My son absolutely loves his drum lessons and teachers. He always looks forward to his sessions each week. It's great to see his confidence gradually building and how happy it makes him when he learns a new beat. As well as being taught, he loves the fact the teachers also allow him to pick songs and experiment with sounds himself too. Theo is looking forward to the start of another term with Jam. Thank you.
JAM school has changed my teens daughter life. For years she was doing ABRSM grades but when she joined JAM that when she started enjoying playing an instrument. Not only her one to one guitar lessons are great, the best is playing in a band. The social side of this, soon becomes the best part of the weekend. New friendships, encourage to try new instruments, to try singing, to perform in front of people, etc.... we are very lucky to have JAM school in Tunbridge Wells!

Bringing Rock & Roll into Teaching Guitar to Kids and Adults.
There are many skill levels to choose from and play, and it can be hard to know where to start. However, with a little bit of patience and practice, anyone can become a great guitar player. One of the best things about one to one guitar lessons is that they can be tailored to any skill level, from beginners to those who have been playing for years. Another great benefit of guitar lessons is that they can be a fun and rewarding experience for kids of all ages, giving kids a way to turn their favourite music into a challenge they can enjoy and be proud of. Joe, our guitar tutor is extremely patient and experienced, and helps JAM kids learn at their own pace. As a result, guitar lessons can be a great way for kids to develop their musical skills and have fun at the same time. From acoustic guitar lessons to bass guitar lesson to electric guitar lessons, whatever your guitar playing vibe is, we can adapt to different styles and help you start playing what you love listening to. At JAM we believe that learning guitar or bass guitar in a safe rock 'n' roll community like JAM really gives our kids a safe space to call their own, by using music to help them with their independence and individuality and have fun.
"I see JAM as our responsibility to make Rock 'n' Roll a safe space, to keep kids from getting in trouble and allow them a healthy and enjoyable outlet"
