Choose live one-to-one classes if you want a tutor to guide you through each session. Choose a self-paced course if you want to work through the lessons on your own time. At Destiny School of DJ, the live Online DJ Classes cost ₹37,000 (about $390) and the self-paced DJ Tutorial Course costs ₹45,000 (about $475).

How to choose any DJ course

  1. Define your goal. Are you learning for fun, for weddings and parties, or for clubs?

  2. Check the content. Look for mixer basics, beatmatching, phrasing, EQ, effects and track selection.

  3. Ask who teaches. A tutor who plays out can share things you won't find in a video.

  4. Ask about feedback. You improve fastest when someone listens to your mixes.

  5. Check the gear. Make sure you can practice on the software and hardware the course uses.

No course gets you gigs on its own. You still need to practice, record your mixes and play for real people.

Is 25 too late to become a DJ?

No. Age isn't the limit. Steady practice is. Many people start in their twenties or later, and they often bring focus and discipline.

Can you join from outside India?

Yes. The live classes run on Zoom, and we teach students in America, Canada and Europe as well as India. Tell us your time zone in a free demo class, and we'll talk through session times.
