Musical Instruments And Teachers near Santa Monica

“Jonathon is a wonderful guitar teacher! I am a novice and his method of teaching theory and technique while also keeping things light and fun is really special and appreciated. I leave each lesson having learned something new and he provides great individual videos for you to keep advancing at your own pace. He is super knowledgeable and fun to talk to. I highly recommend working with him at any level of guitar.“

“Elemental Music provides high quality music education across a range of ensembles and programs while also creating a strong community among students.“

“Lloyd is a phenomenal piano teacher. I've truly learned so much through my lessons with him. Highly recommend.“

“Danny at Rose Coast Music School has been such a gift as a guitar teacher for our 7-year-old son. He is incredibly warm, patient, and engaging, and somehow manages to make every lesson feel both fun and meaningful. Our son genuinely looks forward to his time with Danny each week, which says everything.

We have also seen real progress in our son’s playing, which has been so rewarding and is a true testament to Danny’s approach. Danny really sees kids for who they are. He meets our son exactly where he is, keeps things light and encouraging, and builds confidence in such a natural way. You can truly tell how attentive and thoughtful Danny is.

We were first introduced to Danny through a very talented young teen who had studied with him for years and his whole family spoke about Danny with such genuine enthusiasm. That strong recommendation immediately stood out to us, and our experience has far exceeded our expectations. I truly could not recommend him more highly and we feel so lucky to have found Danny.“

“I took private adult guitar lessons from instructor Kai Hagen and the experience was amazing. He is a great instructor and very passionate. I would recommend his classes for sure.“

“Fantastic experience. I had a great time learning as an adult student and would highly recommend to any adult students interested!“

“A literal hidden gem. Make sure to call before trying to pull up. Crazy array of vintage and analog synthesizers, pedals, amps, and more. Bought a Medieval sampler by Teenage Engineering here. Only place like this I’ve ever seen in the LA area.“

“We’ve really enjoyed having our two kids learn piano with Devin. They are now learning guitar from Mr Poursaee who is very experienced and knowledgeable. Our kids love this place as the teachers are superb. The staff is friendly and it’s a warm and inviting atmosphere. Highly recommend!“

“Amazing music school! Both my kids just started getting lessons from HAMA instructors via online and both learned so much within one class. Instructors are incredibly nice and patient. Everyone working at HAMA are also incredibly helpful, kind, and fast at responding emails. My children are very exited to continue learning from HAMA.“

“My 8 year old daughter went to camp at Coast Music this summer and loved it! She wasn't very familiar with most instruments but the classes taught her and her band 3 of their favorite songs and they performed so beautifully! We brought friends and family to the show and everyone was blown away. We're starting keys next week! What a positive and warm experience!“

“Daniel is amazing. He helped me try many bows and actually gave me super useful tips that I will remember forever. At the and I bought a new bow and got my old bow fixed and it came out perfect. They didn't even charge me for some of the little repairs they've done to my old bow. Thank you!“

“I've been working with DREW for the past six months and have learned more in that time than I have the past 40 years. Part of that has to do with having the bandwidth to practice consistently - a little bit every day. More importantly, DREW's teaching style lines well with my learning style - he's extremely patient and communicates with precision and clarity; his instruction sheets (which I laminate and keep in a binder) are equally clear and helpful. I find all the lessons fit together in a way that continually reinforces the theory and techniques learned along the way.“

“Wonderful guitar lessons from a true maestro! His European training sets him apart. Markus' passion, dedication, and empathy make him an excellent teacher. I was able to quickly learn the basics and I felt at ease and fully supported.“

“She is amazing! 5 stars highly recommend her services to anyone working to emprove their voice“

“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 ??“

“Ms. Marianna is an amazing music teacher and so kind. We love, love her! Student is now in college.

The first music teacher we checked out when he was around seven years old, kicked us out in less than 20 minutes of our trial lesson. She complained that he was too hyper for her.
A few days later, we met Ms. Marianna She connected with him right away, saying that he was adorable & brilliant.

She used a strength-based approach to nurture his talent, helping him to flourish yeah after year. She later dubbed him one of her most musically inclined students. She was absolutely. GOLDEN!“

“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'm kind of speechless. My guitars have always played nicely. But not like this. Not even close. This is some sort of magic. I dropped off 2 guitars. Had a bridge replacement on one, new nut on the other. Both got fret work and intonated, as well as neck adjustments. Picked them up 5 days later. Both instruments are the best playing guitars I have ever put my hands on. I didn't even know it was possible for a guitar to play/feel like this. Tuning stability is out of this world. I honestly can't say enough nice things. I am absolutely blown away. I'm never letting another shop touch my guitars ever again. Performance guitar will change your life.“
