This place rocks! Alissa Wakefield is super duper nice and knows exactly what she's talking about. I'm so pumped that a store like this exists in this town. Lori and blythe were super cool too and were very knowledgeable as well! These ladies really helped me out. They also have a ton of music books! I suggest you guys save the trip from having to drive to dunkleys or guitar center for your music needs. I'm gonna probably start taking lessons there too for violin. I also peaked inside their classroom and it looked huge. Also, they said they had a banjo instructor which is actually relatively rare. All in all, very lovely conversations, lovely people, and great service.

My whole family uses the teachers and resources. We have felt empowered and encouraged to blossom as musicians. Prior to finding the academy we had zero musical experience. The Wakefield Academy gave us a nourishing space of growth. Our 6 year old has been compassionately, gently challenged. A year and a half in and he can play Ode to Joy. The techniques used bring forth advanced theory and practice while simultaneously meeting each student where they are and their skill level. It is a non-pressure environment that makes anyone feel like they can thrive in music. This has helped my spouse and I to develop hobbies in guitar and piano. Its a blast! Thank you to the Wakefield's, Dave, and everyone who makes this such a fantastic place.

Learning guitar after 50 is hard but Wakefield's teacher Mr. Kirkland is experienced, challenging, and fun! Jam night is a relaxed setting to practice and learn for free!! If you are not sure about starting a new adventure in music go to a jam night and experience the teaching style relaxed and challenging.
