The studio’s focus is on speed of results (you will be playing material within 45 minutes guaranteed as long as you have 2 hands!!!).
Affordability – rates are kept as low as possible to allow the maximum of people to utilise the course and facilities.
There are open days each month where prospective students can visit the studio for a coffee and a chat about their requirements and available facilities on offer.
I am registered with the ‘Registry of Guitar Tutors of Great Britain’ to grade 8 for both guitar and bass, in the event of a student needing to take exams.
I am also in the band ‘2 Minute Warning’, so if you see us out and about don’t be shy – come and say hello and bring a glass of red wine with you (always after the gig!).
