We offer acoustic, electric and bass guitar lessons. Drums, harmonica, ukulele and banjo lessons.

Lessons are given by Roger Wesson at 

Global Leadership Academy: Monday – Friday between 9am and 5:30pm. 

A meet & greet session needs to take place before lessons commence and this takes about 15 – 20min. At this session you will get to meet Roger and you will be able to tell him what you would like to achieve through lessons and he will explain what he offers and discuss how you can achieve your goals. He will also explain our terms & conditions to you.

After the meet & greet you need to email Wendy at info@squawkmusic.co.za and the terms & conditions will be emailed to you and a time slot will be booked for you. All fees must be paid in advance and the terms & conditions signed before starting your 1st lesson.
