Scratch DJ Academy, which was co-founded by Jam Master Jay and Rob Principe, will open its Chicago location on SAE’s campus in February 2013.

In total, the Scratch DJ Academy has four flagship locations: New York, Los Angeles, Miami and now Chicago.

Over 50,000 people come to the Scratch DJ Academy annually, to learn the art of DJing.
