DTS was a huge turning point in my life. I grew dramatically in my relationship with the Lord. I made lifelong friends and the experience was challenging, adventurous and rewarding. During the DTS I discovered that the Lord had a purpose for my music and a calling on my life – He wanted me to use my gifts and talents for His work in this world. DTS was a fantastic foundation on which I could start to build my future upon.

YWAM’s Music & Worship Discipleship Training School is an experience of a lifetime. Encounter God, make new friends, travel the world, and find purpose as you minister with your music.
The Music & Worship DTS is a 5 month long program created to strengthen your relationship with God while finding purpose in the field of music & worship ministry. This school is specifically for singers (vocalists) & musicians and those passionate about supporting musicians in ministry (photographers, sound engineers, graphic designers etc). If you are a singer or worship leader but don’t play an instrument, you are still more than welcome to be a part of the school! Also, there is no-prerequisite for this school. In other words, you don’t need to complete a ‘regular’ DTS in order to participate in this one.
The core purpose of the school is to help you gain a deeper understanding about God and His ways, strengthen your relationship with Him, develop your Christian character, identify your unique gifts & callings and be equipped to share the love of Christ through relationships & music ministry.
A DTS is more than just a training school, it provides you with a foundation on which you can build a successful life and one with eternal significance. It is an amazing experience that we hope will change your life in the way that it has ours. You will make life long friends, explore different countries, and have lots of fun along the way.
