We have been
running fully residential weekend tuition
courses since 1994 for beginners to semi-pros
covering Blues to Jazz, Rock to Folk, Country to
Rhythm, Django to ... well, you get the idea!
We use fantastic
venues in The
Cotswolds, Wiltshire, Cumbria and Stirlingshire
and employ
top professional
tutors. The courses
are, first and foremost, group teaching weekends but
fun is at the heart of everything with jamming sessions which
often run late into the early hours!
These courses make for truly
unique gifts for hobbyists and fanatics
alike. Vouchers are always available if you're
not sure which one to book.
If you’re
not sure which is best then contact us but our
back-to-basics and entry level courses
(Strugglers and Improvers are sensible and
safe starting points). Just ask for a Course
Overview if you need more information on any of
the courses.
There's a tremendous amount of group playing
whilst we focus on technique, practical theory,
repertoire and performance.
By the end of a Weekend we aim to have imparted a lot of
knowledge but also to have increased confidence
and inspired the students
to carry on improving - many go on to join clubs
or groups, meet up with nearby ex-students or
even come back on
more Guitar Weekends (check out our students’
testimonials).
A Weekend covers lots
of stuff;
the hard work is made easier because we run it in a structured but relaxed and supportive
way using a blend of some theory, lots of
practice and the use of copious amounts of
songs. Our prices are all-inclusive with options
covering fully residential to
non-residential to sharing with a
partner/spouse.
If you’re
asking yourself if you’re good enough or
confident enough - don’t worry!
Our tutors are
extremely adept at pushing everyone without
making them feel uncomfortable.
Note that bass guitars are especially welcome on any of our
courses.
Course content
and our philosophy and approach to running our
Weekends is a long story – it's sufficient for
now to simply say that they cover the key areas
of melody, harmony, rhythm, theory, practice and
attitude in abundance.
