Manuel Creative Arts Academy

Ms. Katie is a true treasure. She cares about my kids and goes out of her way to tailor the classes to their respective interests. They have both so much enjoyed taking piano and music with her. She makes it all so fun for them and they feel naturally motivated to practice on their own! We feel lucky to have her as our kids' piano teacher.

My daughter has been taking voice lessons with Josh for a few years now, and her singing has great improved. Josh is an excellent teacher and really seems to care about his students' success. When the pandemic started, he was quick to establish a safe, virtual alternative to in-person lessons. My daughter continues to feel supported and challenged with her lessons. Great school!

Great fit for my son. I think what I appreciate most is how Josh has adapted his teaching style as my son has grown to fit his changing needs and interests. So much support and flexibility. Could not be more pleased with how Josh has helped my son expand his interests and develop his talents.

My first lesson so take it for what it's worth. However, it was good enough that I'm going back for more. The trainer in question (Josh) was really amiable and has classical training, something that, for me, was a high point even though the style I aspire to isn't classical. But I def want longevity and strength and that plays a big part in classical training as far as I know.

It was easy to click on the emailed link and get into the "class" with him over internet and from there it just flowed without hiccups. An hour passed really quickly but he def optimized my time and I was all ears. The first lesson was an introduction to singing with a lot of food for thought thankfully. We did one small singing exercise that was quite revealing and interesting.

I won't say which so it doesn't spoil it for others, but as long as you know that you do get to do a little bit of it right from the get go. Looking forward to my next lesson.

Manuel Creative Arts Academy has demonstrated an ability to work around the pandemic and still provide a high level of value to the student. The only thing that changed was the location - via Zoom versus in person. My son is learning and enjoying his voice lessons.

Bethany Rose is a wonderful violin instructor and instilled in our son both musical knowledge and appreciation.

Honestly, this is not somewhere I would have thought to go on my own. I love to sing, but never really thought about doing anything with it. Long drawn out story later, my best friend got me some lessons here. I know it is horribly overused as a statement, but the lessons here really have been life-changing. I was at a pretty low point prior to starting lessons here, but I immediately felt welcome.

The owner (Josh) immediately focused on what MY goals were, and how to help me reach those. Four months ago, I had pretty much no confidence in my singing abilities. Now, while I know I am certainly no Schubert or Celine Dion, but my skills and confidence have grown ten times over. I am attempting music now that I previously would never have dared to touch, and learning how to read music at the same time.

These folks know their business, and they are good at at. No matter your level of skill (Or lack thereof in my case) you will leave every lesson having not only learned something, but having had fun doing it too.

Manuel Creative Arts Academy makes private music lessons convenient by coming to my child’s school. Lessons are meaningful and productive. As parents, we receive an email after each session letting us know what the lesson included and how our child did. Thank you Manuel, for providing fun, reasonable lessons for our children!

I love the notes the teacher sends us after each session to tell how our son is doing with his piano lessons. I also love the fact that they go to his school and so we don’t have to drive him anywhere. It’s great!!

They do a great job, and I love that they will come to my house for private lessons!

Committed to high quality individualized lessons. Amazing people!

We've been very pleased with the instruction my five-year-old has received. He has worked with several teachers at Manuel and has spoken highly of all of them.
