WANT TO LEARN TO PLAY DRUMS, GUITAR, BASS AND KEYBOARDS THE WAY WORLD FAMOUS MUSICIANS DO?

The culmination of over 20 years of development, Music Skills is a unique and proven system of being able to learn to play musical instruments better and faster than is commonly thought possible.

WHY WE'RE DIFFERENT

Everything we do is guided by our principle of "Learning to play better, faster". When we say better and faster we don't expect you to take our word for it. This is why we are always keen to prove it, even live on BBC Radio!

This is a clip of what Jo, a BBC radio DJ, learnt in just 10 minutes using the Music Skills Systemtm. It's worth pointing out that she had never played before. Though incredible, these results are exactly what you can expect when you join Music Skills at all stages of development from beginner to seasoned professional.

DRUMS

Drums has been our speciality and passion since we began Music Skills over 20 years ago.

Based mainly around rock and pop rhythms, we do make sure that you get to explore other styles such Latin, reggae, metal and jazz. Whatever your interest or current ability, learning to play the drums at Music Skills will enable you to take your playing to the next level.

GUITAR

Based around the music that you love, learning to play Guitar at Music Skills will help you give you the skills you need to take your playing up a serious notch.

BASS GUITAR

Bass guitar is one of the most underrated instruments. By understanding how you lock in with both the rhythm section and the chord structure and melody of the song means that you can become a versatile and valuable player.

As with all our tuition, based around the songs you love, learning to play Bass at Music Skills you will gain the skills to be able to easily learn and adapt to song structures using a variety of techniques from chugging root notes to slap bass. After all isn’t the bassist the coolest member of the band?

KEYBOARD / PIANO

As well as being a fun instrument to learn the keyboard is now the main interface between you and the computer in modern music production.

So whether you’re looking to up your skills as a producer or simply want to learn how to play some boogie woogie or chopin more easily, learning to play keyboard at Music Skills will give you what you need to be a versatile and intuitive player.

Special Teaching System

Your specially trained tutors will guide you as you rapidly develop your playing abilities. The end result is that you learn far faster and have great fun whilst you’re doing it.

Although responsible for students learning at degree level and beyond, developing professional careers in music, Music Skills is perhaps best known for having taught a number of professional musicians like Tristan Evans, drummer for the band The Vamps. Tristan cites Music Skills as being responsible for “teaching him everything he knows”.

“This is exactly what a personal tutor should be like…. Music Skills has vastly improved my technique in a number of styles, using the most inventive methods."
