My son has ADHD, and I never thought she would be able to play guitar this well with full confidence, but this happened because of Thorne at River District. she helped my son and she plays pop now with real pride

I am based in Sun Groves and Thorne runs a great group class. Even with several students, she still gives personal tips and makes sure everyone improves. My kid enjoys the social side but still is ale to learn serious skills like tab reading and proper posture Thorne lessons are best for beginners and I would recommed her to anyone looking for guitar lessons.
