Our guitar lessons cover acoustic and electric guitar across rock, blues, jazz, classical, folk, and pop styles. You'll learn proper fretting technique, chord voicings, scales, improvisation, and song structure. Lessons are tailored to your musical interests and goals.
Playa del Rey is a small, tight-knit beach community tucked between Marina del Rey and the Ballona Wetlands. Despite its compact size, Playa del Rey is home to families and professionals who care deeply about quality education — including music. TakeSessions provides private lessons that bring big-city caliber instruction to this intimate coastal neighborhood.
Many Playa del Rey students attend nearby Playa del Rey Elementary, Westchester Enriched Sciences Magnets, or Loyola Marymount University prep schools. Our musicians work with students at every level, from young beginners taking their first piano lesson to adults picking up guitar after years of wanting to learn.
The neighborhood's stunning sunsets, Ballona Creek bike path, and relaxed beach atmosphere create a uniquely inspiring backdrop for musical study. Our Santa Monica studio is a short drive up Lincoln Boulevard, and online lessons are perfect for evenings when you'd rather stay close to the coast.

What Guitar Students Say
"Marcus is the real deal. Having a musician who's actually worked in the industry makes such a difference. My guitar playing has improved more in 3 months than in 2 years of self-teaching."
"The online lessons work surprisingly well. I take guitar lessons with Marcus from my home office and the quality is great. Flexible scheduling is a huge plus."
