative cyclical curriculum allows young learners the opportunity to learn at their own pace.
We don’t agree with methods that are linear in nature and throw all learning points at children at once, so we break them up – starting with how to find the notes of the guitar neck, reading rhythms and more general musicianship skills, such as learning to describe music using musical vocabulary
​
We deliver a pioneering curriculum which covers not only the foundations of guitar playing but also general musicianship, listening skills, composition and improvisation
