BASIC DJ LESSON (CE101) program:

EQUIPMENT & SET UP
DJs will learn on industry standard equipment. DJs will learn how to correctly set up and purchase the proper equipment. We teach only on equipment that is used in professional settings but the knowledge can be applied to most standard DJ technology. DJs will learn how to transport, set up, and breakdown a DJ rig.

DJ FUNDAMENTALS
DJs will learn how to indentify characteristics of songs to mix and understanding the structure of every song. DJs will be able to understand how a mix is done based on the elements of each song. We teach how to listen to music differently so that your mix will work best for you.

BEAT MATCHING AND MIXING
Beat matching and mixing are the most important elements of DJing. We carefully teach DJs the importance of identifying BPMs for each song and how to match each song for the perfect mix.

SONG SELECTION
Music diversity is a key element to being a successful DJ. Our program can be applied to all genres of music. We teach on how to cater musically to any audience. DJs will learn how to choose songs during their set and be able to keep their crowd moving, even for diverse or mixed audiences.

THE BUSINESS SIDE OF BEING A DJ
DJs will learn how to conduct business pre-gig and post gig. We teach how to promote yourself as a reputable and professional DJ, communicate effectively with other DJs and promoters, understanding club, corporate, and mobile DJing, DJ contracts, what and how much to charge for services, and investing in yourself as a DJ.

Upon completion of CE101 program students will participate in a showcase where they will each DJ a 15-20min set. This will be held at a local club or lounge venue in which they can invite their friends and family to support them.

PRIVATE LESSONS
Connections Entertainment offers private lessons for those who prefer private vs. group lessons. All our private DJ instructors are seasoned professional working DJs with at least 5 years of the DJ industry experience. Most of our DJ instructors are products of Connections Entertainment DJ lessons and have become part of the staff. Each is familiar with the C.E. lesson structure and able to provide one on one tutoring at your individual pace. Most private lessons are held at off site locations but may also be given at your location if necessary.
Students may choose to complete the entire CE101 course through private lessons or just choose it for individual elements of the course. Private lesson students are still eligible for the 25% equipment rental discount.
