MEET YOUR GUITAR TEACHER

NIKK JACOBS

Renowned guitar instructor Nikk Walters has been inspiring aspiring musicians for years with his infectious enthusiasm and deep-rooted passion for music. Starting his musical journey at the tender age of 10, Nikk quickly discovered his love for the guitar, initially experimenting with his brother's bass before transitioning to his own nylon string Ashton Acoustic at the age of 11.

Over the years, Nikk has honed his skills and developed a reputation as a sought-after teacher specialising in a diverse range of genres, including rock, metal, blues, and more. He has a particular knack for teaching classic rock anthems from legendary bands like AC/DC, Metallica, Megadeth, Kiss, Joe Satriani, Santana, Karnivool, Foo Fighters, Tenacious D and Guns N' Roses.

Nikk's commitment to his craft is evident in his recent completion of a 365 day practice challenge. This ambitious endeavour demonstrates his dedication to continuous improvement and serves as an inspiring example for his students, showcasing the transformative power of consistent practice.

At HanIon School of Music, Nikk creates a vibrant and supportive learning environment where students can unleash their creativity and develop their guitar skills. As he puts it, "What I love most about teaching at HanIon School of Music is just the atmosphere, and the vibe and the energy. It's just such a great vibe. We can crank the music up and let loose."

What others say.

 

“So happy with how far my son has come since beginning his guitar lessons with Nikk. Nikk is super PASSIONATE about his music and it shows in his lessons, this clearly isn’t just a job. My son is inspired after each lesson and it’s a joy watching him grow and learn under Nikk’s guidance.

Nikk was given a short timeframe to teach guitar theory so my son could audition for his high school MUSIC EXCELLENCE program for next year and he delivered! He was offered a spot in the program.”

“I started learning here with Omar Hanlon on Bass and was able to learn enough to make it to BERKLEE COLLEGE of MUSIC in Boston, USA.

Now I have a full time career in music.”
