Each room is decked out with the latest CDJ and DJM Pioneer Equipment (the equipment - found in clubs - industry standard).

No, not at all. Our courses are designed to give you a feel for DJIng and helpfully inspire you to want to take it further. If you do wish to buy DJ equipment at the end of the course, we can arrange signifiant discounts for you on all Pioneer DJ Equipment.

There is no need to bring anything to the first class, but please come on time as we have a lot to cover.

Students are responsible for attending all class sessions. If you miss a class and wish to reschedule, you will be charged an additional $75.

Yes certainly. By doing the course with a friend you save over $100 each on the course fee.

We teach all ages. If you are under the age of 16, and one of your parents wishes to come along, they can come for free.

We teach complete beginners with zero experience all the time. We have a 100% success rate and are so confident in the strength of the course, that at the end of the course we will give you live sets at our established club events.

We specialise in all types of music: from deep house, future house, tech house, brazillian bass to electro and progressive house, trance, trap, bounce, not to mention RNB, pop and party hits. At SDS we have training exercises, using your preferred genre, to take you from knowing little or nothing to being a world class DJ in a matter of weeks.

Simply go to this link and check out our shop. All equipment is brand new and comes with a full 1 year warranty (exactly the same as buying it through a shop but at wholesale prices)

Once you have completed the course, you are required to submit a mixtape for grading. Once your mix has passed, we arrange shows for you at our events immediately. Our goals are your goals: that when you play, not only do you make a powerful first impression, but also, that you are a good representative of the clubs and the school.

We simply want to hear that you are applying what you learnt in the course to your mix. Main areas are: your phrasing, flawless transitions between songs and set flow. We give you feedback on all these areas to assure that when you play you deliver the best possible set, assuring repeat shows.

How often you play is in your hands! In the course we will teach you what venues will expect from you and how to work with venues to assure repeat shows. Learn to play the game and get a residency - simple! It’s surprising how easy it can be if you know how to approach it.

We get asked this all the time! DJing is not all about playing live and is the best creative outlet of all. If you want to learn to DJ, for fun, our course is your best bet and by no means are you obligated to play live. However there is loads of useful bonus material in the Club Pack including an Advanced Transitions Course. At the end of the course, if you decide that you want to play live, you can submit a mix for feedback and you may even surprise yourself and decide you want to play after all!

Certainly. Once your mix has successfully passed you will be sent a certificate (on request). You will also be offered club shows.

All of our Club Ready DJ Courses cover the same material the only difference is the way you choose to learn. If you like the idea of doing the course in your own time in your own home go for the online course. If you like the idea of working in a group and meeting other like minded people choose the weekend intensives. If you wish to have personalised attention the one on one classes are your best bet.

Regardless of your preferred learning method all of our courses will get you club ready.
