It's been a while since I've written a review and I feel compelled to do so for Nikokids…read more My youngest son has been attending Nikolai's class since 5 months old! He is turning 4 in a couple of months and we absolutely adore Nikolai. My son loves his class, naturally gravitates toward him even at a young age. His classes are interactive to both children and caregivers. His philosophy on including adults to join in the singing/dancing with the children during class time is on point with how I feel. The songs/activities are very age and developmentally appropriate to help with speech. It's been a tough year and a half for everyone and Nikolai did everything he could (on line classes, and outdoors classes) to keep things going. While it's not always easy, he always give out a positive vibe in his emails and through his interactions with the children. We wish him the very best! *heart

Since starting actual lessons together I have gained so many new techniques, skills, and understandings that I did not have before to enable me to grow my skills in singing and music theory. She's very thoughtful in her approach to individualize her lessons to your goals and the approach that works best for you, and I personally love how somatic the process is and how knowledgeable Sonia is in not only singing but the intricacies of our anatomy and how it contributes to singing.
