At Per-vurt Dj School, courses are given in a Qualified and Scientific way. Our main concern is to provide the students with the best they can learn from the Science of DJ’ing and not only from our own experience. Students will be studying the structure of the Electronic Dance Music tracks from a producer point of view, and all about the Electronic Dance Music Elements and Sound Design. This way, mixing music would be straight forward and easy to be accomplished with fun, self confidence, and professionalism. We believe that explaining aspects of Electronic Music Production and Arrangement for the DJ Students is a very effective way for them to be able to understand every move they would make.

At the end of each course, students will have to present a practical examination of what they have learned during the course by playing a 1 hour continuous live set with no interruption. On completion of each course the student will receive his evaluation note and a Record of Personal Achievement. The record is a written profile of all aspects and skills covered by the students during their lessons.
