Expert Guitar, Ukulele & Music Lessons in Issaquah
Offering private instruction, group classes, and pre-K programs for all skill levels.
Private Lessons
Customized Lessons for Your Musical Goals.
Every student is unique. For guitar and ukulele beginners, we focus on building a strong foundation of essential chord shapes and scales—and immediately apply them to the songs you are most excited to play.
Lessons are completely tailored to the individual. Whether you want to rock out, lay down smokin' blues solos, chicken-pick, or bebop with the best of them, we will map out the exact path to make it happen. You will develop real-world skills and a rock-solid musical foundation, including:
-
Reading & Fretboard Theory
-
Rhythm & Timing
-
Stylistic Knowledge & Technique
Not local? State-of-the-art MOOZ lessons are available for private students anywhere in the world!

Collaborative Learning: Develop your ear, rhythm, and confidence by playing alongside peers.

Recording Lessons & Sessions
Elevate Your Sound: Audio Recording Program Learning to record is one of the most powerful ways to advance your musicality. At Eastside Guitar Star and Ukulele, our recording program bridges the gap between playing an instrument and producing a professional track, focusing on both the performative and technical sides of the studio.
You will build a comprehensive skillset, including:
-
Studio Performance: Master essential tracking techniques, like locking in perfectly with a click track.
-
Audio Engineering: Gain advanced knowledge of recording software to seamlessly edit your best takes.
-
Professional Production: Learn to mix, master, and polish multi-track songs.
By the end of our program, you will have "radio-ready" mixes you’ll be incredibly proud to share with your friends and family!
Star Scholarships
Empowering Youth Through Music: Our Scholarship Programs
We believe financial barriers should never prevent a child from discovering the joy of playing an instrument. Eastside Guitar Star & Ukulele proudly provides music education scholarships for lower-income, school-aged youth in our community.
Through our Guitar Star and Ukes for Youth scholarships, local students gain direct access to the high-quality music programs outlined above.
Community Supported We actively partner with local Issaquah businesses and community members to sustain this fund, bringing the lifelong benefits of music education to as many young Eastsiders as possible.
Whether you are a family looking to apply or a community member wanting to sponsor a student, please contact us to inquire about or support the fund.
