“Our 6 year old daughter loves going to ASC, she has learned so much in the past 9 months with Ms Anzhela, she not only loves going to class but loves playing at home. We are very grateful to have joined.“

“Ms. Cherie Valaray is an extraordinary teacher. The wealth of information I have learned from her is invaluable. Before taking vocal lessons with her, I had no idea what the resonance mask was, open throat technique, or singing with my diaphragm. Now, I can sing with less strain and have a louder, steadier sound. Her creative analogies really help me understand what I need to do in order to improve my singing. 10/10 would recommend her as a vocal coach. She has so much experience and knows what she is talking about. Not to mention that she is also caring and encouraging as well.“

“My son has been studying piano at Piano4Everyone for eight years. Katya is simply the best at what she does. She somehow combines absolute mastery of her art with an unerring ability to support the needs of each student. She approaches her work with the highest level of professionalism, dedication, and joy. I have the privilege of watching Katya work with her students every week, and every week Katya reminds me of the power of music to transform lives and inspire young people to attain their creative potential.“

He loves teaching guitar and it really shows in his dedication, patience and encouragement with his students.He is also an accomplished songwriter and performer which sets him apart from other teachers as he can teach the basics of songwriting to students who are interested.“

“Misha and Anna both provide heaven-sent musical instruction. My son is being supplied with both Musicianship and Vocal Training Skills privately with Dr. Misha. I enjoy that Misha is accommodating and enthusiastic and revels in my son's personal musical growth, as do I. We both appreciate Misha's verbal clarity and creative visualization skills. He makes it easily understandable how to hit notes, voice projection, singing falsetto, and breathwork.“

“I highly recommend studying with Ted. Ted's musicianship is unparalleled (check out his Ellington CD!), and his teaching matches that. He takes things that are very complicated and turns them into something much more digestible. It's so worth it; I've improved so much. Thank you Ted!“

“I've met her in Japan several years ago at one of her workshops. Not only as a superb jazz vocalist, but she also impressed and motivated me with her distinguished guiding and coaching about making music. I moved to LA and took her lessons and workshops countlessly. She is very tolerant and supportive to any student and leads them to the fearless marvelous moment of wonderful music with her deep knowledge and performing experiences. She is a great musician, teacher, and mentor I recommend to all class jazz singers.“

“Our kids have done the three big local band performance programs, Soundcheck, Join the Band, and just completed the School of Rock today. The biggest difference between the three programs is that the students at SoundCheck take the stage with confidence. That says a lot since the students coming out of this program were taught the skills they needed and the owners care about their students. The other programs are just take the money and run type of programs. The owners especially at School of Rock don't show any care as he sits in his office majority of the time with his back to people. School of Rock sends group messages without any individualize messaging, so you have no idea how your child is doing. Electra and Dan talk to each parent individually. You would think a big corporate program like School of Rock would be very organized, but Soundcheck runs circles around the big guys. Electra and Dan, the owners, really care about their students and want to be sure their students put on the best show they can. Their students don't go on stage embarrassing themselves because they were taught the skills and confidence to be rockstars by the Electra, Dan, and other teachers here. I probably shouldn't say this here, but Soundcheck is way undercharging for their programs. There is no better program than what is being ran here! Don't waste your time with the others like we have! We just moved out of state this week and are going to dearly miss Electra and Dan!“

“I am posting this review without having been asked to, under only the inspiration of the rush I just got from the magic of Shoshana’s concepts clicking for me… I have only been training with her for ONE MONTH, and I’m already singing songs I could never sing before with ease. I’m reaching my high voices without straining my throat, I’m mixing between voices more effortlessly, I get a “natural vibrato” every now and then. It’s amazing. I can even do it while I have a flu and a sore throat… I regularly sing karaoke and people have definitely noticed the improvement!

Keep in mind, these are songs I simply couldn’t sing before, notes that I thought weren’t even there…

Her secret is that she doesn’t TELL you what to do, she CONNECTS what she knows from her world into yours. You can only do this if you truly understand what you’re teaching and if you have lots of experience teaching different kinds of people from a diverse population like LA.

All this has allowed me to focus on the right things, make them muscle memory, and enter a state of performance flow, one of, if not the greatest feelings in the world to me.

Thank you Shoshana, with all my heart ??“

“What a beautiful and special venue rich with history and stories! Thank you for having us!“
