Nate is patient, encouraging, and knows exactly how to make lessons fun for kids. My daughter went from barely holding the guitar to confidently playing songs, chords, and even creating her own little melodies. She looked forward to every lesson and built real confidence and a true love for music. He made learning enjoyable while still teaching solid skills and music theory in a way an 11-year-old could understand. We're so grateful for his guidance. Thank you, Nate--you're an outstanding teacher! Highly recommended for any young student.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Kristina is literally THE BEST. If you're considering voice lessons with her, seriously go for it…read more-- you'll be astounded. I've been working with her for over a year and half now, and I started from *nothing*. With Kristina's help, my voice has gotten stronger, I've gained so much more confidence in my abilities, and I've learned so much about technique (but in a really simple, straightforward, do-able way). If you have even the slightest nervousness about voice lessons, Kristina is your teacher. She never makes you sing alone unless you want to! And between all of the fun exercises, it's a very gradual, very non-intimidating path towards singing solo *if you want to.* I know she has pro-level students as well, but Kristina is definitely beginner-friendly. Part of what drew me to Kristina was her vibe. She's, simply stated, The Coolest Person Ever. She's a little bit rock-and-roll, a little bit San Francisco, and a whole lot of joyful, hilarious, knowledgable, and accepting. Our lessons are very healing to me: we warm up with humming and chanting for a very somatic, embodied practice that does wonders for my nervous system. I could go on about Kristina forever, but the last thing I'll say for now is: Just listen to her music. Listen to her voice. Kristina's money is where her vocal chords are! She's a powerhouse singer with a skill level second to none. Her level of artistry is mind-bending in and of itself -- and learning from somebody like that is extraordinarily special. Thank you for everything, Kristina!

I've taken vocal lessons with Kristina for years, and her warm and supportive style of teaching is…read moresomething I truly value. She is very kind and provides a really comfortable environment and process, if you're a beginner vocalist like I was. She has helped me gain confidence in my singing ability which is invaluable! The cadence of our lesson is both mindful, and a practice of being present...while also doing vocal exercises that both challenge and improve my vocal range. I look forward to my weekly lesson with her!

Pottery Painting at The Hot Spot in Liberty Station…read more We took our team of 15 to do pottery painting and it pains me to say that for groups, it was a bit of a let down. I've been here before with a friend and I'd say this location/company does better with smaller groups and not larger groups. I pre-booked our reservation and when we arrived, they had our large table with the paper on it with most things needed except paper towels. The seats felt really close together even with fitting all 15 of us so some had to sit on other tables since it's pretty crammed. For groups over 6 (I believe it was), they charge a 15% service charge and I completely understand and am happy to pay it if a decent experience is provided but it was basically self-service so I'm wondering what should have been included. The employee introduced herself who was "assigned to us" and handed out the cards to put paint on and added our pottery selections to her notepad. That was the extent of her help. I ended up going around to our table asking if anyone needed paper towels (since they weren't provided) or more paint. If our table was a small group, I could see that not being necessary but we were a large group who was paying a premium. The employee didn't come back to check on us as it got close to finishing. I went up to get ready to check out and find out where everyone needs to bring over their pottery and the employee remembered that people should write their initials with a special pencil. It was a bit disorganized and I had higher expectations with what we were paying. Is the service fee just for the extra paper on the tables because the other groups/individuals who didn't "get someone assigned to them" got the same level of service our group did. Our reservation was in the early afternoon and with this July heat, it did get hot. The shop had doors and windows open but 1 small fan in the corner of the room that didn't make much of an impact. I'd suggest more fans because this place makes great margins for what they offer. Overall, I wouldn't suggest this place for a group activity over 6 people. The service isn't worth it for the service fee. You're better off to have the group go in as individuals unfortunately.
