I like it that she starts from the basics and teaches classical songs as well as contemporary and pop songs. It's also great that she offers both online and in person classes.

Yassi is patient and helps you to gain confidence in playing! all in all she is a great teacher and I will recommend her piano lessons to everyone!

Review for Kids Love Music - Baby class through City of Irvine. Held at Northwood Community Park,…read morerun by Karen Greeno. $70 for 5 half hour classes. $14 per class. We just got back from our final class. This is a great class for babies. Each of the five classes follows the same structure and we sing the same songs. You don't have to be great at singing, or even feel pressured to sing as Karen sings, but it's nice if you want to. My baby loved it and by the last week she was just getting to know the instruments and starting to bang the drums. Karen brings some instruments for them to play (rattles/drums). I believe that the next session she will use different instruments and be doing different songs, so if you sign up again it's a bit different. At the end of each lesson there are about 15 minutes for the babies to 'play.' It could be a good way to meet other mums. I'd definitely give it a go at least once.

You are also given a Spotify playlist ahead of time so the kiddos can learn the songs. There is fun guitar sing alongs, parachute play and other fun things with other young aged kiddos.

We are very grateful for Jason and Soundscape Music! My two children have been with the school for…read moreseveral years and they have helped my children prepare and book lead roles in movies, tv shows and commercials. If it wasn't for Jason and his instructors, my son would not have started in the entertainment industry. Jason is always hands on and around making sure his instructors are doing their jobs and parents are getting their money's worth. After explaining to him what our goals were, he knew exactly who to pair us with. The first big audition my son had, Jason was there to "oversee" his lessons, audition tape, call back tapes, prepared him to meet with the director and producers- until he booked the role!!! We have not gone anywhere else since! Both my children also play piano, guitar and drums- the instructors are all amazing, so great with kids and make it fun and enjoyable learning at the same time. As a busy mom, I do not always respond and very quickly, however, Jason and Maria are very kind and understanding and have given me so much grace to late payments and late scheduling, I am very grateful- thank you! We have moved, but the school has also expanded to Los Angeles in the San Gabriel area, and we still have gotten even more amazing teachers since the move! The recitals are also always so beautiful and amazing, giving the chance for my kids to share their talents with others. Thank you, Soundscape!! We appreciate you!!!! I highly recommend this music school if you live in Orange County or San Gabriel Valley!!!

As a business owner I want to be clear that this review is not aimed at the teachers who work for…read morethis company. They shine and are professional and fantastic. This is aimed at the owner, Jason Cheng who runs and operates the business. His assertive communication style is regulated on unwavering restrictions that seem to "school" parents. He gives 3 days after submitting an invoice for corrections and then is unwilling to make adjustment He charged us for lessons on Mondays (we are Tuesdays) and after correcting charged us for Xmas Eve and New Years Eve. When I asked to adjust and remove these holidays he "schooled me" that it was past the 3 day limit and then sent me a text as though he was bending over backwards to accommodate us on Nationally registered Holidays. Really? there are more places to have my daughter take music lessons- Be careful as I would advise to steer clear and pay teachers directly!!!! Your management service is not a benefit Jason :)

I can't find enough wonderful words to describe Musika Studio, its team of musicians, and its…read morewonderful teachers. We frequently visit the Mesa Verde Plaza, and since my son recently turned four, I stopped by the studio to ask about their age requirements and recommendations for starting his music journey. They offer piano, drums, guitar and singing lessons as their selection of services. Ms. Sauson, the owner, patiently explained the curriculum and starting age, then offered a complimentary trial lesson to ensure it would be a good fit and that he was ready to begin. They have cameras in all rooms, so parents can sit and watch and listen to the lesson. As an educator and speech pathologist, I watched closely to observe how she engaged my child, her behavior management, reward system, and overall demeanor with young children. Needless to say, I was very impressed by her competence and approach. My son responded beautifully to her guidance, redirection, and positive reinforcements. He has been attending consistently since that trial lesson and is doing wonderfully. I've also met her other staff members and teachers, and you can truly sense that these people genuinely love music and love teaching. It's a fantastic, well-priced music studio in Costa Mesa. I highly recommend checking out Musika Studio if you're looking for a great place for music lessons. They also engage with the community through various events, which is always a bonus when supporting a small business that gives back so much.

