DJ Workshop was set up in 1994 to  encourage greater participation in dance music and DJing.

DJ Workshop runs taster courses with F.E. Colleges,  Art & Youth Clubs, Community Music Centres, etc.

We are committed to music education .For this  reason prices are low and Workshops are highly accessible.

All sessions last two hours and operate on Beginner and Intermediate Levels. There are a maximum  of 8 students per session. The main tutor is St.John de Zilva who is a working DJ and a qualified teacher, plus guest DJs such as DJ Kofi (ex:UK DMC Champ) for scratch classes.

If you are an educational establishement and would like to receive more information or book a DJ Workshop then get in touch.

We also offer an accredited BTEC DJ  Foundation Unit in the National Diploma for the Performing Arts.
