He makes sessions fun and engaging, and it is something that Tyler looks forward to every week. Josh also is really good about communicating with Tyler's teachers to make sure he's supporting his learning in the best way possible. I highly recommend him and Beyond Bored if you are seeking help with your own kid's learning.

I have been taking lessons from Liz for many years. I had studied piano seriously between 7-13…read moreyears old, and decided in my 40s thay I missed playing, and wanted to see if I could still improve. I was fortunate to have very high-calibre teachers when I was a kid, so I knew there are many different levels of teachers out there. I was determined to find a teacher who could challenge me, and really help me to expand my musical horizons. Liz is an exceptional teacher. She has a lifetime of experience teaching, and sets the highest standards for herself and for her students. Her first question upon meeting her was what my goals were. She will tailor a program to inspire and empower you to do whatever you would like with the piano, as long as you are willing to put in the time and effort. My time with her has been such a blessing and I cannot recommend her highly enough. I encourage you to make an appointment to meet her and see for yourself.

This class is located inside the Hudson Theater. (Hudson guild-43 seats)…read more It's really the acting class of dreams in a sense. If you're working on something, you can put it up. If you're auditioning for something, you can do that as well. You put up your scenes, you get great critiques, come back and bring it up again, sometimes it's an option and sometimes you just have to bring it back. Rob is the secret ingredient, he truly cares about actors. He will not give up on you until you get it. I've learned a tremendous deal from him and you will too. Class size never gets outrageously big so if you want to work that day, more often than not, you will. They have a great system you sign up in advance to put up your work. There's a cafe next door for snacks when you get hungry. Street parking.

I submitted my answers & was picked a winner from a raffle of all those who guessed the correct answers. Of course, for those enrolling as regular students, there are tuition fees.

There are also different levels of Sake Sommelier classes for those who are deeply interested in delving into the complex world of Sake for either connaisseurship or for a serious job in the restaurant industry. Sake is becoming popular to the point it is found not only in Japanese restaurants, but also other East Asian restaurants as well as New American which is becoming ever so experimental. My Sake Advisor class was from 9am to 4pm w/ a 50 minute lunch break. It was held at the nearby Sushi Institute of America which is on the edge of Little Tokyo, DTLA. Instructor Master Sakè Sommelier Mr.Toshio Ueno was entertaining, informative, ultra-knowledgeable, well organized, insightful, intuitive on the needs of the students who attended. There was plenty to learn about the brewing of Sake, but it was punctuated by our being able to sample the various grades & style of Sake to get hands on experience on how different techniques can create Sake that is different in taste, texture, finish, bouquet, etc. The 7 hours of Sake Advisor class went very quickly, and raised my consciousness in knowing more about the Sake universe. 5+ Yelp stars.
