My son continues to excel with his voice and piano technique plus he enjoys performing so it was a huge confidence boost to start at such a young age. Since then, my daughter started voice lessons also. She was just three years old and would sit on the floor coloring during my son's lessons. Little did I know how much she was absorbing and now she is 12 and loves singing thanks to Chaz noticing her aptitude for singing too. Chaz is professional, dedicated, caring and personable. He is very talented as a a teacher and focuses on every detail. He really understands how important it is for his students to comprehend the theory of music and this has really given my kids a deeper understanding and appreciation of music overall. We are so fortunate to have Chaz as our kid's teacher.

I was a nanny for two kids, ages 5 and 7, in South Pasadena who attended piano lessons with Ms…read more Shauna once a week. Ms. Shauna is such an excellent teacher, full of life, fun, and games all while having the right amount of seriousness. When I first started watching the kids, I had only taken one year of piano when I was 11 and was never able to grasp how to read music. I was pretty confused on what the kids were practicing and if they were practicing right during the week (which sometimes they weren't) and I was not able to correct them to help progress them with the skills that Ms. Shauna had already placed. Once I expressed this concern of mine to her, she started having me sit right next to them on the bench and watch them sight read and play their pieces. BAM! Within 3 weeks I was able to read music, it's like my confused 11 year old self all of a sudden understood it. She took it from a completely different angle teaching through intervals rather than just trying to memorize what each note was. Once that was in place, the kids were really able to excel because really a lot of learning any instrument is the daily practice and if the person establishing that routine doesn't know a thing about what you are doing, how can you really grasp it. Ms. Shauna is willing to go above and beyond to answer questions and gives each kid the individual help that they need. One of the kids that I worked with had a really difficult time sitting still and she worked with him and gave him fun games to play (like a birdie chart, where he would collect bird stickers for good practicing, sight reading, etc and then when they were all filled he would get a prize). I was pregnant during my length of time with the family, so no longer see Ms. Shauna on a regular basis, but if I am still in the area when my daughter is old enough, we will definitely be taking her to her for her piano lessons! I would highly recommend Ms. Shauna if you are wanting your kids to have an environment where music is highly valued, kids excel quickly and structure and fun are put into place.

The always easy going and in a good mood Miss Ellen treats every child with cheerful respect. Her classes engage the children at their own level. I have had fun watching my son go from being shy at the start of the "semester" to now being a much more active participant. It's great to expose the little ones to music from around the world. I myself have enjoyed learning what songs children in South Africa, South America, Japan and Europe (to name a few) sing. There are some classic Euro/American songs in there too. Miss Ellen's classes are a great way to meet your child at their level for 45 minutes. I loved being able to shut everything else out and share music with my son knowing that it was enriching for him.

She went from cautious observer to active participant and it was a true joy to watch her over the course of her classes. Miss Ellen provides a safe, fun environment for the kids and is extremely sensitive to each child's unique development and temperament. She allows the kids to engage at their own pace and lets them explore, experiment, and learn without rules or judgement. Because I'm a work-from-home mom, it was nice to have a regularly scheduled class where my daughter could be around other kids and parents/caregivers. I believe it helped her feel confident in a group environment. I highly recommend Miss Ellen!

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!

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.

As for the piano classes, after 6 months of piano at a traditional school she still had not learned the notes or much of anything, after 2 classes with Fawn she is now reading notes and playing songs off the book and she couldn't be happier.

She immediately saw some bad habits I'd developed, and soon got me on the path to singing properly, in tune, and following a melody. Previously, I'd pretty much been that rock guy that barks his way through a song. The improvements have been immediate and have stuck. I still have that edge, too, though. I have also taken piano and songwriting lessons with her, and she excels in those areas, as well. I learned more from her breaking down one of my lyrics than I did in years elsewhere. A phenomenal teacher and music guru.
