My Aunty had been telling me for years, “if you want to play the guitar, I would love to teach you.” I thought about it for some time.

CHRISTMAS/NEW YEARS BREAK
Dear Students,
I am taking a 2-week break from the music studio over the Christmas/New Years period. I want to express my sincere gratitude for all that was in 2018, as it was one of the best years the studio has had.
