Monthly ZOOM Workshops

After an overwhelming response to my first own-hosted Zoom Workshops for the Scots Fiddle Festival in November 2020, I’m making this a monthly thing (certainly until we can do such things in person) and also catering for both Intermediate and Advanced levels in two separate workshops. 

Workshops cost £10 to attend and if you’d like to go to both, it’s £15. I’ll make sure the repertoire is different! Entry is free for Patrons.

To sign up and pay, please use PayPal to ‘Send Money’ to patsy@patsyreid.com and if you select the ‘friends and family’ option then PayPal will not shave a decent % off the ticket price ?  If you aren’t into PayPal then get in touch and we’ll find another way!

The next classes are on 17th (Intermediate) and 18th April (Advanced), at 2pm.

I hope you can join us!

 Teaching on Patreon

I’m relatively new to this platform, but slowly and surely getting the hang of it and uploading lots of interesting teaching content.
