Gigajam Interactive Music School is quite simply the most exciting innovation in contemporary music education in years. We use a performance based multimedia curriculum to make learning to play contemporary music rewarding and fun.

We use a unique, leading multimedia teaching method for Guitar, Bass, Keyboards and Drums. Course content covers beginner to advanced level playing and is structured so that students of different instruments can play together as a band as they progress.

Our lesson content will be primarily delivered via face-to-face lessons with tutor and student supported lesson plans, notes, video, audio and midi files.

'Imagine a world where snails can sing.'

How can you...
Write about a king when you've never touched velvet?
Talk about a forest when you've never run through leaves?
Describe a mermaid swimming when you've never seen a fishes tail?
Draw an angel's beating wings before you've seen a swan fly?
Tell me about the sea without hearing waves on shingle?

Sensory experiences promote the development of language and thereby the ability for children to express themselves. It is our role as adults to give children these experiences and to nurture the world that will be their future.

We hope our stories, rhymes and resources help all children to gain experiences and grow into their shells... and then look for a bigger one!
