GUITAR LESSONS ACOUSTIC AND ELECTRIC

Want to know what lessons are like? Try some of the demo lesson videos down below to see some of the methods and study materials that we use. 

We use modern guitar teaching methods and resources that have proven results, but that are flexible and accommodate each student’s personal interests because we recognize that the lessons and training are more effective if the student is playing songs that are interesting and relevant to them. We do both electric and acoustic guitar lessons. We can also do classical guitar lessons for those that want to pursue that course of study. We try to structure our teaching methods to not limit students to specific styles, but in a way that results in well rounded musicians that are versatile, creative and expressive. With at least some daily practice, goals are easy to attain and weekly assignments are made very clear about what to do and how to practice. Guitar lessons can be taught in both German and English. As a student progresses through the levels, they will gain proficiency and music literacy through study of technique, scales, music theory, ear training, rhythm, improvisation and learning to read music charts, mainly tablature at first, but depending on the student’s goals and amount of practice that they are doing could possibly include learning how to read music notation. Our instructors are very well qualified and experienced and make use of modern methods and technology, multimedia, digital music resources, YouTube and other online resources to make lessons and practice more engaging and fun. As students attain more proficiency and confidence, they are encouraged to pursue their own musical interests more and more and our teaching methods do not limit students to particular styles of music and we will help students to pursue their own goals and learn songs that they are interested in. Students should be at least 5 years old to start lessons although you can always do a trial lesson just to see how it goes. No previous experience is necessary to begin lessons. Try some of the demo lessons below to see what lessons are like and what the charts and study materials look like. Some of them are pretty easy like Guitar Lesson 2 and 3 and some are harder like Guitar Lesson 10 and blues licks.

My son Tayson has been taking guitar lesson with Hans for 3 months now and he absolutely loves it. Hans is the most patient instructor you could ever asked for your kids. He knows how to talk to children’s and make guitar learning so fun. Couldn’t recommend Hans enough. By far we have the best experience thank you so much.

I highly recommend taking music lessons with Ben Perry. He is a very talented and wonderful teacher! My son has been taking violin lessons with Mr. Ben for a couple years now and my daughter is taking both cello lessons and piano lessons with Mr. Ben. My kids love going to their music lessons! We are very lucky to have Mr. Ben as our music instructor!

My son has been taking violin lessons at Honolulu Music Lessons Workshop with Kumu Ben for greater than a year now, and the experience has been fantastic! The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and patient, making each violin lesson engaging and fun. We've already seen remarkable progress in his skills and confidence. Our experience has been so great that we even enrolled our other child for piano lessons! The environment is warm and encouraging, perfect for young learners. I highly recommend this studio for anyone looking to start or enhance their music journey!

Hans is an awesome guitar teacher! Super patient and really knows his stuff. He makes learning fun and breaks things down in a way that just clicks. Whether you’re just starting out or want to get better, he’s your guy. Highly recommend!

I found this music school during a google search when I was looking to start taking guitar seriously. I had been playing casually (not very well) self taught for years until I signed up for lessons with Hans Fahling. I was blown away by Hans's teaching method as he was able to tailor lessons to my goal of being able to finally sing and play guitar at the same time. He is an incredible teacher and though I am taking a brief haitus due to career demands I look forward to resuming lessons as soon as possible and cannot recommend his lessons enough. Hans incorporates theory and form exercise in his lessons while balancing those core concepts with playing along to songs that you are interested in learning to keep learners engaged. Worth every penny. Mahalo Hans!

I started my journey for vocal improvement eight months ago from a place of severe anxiety and unsteady foundations. I could never have imagined singing intentionally for one person alone in a sound proof room, let alone a crowd of people, but that's where I started: in a sound proof room in front of one person. That person was Mel Kay, a brilliant music teacher in both talent and attitude. She is patient and kind, skilled at her art and inspiring that of others, and is versatile in her directions and ideas for growth. In a short time, I found myself moving from a feeling of trepidation to one of excitement before lessons because of her warm approach to teaching, and six months later I was performing on stage at a local bar! I just returned from a trip abroad where I played at a concert for hundreds of onlookers, successfully, which I never would have dreamed could be a reality I actually enjoyed living through. Though I was the one who put in the work, the only reason I was able to accomplish this dream is due to Mel's tutelage. I could not give a stronger recommendation for a vocal coach to someone needing help on their journey through music. Thanks Mel!

Landon prepared all the detailed material for us (2 people private class for beginners in this case) to learn the basics. Very fun and useful class! Landon also shared the material used with us afterwards so we could practice
