MUSIC LESSONS IN EDINBURGH

Private piano, guitar, vocal and music theory lessons in Cammo and Barnton, taught in a relaxed, home-from-home studio. Enjoy friendly, personalised teaching from fully qualified, degree-trained musicians with professional experience and a genuine passion for helping students thrive.

Lessons Designed Around You

We believe every student learns best when they feel relaxed, supported and inspired. Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to advance your skills, we design each lesson around your pace, personality and musical interests.

​​

Our teaching approach is:

  • Fun and engaging – lots of variety, no boring repetition

  • Student-led – choose the music and goals that excite you

  • Confidence-building – gentle, encouraging support

Lessons take place on fully weighted digital pianos with rhythms, backing tracks and recording features that make learning more fun and help develop timing and musicality.

  • Flexible – adapt lessons week to week

  • Creative – pieces, games, improvisation, rhythm, ear training

  • Communicative – clear feedback for parents and adult learners

PIANO

Friendly, personalised piano lessons for children, teens and adults. Students learn at their own pace through pieces they enjoy, musical games, rhythm activities and creative tasks. Lessons take place on a fully weighted digital piano with fun sounds and recording features that help build confidence and musicality.

VOCAL

Fun, supportive singing lessons for all ages and abilities. Students build confidence while learning healthy technique, breath control, pitch accuracy and performance skills. Lessons are tailored to each person’s voice and musical interests, from K Pop, Disney and musicals to pop, jazz and contemporary styles.

GUITAR

Beginner-friendly lessons that help children, teens and adults build strong foundations on acoustic, electric or classical guitar. Learn essential chords, strumming patterns, tabs and songs you love, all at a relaxed pace with encouragement from our friendly tutors.

MUSIC THEORY

Clear, supportive music theory teaching for beginners through to advanced exam preparation. Perfect for students learning to read music or preparing for ABRSM grades, Higher/Advanced Higher, or composition projects. Lessons are explained simply and applied directly to real music.

What Makes Our Lessons Different

Fun, Passionate Tutors

Our teachers are warm, patient and enthusiastic, creating lessons that feel relaxed, enjoyable and encouraging. We understand that every student learns differently, so we take the time to get to know each individual and adapt our teaching style to suit them. 

Home-from-home studios

Our studios in Cammo and Barnton offer a calm, warm and professional environment where students of all ages feel relaxed and at home. Parents are welcome to wait comfortably in the seating area or sit in during lessons if they wish. It’s a space where curiosity is encouraged, confidence grows naturally and learning becomes a genuinely positive part of the week.

Personalised lessons

Every learner gets a tailored plan suited to their confidence, pace and goals. We shape lessons around the music each student enjoys and the goals that motivate them. For those who feel nervous or unsure, we take things gently and creatively; for those eager to progress, we introduce new challenges at a pace that feels exciting, never overwhelming. Lessons grow with the student.

Community-focused school

We’re proud that so many of our students come to us through personal recommendations. Many begin with one instrument and later take up a second because they enjoy their lessons so much. It’s common for siblings, parents and friends to learn with us together, creating a real sense of community.

Start Your Musical Journey Today

Whether you're just starting your musical journey or returning to something you’ve always loved, we’re here to help you build confidence and enjoy every step of learning — and we hope to welcome you soon.
