Here’s a peek at what your first guitar lesson at TMSB will look like.

Preparing for Your First Guitar Lesson

🎒 What to Bring

If you have your own guitar, bring it along! If not, don’t worry—we’ve got instruments ready at our centers.

Also recommended:

• A notebook for taking music notes or chords

• A water bottle (learning is thirsty work!)

• Curiosity and a smile 😊

We make it casual and beginner-friendly, so there's nothing to be nervous about.

What Happens During Your First Guitar Lesson

🎶 1. Getting to Know You

Your teacher will start by learning a little about your music interests, your goals, and any experience you may have. Whether you want to strum Bollywood songs or shred on an electric guitar, we’ll align your learning path accordingly.

🧠 2. Introduction to the Guitar

Expect a hands-on introduction to the instrument. You'll learn:

• How to hold the guitar properly

• The names of the strings

• Basic finger placement

• Simple strumming patterns

We break it down in a relaxed, step-by-step way—so you feel confident from day one.

📝 3. Learning Your First Notes or Chords

Yes, you'll likely play your first few notes or chords in the very first class! You may even try a short, beginner-friendly tune depending on your progress.

This quick win helps boost motivation and sets the tone for the rest of your journey.
