Booking now, launches in December
Looking for private DJ lessons in London? At London DJ Academy, you get something that sets our private tuition apart: your lessons are personally delivered by the founder and lead instructor of the academy.
Unlike larger DJ schools where students may be allocated different instructors, your private tuition gives you direct access to the knowledge, experience and teaching approach of the person who founded London DJ Academy. You’ll benefit from consistent, personalised instruction, with every session focused on helping you become a better DJ.
Whether you’re a complete beginner, an aspiring club DJ or an experienced mixer looking to refine your technique, you’ll receive dedicated one-to-one tuition in a professional studio environment, using industry-standard Pioneer DJ equipment.
Private one-to-one DJ tuition: £120 per hour, including VAT.
Learn Directly from the Founder – A More Personal Approach to DJ Tuition
We believe the quality of your instruction makes a real difference to how quickly and confidently you develop as a DJ. That’s why private lessons at London DJ Academy are delivered personally by the founder and lead instructor, rather than being allocated to a rotating team of tutors.
You’re learning directly from the person behind the academy, benefiting from their knowledge, experience and understanding of what it takes to develop genuine DJ skills. Your progress, questions and individual learning goals remain at the centre of every session.
This isn’t simply an hour of access to DJ decks. It’s dedicated time with an experienced instructor, personalised guidance, professional equipment and a structured learning experience designed around you.

Private DJ Tuition for Complete Beginners
Never used a pair of DJ decks before? No problem. Private DJ lessons are an excellent way to get started, with individual attention and guidance throughout your learning experience.
Your instructor will introduce you to the equipment, explain the fundamentals of DJing and help you understand how to mix your first tracks. You can take your time, ask questions and practise each technique with direct feedback.
There’s no pressure to keep up with a group or move on before you’re ready. Your lessons progress at a pace that works for you.
