Brian is hands-down one of the best vocal coaches out there. He really understands the anatomy and…read morescience behind singing, and he explains what's happening in your body in a way that makes it easy to understand and recreate on your own. He's not cheap, but he's absolutely worth it if you want to learn efficiently instead of spending money on endless lessons that don't move the needle. I've been learning from him for almost a year, and I've learned so much more in that time than I did in four years at another studio. Thanks Brian!!

A little update here on yelp. It's only been four lessons, but I just wanted to take a moment to…read moreappreciate you by saying thank you very much for doing what you do!!! Music has always been there for me through many difficult parts of my life, but I've always felt like there was this gap between music and I that I could never close. I never felt like I had any talent to immerse myself, or further myself in it. Always just singing to myself, or when I'm alone, because that's the only time I have the courage to explore my voice. I have to say I've never felt this great singing before and it's only been four lessons. This year for me is big on self investment and rediscovering myself and where my interests/passion lies. You've gotta take some risks in life sometimes and taking a chance on vocal lessons with you has been by far one of the best decisions I've made in a while!. I'm still super stoked and I'm looking forward to what's to come!! Thanks voice dad!

Seeing Sarah weekly is truly one of the few things I look forward to doing every week. She is…read moreawesome! I wanted to take voice lessons as a hobby and found Sarah using Yelp. I have been seeing her for almost 2 months now and I have noticed progress in my singing and have been having fun while doing so. I have learned a lot about how to use your voice as an instrument. So if you are looking for a voice teacher, you should definitely see Sarah!

Sarah is the best! I came to her for help with my background vocal ability. I'm a touring…read moreside-musician and have worked for many decades on top-level tours. I've always sang background vocals, but was lacking in technique. I've taken lessons with other vocal teachers, but found them to give one-size-fits-all warm ups, without much explanation of why I was doing them. Sarah tailored exercises to my needs and has a deep understanding of the physiology of the voice which really helped me understand the mechanics of how the voice works. After just a few weeks, I'm singing more solidly, with more range and no strain. I just finished an intense round of rehearsals and had zero voice fatigue, what a difference!

I'm an actor currently based in New York, but I work with Paloma in LA as well, and she has helped…read moremy acting career tremendously. From mastering cadence and vocal technique to helping me find and replicate the voice of Malcolm X, she has an incredible understanding of the actor's instrument. She stays true to the fundamentals while bringing a real sensitivity to artistry, finding innovative ways to help you discover breath, voice, rhythm, and use your instrument to its fullest ability. I recently wrapped a TV show, have a Netflix film coming out next month, and we literally just finished another session today preparing for what's next. I'm grateful to have Paloma on my team, and anyone who gets to work with her is blessed to have her on theirs.

Even though practicing doesn't always come easily for her, Mrs. Chin is incredibly patient, makes lessons fun, and knows how to encourage and celebrate her progress. I also started guitar lessons with Mr. Miyashiro last year. He takes the time to listen to my goals, makes learning enjoyable, and always encourages me to keep improving. We truly appreciate their passion for music and their dedication to helping students of all ages grow. Highly recommend this studio!

The lessons are taught at her home but she has two beautifully appointed studios separated from the residence providing a distraction free one on one instruction. She has also partnered with a guitar instructor offering lessons. The area just outside of the studio is a beautiful deck with pretty good views of highland park with comfy chairs (and within earshot of the lessons) which makes it fun to hear the progress of my kiddos. At the end of each "semester" she holds a recital with the students which I find pretty darn cute but also very entertaining. You will not find a more enthusiastic and positive instructor that truly cares for her students and their progress in music.

She figured out what I was doing almost immediately and never once made me feel dumb about it. She just went, okay, here's what's happening, let's fix it. What I appreciate most is that she actually coaches. She's not just running you through scales and calling it a lesson. She catches the one thing that's costing you and gives you something specific to work on, and she's encouraging the whole way through without it feeling fake. When something isn't there yet, she says so. When you finally land it, she's genuinely hyped for you. The biggest difference is how much less like work singing feels now. Stuff I used to muscle through I can just sing. No straining, no bracing for it. If you're grinding your voice down and can't figure out why, go see her.

He is by far the most talented, approachable, and genuinely passionate coach I've had. In addition to having a beautiful voice, his knowledge of music and vocal technique spans multiple genres, and he explains concepts in a way that's clear and easy to understand. He adapts his teaching style to how you learn. In my case, he uses visuals and videos to break down how the voice works while emphasizing healthy technique. He quickly understands your voice, identifies areas for improvement, and still gives you the freedom to choose what you want to focus on during each lesson. I'd recommend him to anyone, whether you're just starting out or already have experience and are looking to refine your style or develop more advanced skills!
