Then you learn how to build vocabulary with arpeggios, scales, modes, rhythms & practice techniques. Finally you will study improvisation & songwriting so you can express yourself in musical terms. You choose the musical styles & repertoire so bring your favourite music to the lesson. Adam knows what it is like to be a student, how to stay motivated & enjoy the experience.

Adam taught me the guitar for a year. In that time I went from being a total beginner to playing some of my favourite songs! Incredible teacher
Highly recommendAdam is a great teacher, really made me at ease with my learning and very comfortable to talk to very patient and knowledgeable a great guide for any beginner or pro who needs a refresher. Great musical and technical knowledge.
Adam Holgate is an amazing musician and teacher. It's a true privilege to work alongside someone this talented.
Adam is a one of a kind guitarist and bassist. He has honed his craft through years of dedication to music to develop a playing style unique to him. It's this signature style, that focusses on sensitivity of playing and emotional articulation of melody, that puts him above many other professional musicians. For his talent, professionalism and affability I can't recommend Adam enough.
Having worked on numerous recording sessions with Adam I can certainly confirm what a professional and accomplished musician he is.
I have employed Adam as a touring musician and recently signed him as part of an artist project. he is unfailingly polite and professional and an extremely talented musician.
