    My daughter has taken both singing and guitar lessons at Waterdown Music Academy for many years now. She started when she was 10 and was very shy. The staff are amazing, always happy and engaging, sweet and patient, professional and knowledgeable, and a pleasure to deal with. She has blossomed into a confident teenager who still LOVES her lessons each week. I HIGHLY recommend this place!!!!!

    My son has been taking guitar lessons with Waterdown Music Academy for 3 years. He has learned a lot - after just 1 year of lessons, he was asked to play guitar in the Senior Jazz Band at school. His teacher is great and he looks forward to his lessons every week.

    The teaching style at Waterdown Music Academy has been a key factor in our son’s progress. The method is age appropriate, fun and engaging. The fact that our son sees this progress has made it more appealing to continue his lessons. When he plays, people often ask "where does he go for lessons?" This shows how his ability to play well is linked to how well he is being taught.

    My three children have been attending lessons at Waterdown Music Academy for four years. I have been very pleased with the service I have received. The studio is well-organized and updates on upcoming events are provided in a timely fashion. My children enjoy music lessons and I have found that the teachers conduct their lessons in a professional manner while making it fun for the children to learn.

About Our Guitar Lessons

Since we have students of all ages and backgrounds, we customize our lessons to suit each student. The main reason to choose Waterdown Music Academy for music lessons is that we treat every student as an individual. Whether you want to play rock, country, pop, classical, blues or any other style, we'll develop a lesson plan that fits your personality and learning style. At our last student recital, audiences heard everything from classic rock to contemporary hits to classical repertoire.

Beginners will learn fundamentals such as reading notation and tablature and basic guitar technique. As students advance, they’ll enjoy an expanded range of music to choose from. Our teachers can teach a variety of styles and will help you become the musician you want to be!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is there a discount for enrolling two or more of my children for lessons?

    Yes! When you enrol two or more children from the same household for lessons, you'll receive beginner lesson books for FREE! Also, the registration fee will apply only to the first child.

  • What age can children start at?

    Our private lessons are open to children ages 5 and up.

  • How often do we come for lessons?

    Students come in once-a-week for a 30-minute lesson (with 60-minute lessons recommended for advanced students).

  • How long are we committed to lessons for? What if we want to stop?

    Our academy doesn't make you sign any long-term contract. Our students are here because they love their lessons, not because they're locked in. Our lessons are month-to-month… take lessons for as long as you want!

    If you need to withdraw from lessons, all you need to do is to let us know by the 15th of your last month.

  • What happens if we need to miss a lesson?

    No problem! Just sign up for one of our FREE group makeup lessons.

  • Do you teach adults as well?

    Yes! We have many adult students learning all instruments that we offer at our school.

    Fun fact: a study shows that while 20% of children learn to play music, 70% of adults WISH they had learned… check this off of your bucket list!

  • Do we need to have a guitar at home?

    It's important to own or rent a guitar of your own so that you can practice between lessons.

    Not ready to purchase your own instrument? We have 3/4-scale acoustic guitars (perfect for kids) available to rent for $20/month.
