The Owner Halley is the sweetest and most helpful, she goes above and beyond to make sure both staff and families feel welcome and their voices heard at the school 100% hands down recommend comming out to stop by and check out what they have to offer here in Woodland Hills!!

I am extremely disappointed with my experience and feel that other families should be aware before…read morecommitting their time and money. The biggest issue wasn't just the scheduling--it was the complete lack of honesty, consistency, and accountability from the staff. What made the situation even more frustrating was the way prepaid piano lessons were handled. We paid in advance with the expectation that those lessons would either be provided as agreed or refunded if they could not be honored. Despite the scheduling problems being on their end, they refused to refund the remaining prepaid lessons. Keeping customers' money while failing to provide the agreed-upon service is unacceptable and leaves families feeling taken advantage of. As a paying client, I expected a professional organization that could properly manage appointments and communicate clearly. Unfortunately, that was not my experience. Communication throughout the process was inconsistent and, at times, contradictory. Halley would tell us one thing, only to later say something completely different. It became very difficult to know what information was actually accurate because the explanation seemed to change depending on the conversation. Whether it involved scheduling, policies, or refunds, the answers were never consistent. That inconsistency made it feel like there was little transparency or accountability. I rarely leave negative reviews, but I believe it's important for prospective customers to know what they may be dealing with. If you're considering taking lessons here, make sure you get every policy and every promise in writing. Based on my experience, verbal assurances may not match what you're later told. I sincerely hope the business improves its scheduling practices, communicates more honestly, and treats its customers fairly when problems arise. Until then, I cannot recommend this business to anyone looking for a professional, trustworthy, and customer-focused music school.

Misha and Anna both provide heaven-sent musical instruction. My son is being supplied with both…read moreMusicianship and Vocal Training Skills privately with Dr. Misha. I enjoy that Misha is accommodating and enthusiastic and revels in my son's personal musical growth, as do I. We both appreciate Misha's verbal clarity and creative visualization skills. He makes it easily understandable how to hit notes, voice projection, singing falsetto, and breathwork.

In my search for quality music education, I found that most classes or schools hired inexperienced…read morecollege students or staff to teach music to younger children. Not. Good. Then, I stumbled across Dr. Misha, Dr. Krendel and MUSYCA. During the pandemic, I had the added benefit of "monitoring" classes via Zoom and was absolutely astounded at the quality of education and repertoire presented in the most positive, fun ways I've ever witnessed. Because Dr. Misha, who has an incredibly extensive resume, teaches the students, they are exposed to the best immediately. Technique and musicianship are bundled up in so much singing, fun and respect! The music is ever-flowing and Dr. Misha is a wizard educator. These kids are getting such a high-quality foundation, it's an absolute no-brainer for us. Needless to say, we have continued through in person classes and there's not a kid that walks out of choir that isn't smiling. The executive director and virtuoso pianist, Dr. Krendel, does an outstanding job of finding extra, non-required live performance and recording studio opportunities for the kids (including performances on PBS, at the Kia Forum, sessions for UNICEF and much more) in addition to the outstanding winter and spring programs for the community. As the choirs are divided by age, there is plenty of room for social emotional and musical growth. Many friends will be made! Truly a home away from home. It is a private choir, and the value and investment in the students out-ways the cost. They do have scholarships. MUSYCA has already become and will continue to be one of the best investments in my child's education and growth as well as one of the best sources of amazing memories for our family.

My daughter at 6yrs old was so excited to learn to play the piano and two years later still loves it. I've see how much she has improved and gained confidence as she continues to learn. I love Mrs. Larissa she is such a beautiful person and really loves to teach. I see how excited she gets when my daughter has learned a song well or just a cord. Her fee is more than fair and works with our schedule. Now our 5yr old is taking lessons as well. We are so blessed to have found Mrs. Larissa.

She started from not knowing how to read or play music at all and now a handful of years later and she is playing so beautifully that, when hearing her play from another room or over the phone, other people will say "Is that really Quinn or do you have the TV or a video playing in the other room?" Her passion for playing has also continued to grow, and despite being a very busy teenager, she never wants to miss a lesson and looks forward to each lesson with enthusiasm. Miss Kristina is patient, flexible and understanding and easy to work with. She's great with kids and adults alike, and a just generally kind person and great teacher. We will be very sad the day Quinn goes off to college and we won't hear her practice or come running in to show us the new piece that she and Miss Kristina have been working on. Can't recommend her enough!

In addition to personal lessons, they strongly encourage their students to perform in one of the many concert performances they put on every few months. In these performances, the students focus on a musical genre which can range from rock to alternative to blues and so on. The instructors quickly recognized her guitar talent and encouraged her to try out for House Band, which she did. In House Band, the students take their music skills to another level and perform challenging pieces. House Band performances have ranged from competitions to venues in Beverly Hills, Hollywood, and San Diego. The instructors also focus on music theory and improvisation with my daughter. The instructors come from well recognized music schools and offer constant feedback and encouragement, while holding high expectations from their students. My daughter has also met great kids in her bands and formed friendships with many of the other performers. They even plan fun events outside of practice. My daughter is very happy at School of Rock. With the skills and experience she is gaining here, she has decided that she wants to continue her music education in college.
