Whether you’re a total newbie or just curious, we want you to feel at home. No pressure, no judgment. Just a bunch of people trying something new together. ### What Our Workshops Are Like Our introductory music workshops are made for folks who’ve never touched an instrument before. Each session is 1.5 hours, so you get enough time to try things out without feeling rushed. It’s a group vibe - you’ll meet others who are just as clueless (and excited) as you. - We keep things light and fun, not like those strict classes you might’ve heard about. - Our instructors are real musicians, not just teachers. They know how to make learning music feel less scary and more like a stress buster. ### Pick Your Instrument - **Beginner guitar class for adults**: “Fret Not!” is for anyone who wants to try guitar. We’ll get you strumming your first melody. Don’t have a guitar? We’ve got you covered. - **Ukulele workshop for absolute beginners**: “Strum Away!” is perfect if you want something easy and joyful. You’ll play both an English song and a Hindi one (haan, ekdum mast gaana bhi bajayenge - yes, we’ll play a super fun song too).
