    Kelli ran a great session introducing us to the basics. The venue worked well and it was good value for money. It's a shame you only offer one-off sessions as I have a lot to learn and would happily attend more lessons in the future.

    I enjoyed the class and the time went very quickly. I found the venue off putting at the start as I found the music difficult to drown out when i wanted to focus on what was being taught, this was more to do with my learning style. It became easier once we got into it. It was nice being able to have a brew while we learnt and it was nice to have a few options of hooks to suit individual needs and abilities. It was definitely beneficial for me to learn from someone rather than watching online videos, the advantage is to have someone physically lead your technique as you learnt.
