Formation DJ is a French online DJ training platform that aims to help users learn mixing from scratch and eventually develop into DJs who can take on paid live gigs. Its course lineup includes MixUp, BookUp, Parcours PRO, and DJ Tracker PRO, covering technical training, professional positioning, client acquisition, and finding performance opportunities.
Based on the main content, MixUp is designed for complete DJ beginners, with the goal of helping them master basic mixing in around 3 months. BookUp is more career-oriented, covering personal branding, finding clients, running a DJ business, and improving service quality. Parcours PRO combines the two and is positioned more like a complete professional pathway. DJ Tracker PRO focuses on automating the search for gig opportunities. The teaching format appears to be mainly online recorded lessons and downloadable materials. The free module includes 12 HD video lessons, 2.5 hours of content, a 30-minute bonus video, and a 40-page PDF guide. No information was found about live classes or 1-on-1 coaching.
The platform offers a free beginner pack, including a PDF guide, limited-time access to Module 1 of MixUp, and a bonus video. The page describes it as “100% gratuit”. It also states that Module 1 of MixUp is worth €97, but the full course pricing is not disclosed, making it difficult to assess the long-term cost accurately. In terms of certification, the page says the course has previously been certified by a national body and mentions Qualiopi, but it does not clearly explain whether students receive a certificate, what the certificate can be used for, or the scope and validity of the certification.
The main advantage is that the learning path is relatively complete. It does not only teach DJ techniques, but also covers software, equipment, music styles, the first set, personal branding, and commercial bookings, making it more systematic for people who want to treat DJing as a side business or career. The free trial also lowers the cost of trying it out. The downsides are that some marketing claims are rather aggressive, such as references to “a few weeks” and “€2,500 per month”, which should be viewed rationally. Course pricing, after-sales support, Q&A mechanisms, and instructor backgrounds are not disclosed in enough detail. The content is primarily in French, which makes it unfriendly for non-French-speaking users.
It is suitable for beginners with good French ability who want to learn DJ mixing systematically, as well as people who already know basic mixing but lack clients and gig opportunities. Chinese users can treat it as a reference for overseas DJ career training, but should consider the language barrier, unknown payment methods, and uncertain website access stability. Alternatives include DJ tutorials on YouTube or Bilibili, related courses on Udemy, domestic music production courses, or local offline DJ training programs.
