Located somewhere inland Long Beach, this studio is a good, affordable place with large rooms, good…read moresound, and fair pricing. However, prices are going up in a month a couple bucks, so keep that in mind. They have small, medium, and large rooms. The medium room seems like a large to me. We got 7 people in there with amps. Unlike many rehearsal studios, this one provides a snare, in case you don't want to lug yours. I've seen the owner with a double bass pedal but am not sure if that is able to be used or you have to pay extra. The owner is pretty friendly. There is even a record store attached to the rehearsal studios. The only problem I've found was parking. Sometimes I get lucky and find a spot right out front, and sometimes I have to park all the way around the block. Still, it's totally worth checking out. Recommended for band practice.

Rodney, the owner, and his wife are absolutely fantastic they really know how to make you feel welcome. The staff is equally amazing attentive, friendly, and always on top of things. They have everything you need to get in the zone, and the vibe is just perfect. I especially love the cool band posters on the wall; it adds a unique touch that really inspires creativity. For me, Grooveworks is home, and I'll definitely keep coming back!

I've worked with Hear No Evil to record music several times over the course of the last few years…read moreand the experiene is always excellent. The studio owner and recording engineer is highly knowledgable and friendly. The studio staff are all very helpful and organized. Everybody really cares about their craft. The space itself is beautifully built and invites creativity. The atmosphere is relaxed but professional. There are several rooms for recording. As a drummer, most of my time is spent in the main room. The Hear No Evil team sets up sessions quickly while maintaining a positive atmosphere. My recording process has always gone smoothly. There are a wide range of instruments, microphones, and amps to choose from and the staff will help recommend what to use for the best result. If it's a longer session, there is a microwave and fridge to heat/store some food. Parking is on-site, free, and abundant. I give Hear No Evil my highest recommendation!

Very unprofessional. The owner, Elliot Koenig, had interns running the session and they were on…read moreTikTok most of the time. As an artist paying for studio time, that's incredibly distracting and disrespectful. I did not feel valued as a client. After leaving, I was repeatedly asked to rebook, instead of being asked how the session went. Bad vibes kill creativity. I would never go back. UPDATED Feb 1-11:24pm After leaving this review, the owner Elliot messaged me AGAIN on Instagram. Took zero accountability and only cares about his image. NOT the client. To address your comment, I asked for a discount, cuz your interns run the session. As Indie artists we have to fight to protect a space we paid for. Often times we don't have other options in the area so we suck it up, but no more! This is not a good studio. I would not go back. Look at how he responds to feedback...

My God what a rude reply I got for my "Inquiry"…read more I am in a rush for a photo shoot so I asked if they have anything available for the next day after 5. I got a rude response email saying "I can't help you based on your Inquiry- you haven't provided enough information." Then proceeds to tell me what they do but that they have no availability regardless of my Inquiry. Last they give me instructions (as if I am dumb) on how to book their services and to send the appropriate booking information. NO THANKS! It was just a question do you have anything available after 5. Say no if there is nothing available like you said regardless their was nothing. Straight rude!

This "rental photo studio" may be the cheapest in town but there is a saying that is true in nearly…read moreall cases: YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. First this "photo studio" is a total dump and it is also in a very scary crack infested ghetto neighborhood in Long Beach. I wouldnt have my worst enemy walk around that neighborhood. You really have to lock your car in this non-safe neigborhood and thats on a Sunday morning!! Like the previous reviewer said, the studio manager is rude and totally amateur, and trys to embarrass you in front of your client if you sit on her furniture or move any of her stuff. But thats only the beginning. This place looks like its had one too many parties/raves. Only the CHEAPEST studio lights are used at this "photo studio". The studio lights used are entry level Alien Bees. I personally hate Alien Bees although Einsteins/White Lighting from Paul Buff are OK. Its bad enough Alien Bees are used which are made of cheap plastic, non-color temp consistant and tend to break with heavy light modifiers...but when its been used and abused without replacement and you are trying to give the best photo possible...its time to look for new photo studio rental . I have rented at pro- photo studios and none that I am aware of use Alien Bees. The studios I rent at use professional studio strobes like Profoto pack and heads.YES its more expensive but the quality of light is so much better. Only go here if you are in a pinch and desperately need a place to shoot but truely you are better off buying your own studio strobe lights and finding a place to shoot or pony up a little more rental cash (you can pass it on to your client who will rather pay extra for higher quality photos) and rent at a pro photo studio.

Love this studio!! Woman owned!…read more My daughter is now 7 and has been taking lessons here since she was 4. I took piano lessons from age eight until age 16 and wanted a place that could start my daughter sooner. Raffia Music Studio was the only one that would start my kid at 4, plus it offers so many other types of musical instruments, voice and performance training. I am a serious researcher. I have always made exhaustive lists weighing the pros and cons of any endeavor. After researching several studios, I decided this was the one! Consistency is key in becoming good. We've had the same teacher since we began 3 years ago. Srimal is not only a teacher, but performs regularly with a band around town. I appreciate when a teacher also honors their craft by doing it. Srimal is very patient. Works to get the best out of his students. Pushes them, but also meets them where they are. Every winter, there is a recital where you get to enjoy seeing all the students performing their pieces. I highly recommend Raffia Music Studio!

I highly recommend Raffia Music Studio.

The staff is very friendly and really encourages supporting other dancers, love that. Felt very welcomed coming in for the first and only time unless more friends decide to workshop. Floors are a bit slippery but of course no street shoes should touch the floor however this was a pop up workshop so the shoes were definitely on the floor. This is my first and probably only time here so I'm only going based off my one experience here and nothing really blew me away. I do understand that this isn't a regular dance studio, it's more for kids and performative dance. Great staff though.
