Inspiring DJs teaches both children and adults the Art of DJing, teaching those with zero experience and supporting existing DJs with any DJ skills they need to acquire both on and offline. We help broaden and demystify the perceptions of DJing.
Music is a FANTASTIC outlet for people to express themselves, join us for a one off session or bespoke classes as and when you want. We do children’s (and adults) birthday/celebration parties, playing everything from Afrobeats to Pop to Zumba. Please contact us to discuss doing DJ parties or group training at your premises or using our studios in Mountview drama academy. We have access to space up to 8 x 10 sq metres (with ceilings over 3.4 metres).
We have partnered with 2 organisations and we introduce students to audiences via their networking events. No pressure on the DJ, as we simply provide background music – a great way to start to showcase all that you learn in a relaxed atmosphere whilst people are networking!
We hire out equipment to our trusted students so students unable to travel to us can learn how to DJ via Zoom or other video conferencing platforms. We typically teach on Pioneer DDJs and recommend to people of all abilities.
We work with adults and children, including those with ADHD, Dyslexia, Autism and other super powers and have been engaging with Voices for Autism – A support network for parents and carers of young people with Autism. Their aim is to promote awareness and be a voice for those on the spectrum who want to be heard, which is in total alignment with Inspiring DJs.
We aim to be the voice of encouragement and awareness for ALL kids with all abilities, and to continue to act as a support unit to parents or carers that are overwhelmed, or looking for engaging hobbies to motivate their children/family member.
Our 1:1 classes are perfect for those on any spectrum to comfortably learn at their own pace. We get you to complete a survey to determine music preference, music abilities (play any other instrument etc), super powers and any triggers we should be aware of (eg scared of heights, dislike of flashing lights, people etc…..) for the person undertaking the class, to ensure any awkward questions are addressed from the onset. Feel free to contact us before booking to ask any questions prior to booking your classes, if you’d like.

Resident DJs for Enterprise Nation & Generation Success
DJs with sufficient practice and skills will DJ at the events across Universities, Banking establishments and Business events across London & the UK.
InspiringDJs provide the musical back drop for a number of organisations. Our 1st residency is with Enterprise Nation who deliver events across the UK to help people start and grow their business. They are on a mission to create a more entrepreneurial society in the UK and following working musically with these guys we were Enterprise Nation Members attending online and offline workshops and masterclasses (which I highly recommend). We have attended and played for them at their StartUp 2018 & 2019 events and Festival of Female Entrepreneurs event in Bristol.
We have also have partnered with Generation Success to provide the music at their networking events which take place in banks and universities across London. They run several events including Breaking Barriers which took place during Global Entrepreneurship Week at BPP University in Waterloo in November and their annual rooftop Summer party in The Office Group . I have manifested my very own mentors at these events, prior to working with them and highly recommend their events also.
We have other upcoming events and we hope to see you there – especially as a DJ!
Autism, Dyslexia & ADHD DJ Classes
Our aim is to help those on the Autism, Dyslexia, and ADD spectrums fulfill and realise their full potential in the world of Music through DJing.
Inspiring DJs help broaden and demystify the perceptions of DJing to inspire wannabe and existing DJs to experience and fulfill their capabilities. We work with adults and children, including those with ADHD, Dyslexia and autism, and have been engaging with Voices for Autism – A support network for parents and carers of young people with Autism. Their aim is to promote awareness and be a voice for those on the spectrum who want to be heard, which is in total alignment with Inspiring DJs.
We aim to be the voice of encouragement and awareness for ALL kids with all abilities, and to continue to act as a support unit to parents or carers that are overwhelmed, or looking for engaging hobbies to motivate their children/family member.
Music is a FANTASTIC outlet for people to express themselves, and we understand that each person living with a range of abilities is unique, with differing needs and talents. For this reason, we feel it is important to begin with a 1:1 taster session offered ahead of the commencement of the programme. This enables us to provide a bespoke learning schedule and also ensures a comfortable fit (learning pace and style) for all parties (child, carer/parent and tutor).
InspiringDJs have partnered with Generation Success to provide the music at their monthly networking events which take place in banks and universities across London.
#GenerationSuccess run several events and their BREAKING BARRIERS event took place at BPP University in Waterloo. #BreakingBarriers is for those looking to get on the #career ladder, excel in their #profession or start/grow their #business.

"Petite DJ is an incredibly patient and thorough teacher. She is patient and interested in bringing out the best in her students. This includes inspiring them to achieve their musical endeavors. I was fortunate to receive a lesson from Petite DJ while traveling through London from NYC. She taught me vital technical skills, and made sure I understood each step. The lesson improved my overall confidence and musical knowledge.
I had so much fun learning DJ skills, and would highly recommend Petite DJ to anyone regardless of skill level. she will work with you!...."
