Energy and Enthusiasm Teaching Style

Snapshot:
If you’re an Energy and Enthusiasm teacher, your lessons are full of movement, excitement, and passion. You inspire students by making every moment feel like a performance, no matter how small. Your enthusiasm pushes students to give their best and embrace the joy of playing.

Era Inspiration:
Like the bold spirit of Rock, this teaching style thrives on connection, confidence, and big energy. It’s about creating moments that students remember, and look forward to repeating.

Teaching Tips:

• Incorporate performance practise:

  Have students rehearse stage presence along with their music.

• Set energy goals:

  Assign tempos or dynamics that challenge students to play with power and conviction.

• Build stage confidence:

  Record performances and review body language together.

• Add “showstopper” moments:

  Teach dramatic pauses, big finishes, or signature moves.

• Use group jams:

  Pair students for high-energy duets or collaborative sessions.

Fun Fact:
Pete Townshend’s famous “windmill” guitar strum happened by accident, proving that a little drama can become a signature style.
