Guitar Beginner

Overview

Our children’s guitar class provides a nurturing environment where young beginners can learn the fundamentals of guitar playing at a pace and energy tailored just for them.

They’ll explore popular melodies like“"Wild Thing,” “Twinkle, Twinkle,” and “Yellow Submarine,” using half chords. Students will develop essential left and right-hand techniques, identify the parts of the guitar and its strings, and read chord diagrams while enjoying engaging and fun music. This class is an excellent way for children to explore and develop a lifelong appreciation for playing guitar.

With a low student-to-instructor ratio, each child receives personalized attention to support their learning. Our small group setting fosters camaraderie, allowing students to learn alongside their peers while building social skills and confidence!

Class size is limited to six students.
