"Maya Angelou once said "Music was my refuse, I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness" I took this refuse 3 months back when I came back to Lucknow from Mumbai to rediscover my passion for music which I kind of lost in the process of becoming a doctor. I am a cancer specialist working at Tata memorial hospital Mumbai. In June 2016 I decided to take break from my professional life and to explore the life in a different way. I joined a guitar class but could not continue for more than 2 days, my teacher was expecting me to play 'D' chord with a nice strumming pattern on the day 2 itself. I got so frustrated that I could not touch my guitar for another 2 weeks. Meanwhile I came to know about Saim A. Khan. I don't know it was my sixth sense or what but I decided to give him a call even though he was relatively expensive and located 12 km from my place, but today I am glad I made that call. We started from a scratch and gradually over a period of 2 months I learnt about the basics of guitar viz.chords, chord progression, barre chords etc. More importantly i regained my passion for music. I thank him for making my short journey to understand guitar a wonderful experience. "

"The first time I picked up a guitar in my entire life was a month ago, when I purchased one for myself with an intention to learn it. I knew neither the night nor the day about it, and I had not imagined that within a month, I would be knowing everything that is there to know about a guitar. And all the credit for this goes to Mr. Saim A. Khan. He taught me everything about a guitar in just 12 classes! Amazing guy, as a trainer as well as a person. Not for once did I feel that the sessions were becoming monotonous. The sessions are filled with fun, practice and loads of chatting with each other. It is a pleasure knowing him and an absolute privilege learning from him. I found in him a really good friend, and an even better teacher, who made learning guitar look like a bed of roses. "

"I never knew I could play a guitar until I learnt from Saim. His guitar lessons are organised, structured and easy to learn. He explains the basic knowledge of music like scale,notes,octaves,rhythm etc along with the guitar specifics. Every explanation is simple and specific which make the lessons quick to comprehend. When I joined the classes I knew nothing about music but today I have learnt and acquired an ear to understand music and play the guitar. The classes were a fun, easy and amazing journey of learning music and THE GUITAR. "
