Greetings!  

For those who were unaware of the change, we relocated Learning Trade Secrets back to our home studio during the shutdown in 2020.  Because of space constraints, we have decreased the size of our classes from 15 to 10.  In our eyes, this was a good thing.  Students have received more personalized instruction while getting to know those in the industry a little better.  

All students are welcome and we are 'plowing forward' (as they say in this part of the country) with our mission to train the next generation in the making and restoration of fine stringed instruments, whether under normal circumstances or not.  We hope you will consider joining us in 2023 for a workshop or two!
