Hi Steve. Many and sincere thanks for the workshop experience on the weekend. I had a real shift within myself and with my music, awesome. And I simply had a lot of fun! The other huge gift is the new friends I have made." Jeffrey.

“… a very big thanks for organising Winterbreak retreat just an awesome experience. I feel profoundly moved by the learning and self discovery --- who'd have known attending a music workshop, would result in such deep personal growth? I still feel a bit exhausted and simultaneously elated.... Your joyous, positive and somewhat cheeky personality and lousy (just poking you) sense of humour was just right to keep things running and light-hearted amongst all the serious business. Congratulations to you and all the tutors ?" Anne
The Tutors
Ever wondered what it would be like to sit around and swap experiences with Internationally acclaimed singers, songwriters or musicians for a few days? Can you imagine what you would learn and the buzz you'd feel?
We take a lot of care selecting tutors for workshops and retreats so you get the best tuition in terms of content and delivery. All our tutors are internationally acclaimed musicians in their own right but are chosen because they are proven and experience tutors.
