Kitchen Jam Launches

NEW NAME. SAME NOISE.

Guitar Tuition East London is now Kitchen Jam.

We changed our name. Not our attitude.

FROM KITCHEN TABLE TO GUITAR SCHOOL

It all started in a kitchen. Not a fancy studio. Not a classroom. A kitchen table with coffee stains and guitar picks scattered between sugar packets.


That's where we taught our first chords. Where frustrations were vented trying to nail that first barre chord. Where we realised learning guitar shouldn't feel like school – it should feel like home.


When we outgrew that kitchen and moved to our Stratford space, we wanted a name that kept that vibe alive. Something real. Raw. A bit chaotic.


Kitchen Jam.


WHAT'S ACTUALLY CHANGING?


Not much that matters.


• Same talented teachers who live and breathe guitar

 

• Same location at 8-10 Penny Brookes Street


• Same approach that actually works


• Same community of players at all levels


What's new is how we look, how we talk, and how we show what makes us different from those proper music schools with their proper music theory and their properly polished methods.


We've got structure. We've got progression. But we've also got attitude.


MADE TO PLAY GUITAR


(no artificial flavours)


That's us.


We're not here to turn you into classical virtuosos (unless that's your jam).

We're here to get you playing. To get you connected. To help you find that version of yourself that exists with a guitar in your hands.


FOR CURRENT STUDENTS


Nothing changes except the name on the door.

Your lessons continue exactly as before. Your progress keeps building. Your guitar still occasionally goes out of tune.


FOR EVERYONE ELSE


Just come.


Whether you're just starting out or you've been playing for years, we've got space for you. Bring your expectations. Leave your ego at the door.


Strings snap. Coffee spills. We keep playing.


Kitchen Jam. Stratford. 8-10 Penny Brookes Street.



Book now or just show up.
