The Northern Music Academy is based in Pontefract near Castleford and Wakefield and offers lessons in instruments such as guitar, piano, drums and  singing among many others.

From Beginner to Virtuoso – let us take you all the way!

Whether you are just starting out, or putting on the final polish ready for a concert career, we can guide you, support you, and teach you to expect more of yourself. From pre-school beginner to a retiree fulfilling a lifetime’s ambition to learn to play a musical instrument, we can offer the right environment for you to learn and enjoy developing your new found skills. Our instrumental music teachers and staff are some of the friendliest, most knowledgeable people you could hope to meet, and we are waiting to welcome you.

So many people only scratch the surface of their potential – but why be one of them? Properly motivated, with our guidance you can do so much more. With a sophisticated system of encouragement and reward, we will coax you to the highest standard you are ready to reach for, so that you can be proud of what you have achieved, and proud of who you are. Each one of us has musical potential, often more than we realise. With the right instrument, the right tutor, the right attitude and of course the right support, all things are possible. Whether your goal is to play for pleasure, to be a professional performer one day, or simply to learn a few tunes, we can help you on your way.

If you are looking for a new guitar teacher, after some piano lessons, brushing up on your singing voice, or just looking for a fun new hobby playing music with a professional friendly tutor, don’t hesitate to pick up the phone and give us a ring or pop by the Academy on Ropergate in Pontefract town centre.

So, the only question is – How big do you dare to dream?
