Back!!
Now that the Ghost Opera has finished I am back to some what of a normal schedule (as much as a freelancer can say) so I am hoping to be back sharing sessions. Below is the basics one I did today after a few days off.
Summer lesson deal. I am also running a deal on online lessons right now Learn more below (it is a pretty solid discount, and limited space) (40% off single lessons, 50% off bookings of 4)
