Loud or quiet, complex or simple, heavy or light: the guitar is played where most emotions are located - in the stomach. This is where playful, single notes, loud, full chords or wildly drummed rhythms are created. The guitar may not be the easiest instrument to learn, but it is easy to take anywhere. And what would a crackling campfire in the open air be without a few songs on acoustic guitar? If the guitar is too big or too loud for you, you can opt for the smaller and handier ukulele. It is at least as popular as its big sister, but plays a little differently, not least due to the different number of strings.

Frequently asked questions
-
Do you offer guitar lessons for children?
Everyone is welcome to join us for guitar lessons! Children and teenagers learn intuitively and playfully. Even in the first few lessons, they can learn notes by plucking individual strings to accompany selected songs. A quick sense of achievement is guaranteed!
For children, there are smaller instruments that have the same structure as a normal acoustic guitar, but are easier for small hands to handle. Or your child can opt for the guitar's charming little sister, the ukulele. Our teachers will be happy to help you choose the right stringed instrument.
Our professional teachers are all trained in music education and incorporate technique and theory into their lessons in a child-orientated and didactically sensible way.
You can start directly if your child has already chosen an instrument or already has previous knowledge. If your child does not yet know which instrument they would like to play, we recommend attending the Instrument carousels.

Are there guitar lessons for adults?
Did you learn to play the guitar as a child and stopped at some point? Or have you been looking for a guitar teacher who suits you? Whether you want to learn a specific piece on the guitar or simply fulfil your long-awaited dream of playing the guitar: our lessons are individually designed for you.
We also adapt the rhythm of our lessons to suit you: if you would prefer to come to lessons at longer intervals rather than weekly for professional or family reasons, we have a solution for this too: our Prepaid cards.

We also offer lessons online so that you can pursue your hobby from the comfort of your own home. We are flexible and customise our offer to suit your individual needs.

Can I learn to play the guitar/ukulele with you as a beginner?
Even if you have no previous knowledge and would like to learn to play the guitar, you are very welcome to join us! We start guitar lessons depending on your musical goals. The classical guitar often offers ideal conditions for children, as the strings are easy to press down. The acoustic guitar with its metal strings often serves as an introduction to the electric guitar. Power chords enable a quick sense of achievement as the hand position on the instrument only needs to be shifted.
We pay attention to correct hand position and solid finger technique, but we won't drill you until you don't feel like it anymore. With us, you'll be making music from the very first lesson!
-
Do you also teach advanced students?
