Basic Dj Courses

Our basic DJ course is specifically designed for individuals who have a passion for DJing but lack prior experience in the field. We understand that starting from scratch can be overwhelming, so we begin the course by introducing students to the various types of DJing equipment available. From there, we dive into the intricacies of the mixing process, covering each stage in great detail.

Throughout the course, students will learn essential skills such as setting up decks and mixers, cueing tracks, selecting the right music, and seamlessly mixing tracks at the most opportune moments. Additionally, they will receive comprehensive training on setting levels and EQ, while also being introduced to more advanced processing effects and mixing techniques.
