A to Z Florida

Due to popular demand I will be teaching my A to Z Workshop in Mt. Dora right after the Central Florida Dulcimer & Autoharp Festival.  The dates for the A to Z Hammered Dulcimer Workshop are Feb. 14,15 &16 (Monday, Tuesday &Wednesday) 2011.
Class will run from 9 to 11:30 am and 12:30 to 4:00pm daily.  The location is the Congregational Church of Mount Dora, 650 N. Donnelly St., Mt. Dora, FL 32757.  The cost is $165 for all three days.  Contact Rick Thum at 314-406-0690 or email to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it   to sign up.  Registration is limited so sign up early.  

The class starts at the basic beginning so that we all have the same vocabulary and skills, and then continues to get into more and more detail as we go.  ALL LEVELS WILL GET SOMTHING FROM THIS CLASS.  I have taught this class for seven years and offer a full refund if it does not help you.  I have never had to do a refund.  If you want to get to the next level, if your playing has been stagnate, if you don't know what else to do to get better, this is the class for you.  Contact me today and I will see you there.