This review is for SAOUSAN JARJOUR, who is the studio owner/teacher (who was my daughter's Treble…read moreChoir teacher). Beware of her fake smiles and fake nice voice. Judge her for her actions. Most troubling was Saousan was my daughter's Treble Choir teacher, but she showed zero regards and zero respect for her own student! I am deeply disappointed and upset with the way you handled yesterday's situations, which I lost all trust and respect for you. You did not honor your offers for the trial lessons, and you made it our fault when your teacher did not have the correct sized violin for my daughter. YOU WASTED ALL OF OUR TIMES. It was clear my son's trial classes for drums and guitar were not communicated to Andrew, as Andrew told us he was only scheduled for only one instrument for 30-minutes. While he enjoyed his time with Andrew, my son was sad that he felt rushed for the time having to do 2 instruments in the 30-minute slot, while knowing that his sister received a full 30-minute trial piano lesson, and was also scheduled for another full 30-minutes for trial violin lesson. Only when I asked you about this that you said that we had to pay if we wanted the trial lessons to be longer, which you never communicated in all of our emails exchanges prior. It was clear you made many excuses and you changed the rules whenever it suited you when you could've just taken responsibility for your mistakes. For my daughter's violin trial lesson, Erin told me that she didn't have the correct violin size for my daughter's trial lesson. Then you made it be our fault when you told me that we needed to bring own violin to trial class. Through all of our communication exchanges in writing/emails over 2 weeks, not once did you mention that we were required to bring a violin for her trial class. If you had told us, we would have gladly gotten it for her for her trial. It is beyond absurd for you to even expect any families to bring instruments their child has never played to a trial class, especially not letting them know they had to ahead of time. So my daughter was sad as well as the trial class she had been looking forward to was cancelled. Even through all of this, I still thought of giving you another chance when I told you that I'd like to reschedule the violin trial lesson, but that thought was short lived when you did not to let us leave your studio. You acknowledged that I was upset (because how else was I supposed to feel being treated this way? Certainly not with smiles and gratitude) and I told you I'd call you so my daughter did not have to endure this mess. The mess that you created by not honoring your words for the trial lessons, and for not taking responsibility for not having the correct sized violin. What was most egregious and made us decide never to come back, is when I told you about these issues in passing, and that I would call you at a later time, but you refused to listen, chased us outside your studio leaving your own student, who had private piano lesson WITH YOU at the time (on Tuesday, March 10, 2026 at 4:30pm) in your piano room alone. I would hate to be that child's parent who paid you for their child's private lesson with you because he did not receive the full time for his lesson because you felt entitled to continue to lie to us. You made all of this about yourself and with your long list of excuses. I was clear in that I did not want to discuss things with my daughter next to me, but you refused to have any consideration for her, or listen to my request as the parent/client. Then you further disrespected us with by patronizing us as if money was an issue regarding the violin. It was never about money, it was about wasting my son's time, my daughter time, and our whole family's time. These sequence of events were truly appalling. Learn to listen to your clients. Honor your words. Know that some conversations should be had between adults, without your students around. You owe ALL of the families to whom you serve and their children - YOUR STUDENTS - their time and respect. By your actions of entitlement, you also did a disservice to your own team of teachers, with whom my children would have loved to work with but we refuse to support you and your business. In the parking lot, you begged us for a second chance, but there is absolutely no way that we could trust you to be around and teach our children ever again. Your begging for another chance showed us that you only cared about the money you suddenly realized that you lost. You should've done the math before you offer trial lessons that you won't honor. You should do better, as a person and a professional.
