Is Fast Track right for you?
Check before you book.
A few quick signs this is the right door — and where to go if it isn't.
- 01You've mixed at home — a controller, a laptop, or a friend's setup
- 02You can find your way around a music library and load a track without help
- 03You want club-standard gear and honest coaching, not another YouTube tutorial
- 04You don't need to beatmatch yet — class 2 is where that's taught
Never touched DJ gear?
Pro DJ Fundamentals starts from zero — begin at class one.
Beatmatch fully by ear, with EQ discipline?
Pro DJ Perform will move faster than Fast Track.

What's included
Everything from
class 2 onward.
Five 2-hour classes on real club gear, in the same rooms and with the same instructors as students who started at class 1.
- 01Five 2-hour classes of Pro DJ Fundamentals — classes 2 through 6, the whole back of the course
- 02The same semi-private rooms (3–4 students) and instructors as students who started at class 1
- 03Beatmatching taught from the ground up — screens first, then fully by ear
- 04EQ discipline, harmonic mixing, loops, slip mode, and FX, drilled on Pioneer DJ® club gear
- 05A recorded capstone set in your final class — the same graduation as everyone else
- 06Pre-work in your student portal plus a 15-minute gear orientation before your first class, so skipping class 1 costs you nothing
The path
From enrollment
to graduation.
02
Before your first class
Your student portal opens with the class-1 reference material — the gear guide, phrasing, and Rekordbox basics. Skim it, install Rekordbox, and arrive 15 minutes early: your instructor walks you through the club gear before the room fills.
03
Class 2, with everyone else
You join the same class-2 room as students who started at class 1. It opens with a phrase warm-up before the real work: beatmatching, over and over, then EQ. If you can load a track, you're ready.
04
The first-session promise
If after your first class you tell us it isn't right, we cancel your remaining payments — no forms, no argument. You'll only have paid for the class you took.
Curriculum
Skip the intro.
Keep every rep.
Class 1 teaches what a DJ is, tours the gear, and lands a first assisted blend. If you already play a bit, that's the only class you don't need — everything from class 2 onward is repetition your hands haven't done yet. Fast Track skips exactly one class: that one.
01
Pro DJ Fundamentals
Class 2 — Beatmatching and EQ Foundations
Phrase-based transitions become consistent beatmatching, then EQ: one bassline at a time, bass swaps on the phrase turn. The class is built on repetition — misses and resets are the drill working.
02
Pro DJ Fundamentals
Class 3 — Key, Organization, and Loop Control
Harmonic mixing with the Camelot wheel as a guide (not a prison), a music library that works under pressure, and loops, quantize, and slip mode as your safety nets.
03
Pro DJ Fundamentals
Class 4 — FX and Creative Transitions
Echo out of a track cleanly, use color FX with restraint, and combine beatmatching, EQ, loops, and one tasteful effect into a single connected transition. Then prep a short sequence you'd actually perform.
04
Pro DJ Fundamentals
Class 5 — Beatmatching by Ear
The milestone class. The screen goes quiet and your ears take over — with the cue button, then less looking, then no cue button at all.
05
Pro DJ Fundamentals
Class 6 — Capstone Set and Going Forward
You perform and record a real set, reflect on the run, and leave with honest next steps — Pro DJ Perform, private sessions, open decks, and the Booth community.

$695the five remaining classes of Pro DJ Fundamentals

Not right?
Pay for one class.
Tell us after your first class and we cancel the remaining four payments.
Fast Track skips the cheap intro class, so we moved the safety net instead of removing it: your first class is the proof. If the room, the gear, or the teaching isn't what you wanted, say so — we cancel the rest, and the $139 you've paid covers the class you took.
- No forms, no phone tree — tell your instructor or text us

FAQ
Common questions before you book.
Still unsure which door fits? Reach out and we'll help you find it.
No — it's a different door into the same course. Beginners start at class 1; Fast Track students join at class 2. From that moment there's no difference: same rooms, same instructors, same recorded capstone set in class 6.
We replaced it. Intermediate Entry was a separate catch-up class before the course; in practice, what experienced starters need isn't a catch-up lecture — it's the reps, which start in class 2. Fast Track puts you straight there and uses portal pre-work plus a short gear orientation to cover the rest.
Yes — beatmatching is taught from scratch in class 2, screens first, by ear later in the course. Fast Track assumes experience with music software and a real interest, not beatmatching. If you've never touched DJ gear or software at all, start at class 1 instead.
What DJing is, a tour of the equipment, where DJs get music, counting beats and bars, and a first assisted blend. The reference material for all of it is in your student portal from day one, and your instructor covers the hardware in your pre-class orientation. Phrasing — the one skill from class 1 the course leans on — is re-taught in class 2's warm-up.
You pay $139 a week for five weeks. If after your first attended class you tell us Fast Track isn't right — tell your instructor in the room or text us the same week — we cancel the remaining payments and release your remaining classes. You keep what you paid for: one class, $139.
Then we'll say so honestly, and you can add the class-1 foundations as a one-off or a private hour — your instructor will recommend it only if it genuinely helps. Nobody gets quietly left behind; the rooms are 3–4 students and the drills are per-student.
If you already beatmatch fully by ear and keep one bassline at a time without thinking about it, Pro DJ Perform is your course. Take the placement quiz or reach out — we route people out of Fast Track in both directions all the time.
All sessions are in-person at our studio location in Center City, Philly. Hands-on feedback on real club gear is the point.
No. All equipment is provided, including club-standard Pioneer DJ® gear.
Classes rebook freely in the portal and your credits never expire. Individual classes can be canceled or rescheduled up to 48 hours ahead at no cost.
