drop-in lessons

For the ultimate in flexibility, just give us a call at (434) 293-4017 and set up a single lesson. To get the most out of your lesson, think ahead about what you’d like to learn. Be sure to take lots of notes, or bring a voice recorder to help you remember what you worked on.

In general, we offer drop-in lessons only for students who have taken some lessons in the past – we definitely recommend that beginners start with at least a short session of lessons. But if you have a lot of experience with music and you want to try out a new instrument, a drop-in lesson could be a good fit. Make sure your teacher knows a little about your background and about what you’re hoping to learn.

The price for a drop-in lesson is $60 for one hour. You can get a 5% discount by paying ahead for a package of 4 or more lessons. Schedule your lessons anytime; they're good for up to a year from the payment date.

To get started, call the studio at (434) 293-4017 or email peter@richardsonguitar.com. We'll see you soon!
