My daughter (age 8) has been taking piano lessons at the DaVinci Center for 2 years. It's truly the best investment we've made for her. She loves piano and loves her teacher, Maria! The Creations Conert, local gigs and the Multiple Piano Festival are icing on the cake! Maria is an outstanding teacher, patient, kind, very very talented, organized, and knows how to connect with the kids. We are so lucky to have The DaVinci school in our community!!

If you're anything like me, you get frustrated and stuck trying to learn everything you want to learn off of YouTube and other tutorials alone. Finding the right teacher who can answer questions in real time can also feel somewhat challenging. That's where Jay comes in! Not only is Jay a phenomenal artist, but he is a phenomenal teacher. He is extremely knowledgeable, clear, and patient. After even just one lesson, one can expect to walk away feeling revitalized and inspired to continue forward with their music and ideas. I cannot stress enough how worth it signing up for lessons will feel!!! 10 out of 10 stars

After meeting Suzanne when she was a substitute teacher for my choir, I knew that she was the best person to come to for guidance on vocal technique and artistry. With a focus on classical and jazz vocals (among others), Suzanne provided me with training in diverse genres and styles. Her initial focus on technical skills and breathing allows Suzanne to ensure that you will reach your full vocal potential. Because of her, I was able to successfully audition for and participate in several auditioned choirs, including Cherry Creek High School’s Girls’ 21 and Colorado All-State Choir two years in a row. It must be noted that Suzanne truly inspired me both in the realm of voice but also in how to approach life. Suzanne is one of the most personable, approachable, and kind humans I know. She is an extraordinary teacher and guide, and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking to enhance their vocal music skills in a heartbeat.
