The instructors, led by Chris Burnett, are not only incredibly knowledgeable but are also patient and dedicated to helping each student progress toward their personal goals, from building a strong foundation to attaining mastery. What truly makes this studio stand out is the welcoming, non-judgmental culture. It’s a place where students of all levels work together to improve, and there's a real sense of community and camaraderie. Everyone supports each other’s journey, creating an encouraging environment that makes learning both effective and enjoyable. The studio itself is also fantastic.
