I teach piano, guitar, bass and singing from my home.

My purpose-built MUSIC STUDIO, just off Broughton Road, Skipton

I live in the Moorview / Shortbank Road area of Skipton, a short walk from Skipton town centre. Our house is easily accessible on foot from Skipton Girls High School, Ermysted’s Grammar School and Skipton Academy. And, for those bringing younger children to lessons, or for people who live and work further afield, there’s plenty of on-street parking near our property, and you are free to park your car at the top of our driveway.

Our semi-detached house has been extended to include a fully equipped music room. Inside I have everything needed to offer students a complete musical ‘experience’: guitars and amps, effects units, two pianos, microphones, percussion, and recording / playback equipment.

The room also includes a comfortable sofa – parents are welcome to sit and wait while their children have lessons if they so wish, or to leave them and pick them up afterwards. I try to foster a friendly, welcoming environment in which people of all ages can enjoy making music.

Getting Here

By car or on foot

From Skipton town centre, head out on Newmarket Street, past the Wetherspoons pub and St Andrew’s Church. Go straight ahead at the mini roundabout, onto Shortbank Road. You will pass under a railway bridge, after which you take the 3rd left, onto Moorview Way. This takes you steeply up a hill, and our house is on the left hand side near the top just before a T-junction. You will spot it because the roof is covered in solar panels.

Nearby facilities

You might find it useful to know that there’s a children’s playground just around the corner from our house, on Hepworth Way. It’s quite common for parents to take their younger kids to play in the playground while I teach. Other parents use their child’s lesson time to get some shopping done: as well as the shops on Skipton High Street there are various supermarkets a short drive away.

Alternatively, you could stay with your child in my music studio during their lesson – if you would like to use my WiFi internet connection just ask for the password.
