Live DJing

Overview

Learn the craft of live DJing on industry-standard gear. Beatmatching, phrase mixing, transitions, EQ, effects, and reading a room — taught by working Bay Area DJs at our campus.

Continuity events: Open decks every month so you can practice in front of a real (small) crowd.

Included Private Lessons

3 hours of 1-on-1 lessons are included — perfect for prepping a set, troubleshooting your home setup, or going deeper on a specific genre.

Focus Group Classes: Learn Your Way

Group classes are kept small so you actually get hands-on time on the gear:

  • Mix-time on real CDJs and controllers
  • Genre-flexible — house, hip-hop, techno, reggaeton, more
  • Curriculum shaped by your goals: party DJ, club DJ, mobile DJ

You play. You get notes. You play again. That's the whole class.

What You Leave With

  • A 30+ minute mix you can post or send to a venue
  • Confidence on professional DJ gear
  • A clear path forward — gigging, online presence, or production
