My son has been enrolled in acoustic guitar lessons twice a week for 3 months ago and he's found a new passion thru the instruction, patience and wisdom of his instructor Andrew. The teaching style is suited for each student based upon ability to learn and progress. Perfect for our sons learning skill. Our son has learned to play several cool songs from artist such as Bob Marley, Green Day and the Beatles. We have seen many satisfied students and parents that are enrolled and we are looking forward to this new hobby turning into a lifetime hobby!

My two kids have taken piano lessons at Blue Box Music for almost two years now. We have…read moreconsistently been very happy with the level of care and professionalism that Sabrina and the other instructors have shown towards our daughters. Both kids have progressed with their piano skills and enjoy going to their lessons at Blue Box Music. Sabrina and the other instructors have created a very special and intimate environment at their music school where children and parents feel connected to one another. For families looking to take lessons in piano, guitar, drums, singing, and other instruments and skills, I can't recommend Blue Box Music enough!

As soon as I walked into the store, a staff member greeted me and offered help--even though he…read morelooked busy handling some paperwork. He asked what I needed, and I explained that my acoustic guitar had a broken peg tuner. I already had the replacement part with me, so I handed it over. Instead of jumping straight into recommendations or upselling, he immediately tried to fix it on the spot. Once he confirmed it was repairable, he quickly cut the string, replaced the tuner, and got everything back in place. The whole process took less than 10 minutes! I live in Carson, so driving out to Lakewood and getting it fixed the same day was such a relief. This guitar isn't for professional use--it's for my daughter who's just starting to learn--so having it ready right away saved me a lot of time and hassle. He even tuned it by ear in seconds, which was really impressive. Overall, a smooth and pleasant experience. I really appreciated the quick, no-nonsense service and would definitely come back again for future repairs!

Quick Update: a friend told me he changed his response!! So I just had to let the world know his…read moredeal. Be aware.. this guy Warren edited his response to choose nicer words because it showed how egotistical he comes off! Eek, big red flag to stay away!! His first response to my review was not so friendly for being a business owner and offering piano services to families with children. OMG! He appears he wants to fill his spots and even if you are already reserved a date and cant respond to his virtual assistant within 48 hours, he will say we will move onto another student. He is not apologetic, not sincere, not PATIENT and not understanding. Just say sorry, but instead he is now rude and so now he had to revise his response here since it will scare other families away! My original yelp review: Mess with my family or mess with my time.. this is a good way to to get to a bad start with me. This is exactly what Mr. Warren and his 'personal virtual assistant' Michel did. He messed with my time. He disappointed me and most importantly my daughter. - was on vacay for our anniversary in Italy - booked the payment they wanted while on my vacay, told them a date for a consult while on my vacay. took the afternoon off for the consult when we are back - booked the first piano lesson and my daughter was so excited to start piano with an instructor with amazing yelp reviews. - day of consult I get an email saying this isnt going to work out. The assistant Michel did not hear from me via email x2 days and Mr. Warren said this isnt going to work out and just dropped us and said they are moving on to the next. Oooouu, I was pissed. We were planning for her lesson and the consult. Wow.. no phone call, just a quick email. And I hate communicating over emails when it comes to discussing certain services. Michel should have called me. I am not buying a product, I am looking for piano mentorship for my children. And if Warren isnt nice and cordial with me, how much more would I trust my kids with this guy. I had to break the news to my daughter this piano teacher is not interested in helping us with piano lessons. Never met this guy, dont want to now. He seems to have an ego based on his emails. Please change Michels title to personal assistant instead of personal virtual assistant. Thats not an insult. We were treated like sorry you cant respond ASAP within 2 days, lets move on to another family. Found this guy on Yelp.. so thats why Im leaving a review back here on Yelp. Not all yelp reviews are true so I hope this helps another family if anyone goes through this or is deciding to start with this place. When I find a good piano teacher and studio.. Ill leave my recommendation here.

In his own words, "Mr. Warren has boosted my confidence to be able to play in recitals in front of an audience." So, he is not only learning piano skills but "life" skills to have the confidence and overcome his fears of performing for an audience. For that, as a parent, I am most appreciative to Mr. Warren! I highly recommend Warren for piano lessons; he will not only teach them how to play piano, but also teach them life lessons they will take with them beyond just playing piano. It's been a rewarding past year to watch my son grow!

She is an excellent piano teacher!…read more She gives private music instruction that's professional and educational, while being inspiring, enriching and fun! She's been teaching adults, teens, and children how to sing or play piano for over 15 years now, in addition to currently being a "working musician" herself as well as a worship leader and has over 30 years' professional performance experience. I decided to take piano lessons and in my hunt for a teacher, I found her on the Thumbtack site. Other students gave her great reviews, her prices were average and I liked that she didn't live 30 miles away for me (although she will come to you if you want). She's very easy to talk with and I can tell she's very intelligent with lots of information in her head that she's eager to teach me. There's a great 3 in on book she likes to use and recommends buying, where each lesson builds on the next one nicely. This is going to be a great learning experience and just what I was looking for to start playing the piano, BUT nothing is going to happen unless I practice. You get out what you put in.

There were definitely some moments when the class got really challenging, but he stayed patient, encouraging, and worked through it with her until she understood. He's always been communicative, punctual, and reliable, and he genuinely cares about the people he works with. You can tell he wants his students to succeed, and he puts in the effort to make that happen. We're so thankful for everything he did to help my daughter reach graduation. Somewhere along the way he became more than just a tutor, and we're grateful to call him a lifelong friend.

At the start of the year he was really behind in both subjects, and now he is not only caught up but actually doing well and feeling confident. Lennie's patience has made all the difference. My son can be challenging at times with his ADHD, but Lennie knows how to keep him engaged and on track without ever making him feel pressured. He has also helped him with executive functioning skills like organizing assignments and staying on top of due dates, while still letting him explore the parts of the subjects that interest him most. That mix of structure and encouragement has helped my son build real momentum. I am so thankful for everything Lennie has done and would recommend him to anyone looking for a tutor who is both supportive and effective.
