Guitar Lessons Cardiff / Penarth: Your Guitar Academy

Dan has been a guiding light and an inspiration to my son. It's been a delight to witness his curiosity about the guitar develop and blossom into a hobby and and a passion. One that keeps him occupied and interested and motivated through long hours. Especially through lockdown, it was a precious occupation and outlet. His ability, and enjoyment with the instrument has bound along at a pace that has astounded me, and full credit for that lies solely with Dan and YGA. My son has enjoyed his lessons, and looks forward to them, and I can't think of a better endorsement than that!

Over the past 5 years Dan has taken my son from a novice through grades 1-6 on electric guitar. He is very professional, yet informal and, from our experience, relates well to younger players through teenagers and youth. The rate of my sons musical skill improvement is huge in no small part due to the guidence and coaching of Dan - cannot recommend enough.

My two daughters started lessons with Dan as absolute beginners and have made good progress. They both achieved distinctions in their recent exam and they have Dan to thank for keeping them focussed and interested. Dan adapts the lessons to their interests whilst ensuring they are continually developing their skills; they seem to get a good balance between the boring but necessary stuff and the things they like playing. They tell me he is very patient and funny, and they ALWAYS leave their lesson laughing! From my point of view, I find dealing with Dan very easy and stress-free. He is flexible when we can't always make the regular sessions and always keeps me well informed of their progress. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

Dan is the man .
