Institute of contemporary music performance in London

I was looking at weekend warrior schemes to get back into playing properly and I came accross these guys, has anyone used them for the weekend warrior scheme or done any of their part time bass courses, (at £199 for 20 hours of tuition it does looks tempting)

Yes, I did WW through them exactly this time last year - our gig was on 29th May at The Luminaire in Kilburn High Road, which is 100 yards from the Institute.

Excellent value for money. The rehearsal facilities are very good (much nicer than yer typical studio), and the guys there are very helpful & supportive.

If you want more about how the whole WW thing went last year, give me a bell on 07786 251295.

I went there on an open day and the tutors are brilliant, all really nice, supportive and talented people. I'm considering it as a university alternative (the degree course) although I have found a university course at UEA that I like the look of.

These guys are where you go when you pass the ATM course...which is now dead as RockSchool took over and cocked it up, replacing experienced "been there done that" musicians with suits and ties.
It's a great place and a great course but I learned more in college...the musicians were more seasoned.

I would highly recommend it though.
