Good Instructor in Central Massachusetts?

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi All,

I'm looking to find a good instructor somewhere in the central MA area (ideally Leominster / Worcester / Framingham). I called my local shops but they have young 20 somethings as instructors. No knocks on them...I'm sure they're great players. I'm just looking for someone who's a bit more seasoned on instructing. Anyone know of any suggestions?

Thanks,
Tim

So I did the advanced member search and found about 75 people in MA that are instructors. The list is a bit overwhelming to look through... Was just looking to see if anyone had a good reccomendations off the top of their head that are in my general vicinity.

What are you looking to learn? Theory, rock, jazz, etc.

How much experience do you have already?

I live in Leominster, work in Framingham, and drive through Worcester. All 3 options would work.
