8-Week DJ Masterclass

About the Course


Becoming a DJ is about more than just mixing beats; it's a journey that requires skill, knowledge, consistent hard-work, and a keen understanding of how to turn your passion into a profession. If you're ready to take the next step in your DJ career, my 8-week DJ Masterclass might be just what you're looking for.


I offer a comprehensive 10-step approach that goes well beyond the basics of mixing. While other DJ schools might teach you the practical skills, I equip you with the tools to translate those skills into a successful, paid career. After all, being a DJ is one thing, being an in-demand DJ with regular work is another thing! And I’m here to give you the real-world, current, and relevant advice you need to make it happen.


After completing the 8-Week DJ Masterclass, you'll be on my radar for potential gigs. I’m well-connected in the industry, and if I see that you've put in the hard work and started setting yourself up as a DJ, I’m eager to help you find opportunities. This isn't just a DJ school; it's a stepping stone to your future as a DJ.

The Details

Course Structure


The course is structured to accommodate your schedule, with typically one hour each week for the first four weeks. In the second half of the course, I’ve added an extra hour after the lesson for self-practice, supervised with my feedback. This hands-on experience is designed to help you become familiar with the gear, work things out for yourself, and gain valuable practice playing to a crowd, which is me, and trust me I have plenty of requests to challenge you!

By Application Only


Please note that this DJ Masterclass is by application only. With limited spots available, I’m committed to investing only in those who are willing and ready to give it all they’ve got. I want to ensure that all of my students you're not just passionate about DJing as a fun hobby, but also committed to your own growth as an artist and professional.
