Learn To To DJ at On The Rise DJ Academy - Nawaf (Student)

It was my first time visiting London, and was on the hunt of a good source to learn from specific needs, so there was OTR in which I was hesitant to book with at first, but after going for it and taking a couple of lessons, it was what I expected and more. I learnt a lot from the whole team and just couldn't have enough so I had to go back again and learn more!

Just finished the production course at On The Rise and couldn't be happier! I was very nervous before starting, especially as I have no music background but the guys put me at ease straight away and my tutor Alex was fantastic and went through everything slowly and was happy to repeat sections to make sure I had grasped all the tools. I would recommend coming here to anyone looking to make a start in music production. Keep up the great work guys!

My one day DJ course was just such a laugh with Jay. It was just the right mix of technical information, learning and generally having fun and playing some of my favourite party tunes. Jay is a great teacher, very patient and answered all of my questions. I now know what an utter skill and art there is to DJing. Unfortunately, I just want to learn more now!!!

I chose "On the Rise" DJ course because of the guys that are the tutors, Mr Jay Cunningham and Mr Terry Hooligan Ryan. My 8 week course was great fun very relaxed atmosphere but serious business was taught. I learnt more that I expected and was extremely pleased with all that was on offer. I've come away with a real understanding of what it all means to get it right on various equipment. The 8 week course is perfect and is worth every penny if you listen to the tutors. I didn't know much about my Apple Mac-pro until I took it in to the class, but now I'm able to teach others how to correctly use iTunes music crates and Rekordbox and well as Serato. Book your course with these guys you won't regret it. Read all our reviews on Google or Facebook

The one to one experience was invaluable,I liked how the structure of the course was articulated across,which gave me a understanding of the ground work required and some fundamental basics of music structure which is crucial to the fun part of the course which is applying it to the practical side of DJ'ing. Fantastic.

Went to On the Rise as an ageing professional (whatever that means! ;)) DJ with a big set coming up and no knowledge of setting up for the new generation of USB CDJs. They were absolutely brilliant. They jumped straight on it and over a couple of nights had me ready and raring to go. At the gig and it all worked like a dream. Was unbelievably grateful. 10/10
