Frequently Asked Questions

Most children typically start around age 6-7, when they have the coordination and focus needed to handle the instrument. However, there is no upper age limit – adults can start at any time!

We recommend aiming for at least 15-30 minutes daily. Consistent, shorter practice sessions are more effective than infrequent longer ones.

Owning an instrument is ideal for regular practice, but we can provide guitars to use during your lesson or rentals to practice at home. The instructors at your location are happy to discuss options with you. 

Progress varies by individual, but most beginners can learn to play simple songs in just a few months! Mastery of the guitar, like any skill, takes years of dedicated practice.

Absolutely! Our instructors have extensive experience with beginner students, and many successful guitarists started with no prior musical knowledge. With practice and patience, you will learn how to read music and play simple songs in no time.
