We love Children's Music Academy! Two of my daughters have graduated out of the CMA program and I…read moreplan on enrolling my five year old daughter in the fall. The music instruction is gentle and fun yet very thorough and comprehensive. My girls have learned to read music and write their own original compositions. In additon to piano instruction, they have also learned to play the recorder, a little bit of guitar, and use various percussion instruments in group ensembles. Over the past four years my girls have learned to play the piano beautifully and it is such a joy to hear their music throughout our home. Music will definitely be a life-long love for our family. Thank you CMA!

His pricing is FAIR and my alto saxophone plays like it's BRAND NEW AGAIN. You can always trust Patrick with your musical repairs and needs.

Will be returning to you every 3 months for touch ups :) I will be bringing in my Yani very soon!

Tried their ukuleles and had fun learning tricks on strumming. I'm a new Ukulele player and don't use picks normally but wanted to have some on hand for days when I want to strum loudly or when my fingers are too sore. A week later I came back in and brought my favorite ukulele to show them and play for them. Had so much fun there. They made me feel like family!

Connie Mason who is the owner of Paradise Music is really a great teacher. I have done some voice…read moreclasses with her as I work on getting my harmonizing skills to be better. She has a super positive attitude which makes my voice lessons fun and productive. Connie's most common students are learning piano/keyboard. I've watched her with children and she is excellent at keeping them interested in their work. I tutor kids myself, I can say she's really good at communicating and encouraging children. She teaches a lot of kids but I see adults there as well. One thing I really like to do is go to the recitals she hosts. At these recitals she allows the opportunity for her students to perform for an audience of parents, friends and peers. I've actually played my violin at one of the recitals and she allowed me to bring a bunch of friends so we could make up a band! For singing and piano lessons, I totally recommend Paradise Music Academy!

I sought out Laurel for my high school daughter's senior spring musical where she was playing…read moreDorothy in Wizard of Oz. Having received professional vocal training for high school, college and community productions earlier in my life proved invaluable, and I wanted my daughter to have a similar experience and really learn the technique, discipline and *joy* of effective performing/singing. Laurel was incredible- not only was my daughter sounding stronger and better within a day of her first lesson, Laurel taught her some hacks for how to deliver on those high notes that usually require head voice, how to handle diphthongs and so much more. Her approach is joyful and fun and this - coupled with her experience and getting actual noticeable results- made my daughter excited for each lesson. My daughter is now "show ready", thanks to Laurel. We cannot recommend her enough.

I'm FROM oxnard and have been coming here since I was a teen, and have never met such a clueless, useless, and high idiot as I did this time. Guy with long hair and tattoos was more stoned than I've ever seen someone on the clock, even worse than a dispensary. Couldn't find the guitar on the wall in the back, forgot what he was doing twice in the process, and had trouble forming whole sentences. I watched someone steal at least $70 worth of shit and said nothing because of this foolish man-child's attitude. You'd be better off trying out what you want here then buying online elsewhere or at a better store, not worth the hassle or the upcharge.

I think she's one of the owners and walked me through the store and explained all sorts of classes they offer. I'm interested in Tahitian workshop that they newly added and once I figure out my schedule I would love to join the class. She explained that all the instructors are very culturally correct and that's very important to me when it comes to learning. The floor has a pretty large space enough for probably 10-15 students to dance in. I would love to watch the drumming as well. As for the Tahitian class, I was told that they have anywhere from 5-10 drummers and that's very exciting! I can't wait to see/hear it soon! I parked in the next block but I saw plenty of street parking and it's right on Main St. and was easy to find. It totally took me instantly back to my Burning Man experiences...can't wait till that either...
