Meet Your Teachers

Our teachers share similar passions, paramount of which are playing guitar and teaching. When people fantasise about life in the music industry, they tend to think about being famous or touring the world. For us, our driving desire is to give people the joy that learning to play an instrument brings.

Anyone can learn to play the guitar. Your age and previous experience don’t matter. Because of this, all you need is a guitar and the desire to learn! When you sign up, we’ll design a custom syllabus around your goals and needs.

At the Gryphon Music Academy, our motto is “Turning players into musicians”. Because of this, we will also encourage you to pursue music theory and songwriting to become a well-rounded musician instead of someone who can only play covers.

Isn't it time you stop making excuses?
Sign Up Now!

Whether your 6 or 60, nothing is stopping you from learning an instrument. It's all too convenient to come up with excuses as to why you can't learn music, but in reality, all you need is the desire to learn, an instrument, and about 30-min a day to practise.

So whether you want to learn metal, rock, pop, jazz, we can help you achieve your goals. It all starts with the first lesson.
