Mountain View guitar FAQs
Opus 1 starts private guitar lessons at age 5 at our Mountain View Grant Campus. Children under that age are welcome to join Music for Young Children, our group program starting at age 3, which builds the rhythm, pitch, and ear-training foundation that makes private guitar lessons successful when the student is ready. A short trial lesson is the easiest way to confirm a child is developmentally prepared.

Adult students set their own goals, choose the styles they care about, and schedule weekly private lessons around work. An adult trial lesson runs 45 minutes for $35 or 60 minutes for $45, so you can meet a teacher before committing — and there's no annual contract.
Trial guitar lessons at Opus 1 start at $25 for 30 minutes (reserved for children under 8), $35 for 45 minutes, or $45 for 60 minutes.
