How We Teach

Real Songs From Day One

No months of drills before the fun starts. Students learn the instrument, a chord, and a real song in the very first session, then build from there with rhythm games and group play.

Enrolled students also get exclusive play-along tracks and practice materials to keep the music going at home between sessions.

Meet Your Instructor

Hi, I'm Mr. Tiny Jam

Mr. Tiny Jam is the teaching persona of Jimmy Tran, a lifelong musician who studied music at Cal State Fullerton and the Musicians Institute. He teaches both kids and adults, and built the boot camp around one simple idea: playing real songs from day one keeps students excited to learn.

By Friday, every student is on stage playing for the people they love.

Parent testimonials coming soon after the first camp wraps.
