Luckily for me, I was going to Phoenix and was able to visit her studio and try about 20 different oboes before selecting my Loree.

He has a wide variety of sounds to use, he knows his stuff more than anybody I've ever met. It was the most fun I've ever had recording music and I can't wait to work more with him again.

Here's a shout out to Miciah of Dodge Music Studios for letting my son use his studio to practice…read morewhile we were visiting Phoenix. If you find it's hard to get your child to practice music at home, you'll also know how nearly impossible it is when traveling. In the past I have contacted music schools, rented instruments, and even bought a keyboard and hardcase. Each of these solutions created its own problem from the school that said we could use any open practice room only to be barged in on by a very pissed off nine-year old who insisted we were using "her" piano, to having to returned to a music store for parts missing from the keyboard we rented, to having to pay a hefty additional fee to the airline for the oversized instrument case. By good fortune I found Dodge Music when planning our trip to Phoenix. Miciah made it easy to arrange and pay for practice space but the best part was the studio itself, a nicely furnished and impeccably clean room with a well-tuned baby grand. Sure beat the shoebox sized and airless practice rooms that we had to put up with in the past using console pianos that were on their last leg. Miciah was friendly, obliging but never intrusive and let my son get on with his practice as soon as we stepped in. An added bonus was Miciah's dog Gizmo, a very gentle, short-hair dog who would hang out with us. My son is very allergic to animal dander but both the house and Gizmo were almost antiseptically clean (compare my house anyway). My son didn't have any problems with his allergies and Gizmo was a welcomed lesson companion. Even though my son wasn't taking lessons from Miciah, I can say with confidence that his studio exude a relaxed atmosphere where one can readily focus on lessons. Thanks a lot, Miciah and you too, Gizmo!

My son had special needs, behavioral and a speech delay and during this time his Dad and I were going through a rough Ron's in family court. I am appalled by the negative reviews. They are absolute garbage. Simply untrue to say the least. I have met the owner, and every single teacher and supervisor here. They are some of the most loving, caring, and dedicated individuals I had up to that point met at any other day care or preschool. And my son went to Childtime on bell rd, which was good. He attended tutor time on bell rd, which was disgusting and horrible and even more so the director there was trashy and had an agenda. But kids prep academy had small groups, next level care/attention, and extremely invested, loving, and more importantly QUALIFIED individuals organizing and running the place. And my son was happy, treated fairly, and in his words, he was understood. Which meant everything to our family, especially during the difficult time it was. The value here is one which can't be sized simply by a dollar amount. I am a real life testimony. And I deeply regret not writing this and giving them the credit they deserved a long time ago. Please, by all means feel free to reach out to me directly using this app messages if you would like to know more. I can't say enough wonderful things about this exceptional childcare.
