Not beginner friendly. My experience here was not good. If it weren't for Charlotte, I would have…read moregiven this place 1 star. I would say this place is more for those with experience since you are pressured to perform. I am sure all the 5 star reviewers have had lessons before coming here. I started coming here in early October and left 3 weeks later. When I came, we had to perform within 2 months. We were all expected to know 4 songs within 3 lessons (6 hours, since each lesson lasts 2 hours). I can't learn how to have long conversations in a different language in this small amount of time. I did not care for Todd's teaching methods. I could not bear to see how he was talking to another student who I will call S for privacy reasons. I felt pretty bad for S. Like, I do agree that his performance was average, but you need more time to learn than just 2 months! He was also making things seem like a serious problem, which can easily crush dreams. I felt like I was auditioning for AGT or something. The ear buds they give you did not look like they get cleaned at all (as another reviewer said), which disgusted me, so I decided to use their huge headphones instead. They have a variety of colors and designs, but they only have one size. They do not look like they are for kids. I saw this little 4-year-old girl wearing those headphones with the unicorn pattern, and the ear protection part was below her ears, which is dangerous. The one positive thing was my private lessons with Charlotte. I enjoyed them more than being with the group and Todd. I would speak highly of her with my parents. She was very understanding of my feelings. I'm sad I cannot come for lessons with her, but I am also now taking voice lessons at a different place.

He says he credits Alex for giving him the training to have done so well. His love of the violin will be lifelong in part because of his wonderful training with Mr. Shipitsyn.

I started taking West African Drumming (Djembe) lessons from David Hilal recently…read more I was nervous at first. I wondered how many people would be there and if I'd be out-of-place as a beginner. But, from the first day, David and my fellow students made me feel welcome. Even when I got pissy and frustrated during my second lesson, David helped me through it. David has a way of teaching that allows me to participate as a beginner while he assigns more complex rhythms to intermediate and advanced students. Some of us play Djembe while an advanced student accompanies us on dun duns. During the lesson, David will allow us to record specific rhythms or exercises he wants us to practice. When he gave us "hand over hand" exercises, my skill started to improve very quickly. It isn't totally easy, but it is TOTALLY FUN! RECOMMEND.

The voice teacher and the piano teacher use two different phone numbers to text me, and I never realized that they are the same studio until I got there.

If this studio doesn't allow more than one trial for different kinds of music, they should mention it at the beginning but not to blame potential client.

He taught me how to relax while playing and made things incredibly simple for me. Since I travel a lot for work, about two months in, we had to switch to FaceTime/Zoom lessons. This was fantastic because it kept me on my learning journey. As time went on, I've steadily improved. I can now play scales, rhythms, and even some lead. I'm 56 years old and have only been playing for three years, but I love it! I'm excited to participate in Oc Music Shop workshops where people can come together and jam. There are even older guys like me who can all get together and play. So, please call today and schedule your first lesson. Maybe I'll see you there one day. One love to Oc Music Shop!
