They say "Those that can't do, teach," but nothing could be further from the truth about Kelli…read moreJames. Kelli didn't simply decide one day she knew something about performing and hang a shingle. She has the bona fides of a career at the top of the entertainment industry, most notably as the first American Eponine in the original Broadway production of Les Miserables. She also starred in the first national tours of Evita and Aspects of Love; in addition, she has sung on some of the world's greatest concert stages, from Toronto to Munich to London's Royal Albert Hall. Any singer looking to learn from the best need look no further than Kelli James. She has the track record to prove it.

I had the pleasure of working with, conducting for, and accompanying Kelli for four years as her…read moremusic director on one of her many National Broadway tours. I saw first hand her level of professionalism and her working knowledge of surviving in show business, more importantly, how to survive 8 shows a week of high modern-aged belting. In the years since, I have encountered (auditions or on stage) several of Kelli's students and been thorough amazed. They display great poise, investment in their craft, and in some, a greater depth of feeling than their young years should provide. Several are working professionally. One just closed in a starring role on Broadway. Everyone has a voice. If that were enough, the stars would fill the airwaves. Unfortunately, getting from studio to the stage door entrance takes hard work and frankly, a great deal of insider knowledge. Whether you're an adult looking for a refresher or a student (or parent of one) who may have a dream or ambition, you will benefit from studying with Kelli. In fact, you'll have The Advantage.

The teachers are passionate, motivated, and very knowledgeable. Kat herself is the most caring and charismatic person I have ever met! She is overflowing with talent and knowledge about music and art. In addition she offers kindness and support to ALL her students. The music facilities are super clean and child friendly! There are always happy kids coming in and out of lessons. Plus there are so many different types of classes offered, I wish Kats Artist Tree was around when I was a kid! The best part is the different classes share their work. Through performances and presentations that highlight what was learned and improved upon, from children to adults. Voice lessons are always fun because you have the opportunity to sing in front of an audience.

My son was interested in drawing so we enrolled him in a group drawing class. I thought they might…read moreteach him some skills or different drawing techniques but it really was just him sitting in a classroom drawing next to other children. This may be helpful if your child doesn't have time to draw but for any blossoming artist who spends hours of their own time sitting and drawing there isn't any value to this time at Kat's verses being at home. I'm not sure the "teacher" has any sort of special training; actually i don't think I ever even saw the teacher or had any feedback from him/her(?) in the 4 months we attended. During this time I saw no change in skill or ability from this class. He didn't particularly enjoy it either. It seemed that the front desk assistant frequently taught the class which started late and ended early regularly. My son benefited from the Young Rembrandt's program at his school more than this program and YR, for the most part, just taught him how to shade. So the bar wasn't set extremely high. This school also requires a registration fee ($60) to even try any of the classes and also requires a credit card on file which they cannot update except in person. There isn't any online account management.. They don't allow for over the phone changes and their withdrawal policy is also very strict so we ended up paying for a month we didn't want. They also sent my credit card information entire number, expiration date, ccv code, address and full name (!) in clear text VIA EMAIL unencrypted which is very very horrendous security policy for a company who requires this information be provided. They are not obviously not PCI compliant so I'd be wary of providing them this information. They aren't particularly nice or friendly either. We won't be back.

Truth be told - I think we almost prefer the convenience of the in home lessons. Great job Arik and Kurt - we are happy to support your business. Thanks for all you do for the kids!

It's 12/23/2014 - almost 5 months to the date since I posted my Yelp review of Phoenix Music…read moreLessons -(and months passed since I had attempted to solicit feedback from the owner of Phoenix Music Lessons). TODAY - I am contacted with an explanation that "I honestly thought you were probably a good person but I felt a dislike towards me right away. That energy was truly difficult for me to deal with." His "concerned" response concluded with this: "PS. I once had a doctor do surgery on my knee. I really disliked him (really this guy was a jerk) but I knew he was an expert..... My knee works great again. :)" Since 12/23/2014 (again five months after my initial review) - the Owner has contacted me several times via personal email 3-4 and 1x telephone (actually left a message) - surreptitiously attempting to convince me to edit/delete or otherwise alter my review. I find the Owner's contact inappropriate and borderline harassing. I rejected his offers of a refund as that is not the intent of my review - rather to advise others of my experience. The Owner provided a service- and was compensated for his service. My opinion is this Owner does not take kindly to those with opposing/differing views. Unprofessional and inappropriate boundaries.

I found Michael Daniel to not only be a good voice teacher but a great coach. When I first started…read morewith Michael I had potential and his no nonsense style coaching of vocal drills led me to knowing exactly what to do at home to keep getting better. While it's true many tools can be found on Youtube, Michael gives you in the moment feedback to ensure you are practicing correctly and developing powerful, useful habits. Using his tools and guidance, I made great progress that led to my first recording for a personalized affirmation song client who paid over $1000 for a song. Our voices are our instruments as a vocalist and after combining what I learned from Michael Daniel with opening my body through yoga and learning to ground myself better...my voice really took off. Applying what I learned from Michael, I've had the confidence to sing in front of over 1000 people at once, sing at house concerts and start a personalized affirmation song service. Michael may not seem like your sunshine and flowers teacher per some of the other reviews BUT if you're serious about practice and advancing yourself, Michael Daniel can get you a long way. Also, if your first session is much spent reviewing an action plan, consider sticking with it. Good things come to those who focus on the principals of success and I found Daniel to do so with what he teaches in lesson.
