This is thanks to some amazing teachers that I have had such as Matt Arthur to start with and to currently, Martyn Hadders who seems to be able to get the best out of me. It has been very enjoyable!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Alain Machain2019-10-25They have gone above and beyond in teaching my boys how to play their instruments. They formed a band through the school and recently performed to a great crowd. They gave my boys the forum and the confidence to do it.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.SaraSwati Shakti2019-10-25Excellent Musical Tuition, Instruction and a Team of truly lovely people.
