Guitar Lessons

(AGES FIVE AND UP)

Overview

Our guitar instructors teach rock, blues, metal, country and classical styles on both electric and acoustic guitars. Beginners work on chords, simple songs and melodies, sight reading and theory. Each lesson will challenge you with a new technique or music theory, and ends with something fun – such as your favorite riff or song. We employ a variety of guitar method books based on student needs and preferences, and encourage students to bring smartphones, tablets or CDs to their lessons to learn their favorite tunes.

What’s the #1 reason to study guitar at the Academy?

Our guitar instructors are warm and friendly, and we get to know each student and parent on a personal level. We work with you to craft a lesson plan that fits your individual needs using your favorite type of music. Whether you’re playing in local bands, a seven year old taking their first lesson or a professional who is already playing in local bands, we’ll set goals to achieve your musical aspirations.

What styles of guitar do you teach?

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

How qualified are your guitar instructors?

Our guitar and music instructors have received their education from prestigious institutions such as Manhattan School of Music, BYU, Arizona State University, University of Arizona, Northern Arizona University, Arizona Christian University, California State University, University of North Texas, University of Southern California, Northwestern. Many have toured the US and Europe, and bring over 25 years of professional performance and teaching experience to your lessons.

What will I learn from guitar lessons at the Academy?

Beginner guitar students can expect to work on chords, simple songs and melodies, sight reading and theory. Our instructors balance musicianship and fun by making sure that each lesson presents a new technical challenges or theory concept, and ends with something fun, such as your favorite riff or song. We use a variety of guitar method books, and encourage students to bring their smartphone or CDs to their lesson to learn their favorite tunes. 

Do I need to purchase a guitar to learn the instrument?

The Academy offers classical, acoustic and electric guitars for student lessons (for your convenience, students can use one of ours at their first lesson). But to practice at home, you will need a guitar. We offer a variety of instruments appropriate for beginners to purchase and rental.
