The Ballard Academy offers guitar lessons for acoustic, electric and bass guitar.  We have an excellent guitar teaching staff and teach guitar lessons in everything from rock to jazz, classical to pop, Spanish to chording.  Many of our teachers actively perform on guitar in local seattle bands.  Our guitar teachers have college or university music degrees so they know the proper theory and technique no matter if a student is interested in metal or classical.  Guitar lessons at the Ballard Academy are enhanced by the opportunity of learning how to jam with other musicians in a rock band setting or how to perform solo in one of our recitals.  No matter what type of guitar lessons you are interested in, the Ballard Academhy has the right teacher to help you.  Typically a student would be 6 before starting guitar lessons, due to their hand size, but some younger students start with a junior sized guitar.
