The train up to recitals and concerts is a great program that helps build up students' confidence.

Definitely recommend also for adults who lost their way on an instrument , great place to learn and pick it back up!

I had to update--I wrote it on the wrong spot, Haha!…read more My family and I love Dadan Performing Arts Center! First off, Regine, was/is our first point of contact and she has been very sweet and accommodating since day 1 of me reaching out, our first meeting and every day, till now. Everything my children needed in terms of classes/class scheduling, they've been very helpful and responsive. My children have been wanting to take lessons for a while and although I play instruments myself--life does get hectic and very busy. Plus, I think it's healthy that children learn from a variety of different people to also develop their social skills. We met Mr. James who did our drum consult and he is amazing and super nice! Mr. John also made my kids comfortable the very first time we had a piano consult. Ms. Tiana who is the front desk is super sweet! Mrs. Cynthia is also very nice and informative. My kids admire and have grown comfortable with their teachers. Mr. Jeff who has one of my children for saxophone lessons. Mr.Corey who my other child used to have for drum lessons, but due to scheduling, we are now with Mr. Ruben. Yet, we love them all the same! My children are shy at first, but when they like someone, they want to stick with that someone. I love listening to their practices and I love that my kids enjoy attending their lessons, not only because they are learning the instrument they want to learn, but they also enjoy their teachers. My kids finally get to attend their lessons, because they don't feel so intimidated and they feel welcomed with the nice vibes this music studio has. I'm hoping to include and/or mix lessons around for different instruments my children want to learn in the future with this studio. Hope we stick around for a while! Thanks Dandan for all of your efforts and patience for my family, I appreciate it most for my children :)

It was expensive too in conclusion I really didn't learn much for the price and months I learned more at home in 1 month I regret taking this I'm sorry

My son has been interested in playing piano ever since joining choir at his school. When using Yelp…read moreto look for piano teachers, we stumbled upon Ms Moah Lee's lessons and were drawn to both her extensive experience and flexible style. Plus, she offered a first complimentary lesson for us to see if it would be a good fit! She was so easy to communicate with and upon meeting her for the first time at her place, my kiddo lit up and was so excited to sit in front of a real piano and play for the first time! She made his very first lesson and very first experience with piano fun and easy, warm and inviting and he immediately asked to come back. In fact, he had so much fun during his first lesson, he asked me to draw him a picture of piano keys to keep practicing since we hadn't even bought a piano yet! Her rates are great and totally worth the value of the class. She also will travel for additional fee but I make the extra trek to go to her for our lessons so that my son can truly focus in an environment that feels warm and inviting. I've already recommended Ms Moah to several of our friends looking for piano lessons! Whatever your piano goals are, she is a great teacher for all ages!

He is thriving and next week he will begin vocal lessons as well. Jim is attentive to each student and pushes my son to do his best. He has been a resource to our family in picking the right instruments for our son and his professional guidance has been a blessing. We would definitely recommend Jim as a music instructor and we look forward to the relationship growing as we move forward.

There are few people in this world that have his level of talent in all three of these areas. He can figure out just about any song, and he has been amazing in helping me develop as a musician/singer. The guy is a badass and he can hear stuff and make suggestions that really make a huge difference in creating a song, or making a cover song more interesting, beautiful and sonically spot on. Jim is a great friend and mentor, and I can't imagine a better teacher for me, as we are on the same page when it comes to working on what sounds good in my originals and covers that I play. He is a musician, but he listens like the audience.

I stopped lessons a while ago due to my own scheduling conflicts, but I still hope to restart one day--I miss working with her! Shari is not only highly trained professional vocal coach but also an all-around wonderful person. She has a unique ability to connect with her students, no matter their skill level. Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced singer, Shari meets you where you are and helps you grow in ways you didn't think possible. Her lessons are thoughtfully tailored to your goals, style, and voice, and the improvements I saw in my singing were incredible - several of my friends even commented on it. Shari's guidance had such a noticeable impact on the quality of my voice, and every session with her was the highlight of my week. She's patient, supportive, and so encouraging. If you're looking for a vocal coach who is knowledgeable, approachable, and passionate about singing and vocal performance, Shari is the one. I cannot recommend her enough!

She's also very kind and patient, she treats my daughter like a colleague, not a kid. We love her, you will too!

Our daughter has been taking one-on-one private piano lessons with Mrs. Masako for more than 4 years now. She has grown so much in her piano and music skills and we are so proud of her efforts and progress. During the shelter-in-place government order, we were able to convert our in-person classes to online classes from home for the safety of our community. So far it has been no problem at all and Mrs. Masako has been very accomodating with the transitions and changes. We are happy that our daughter is still able to continue with her piano lessons during this difficult time. Thank you Mrs. Masako and her team for providing an excellent music educational service. I highly recommend her and her staff to everyone who is considering an outstanding music education for their children, friends and family. Thank you, Exchael Eva's Mom
