Hollywood Academy of Music and Arts

My daughter took piano lessons here in early 2025. I authorized them to draft my bank account for the lessons. She left LA at the end of March, and told them that she would not be taking any more lessons, and to stop drafting our account. Despite this, they drafted my checking account in April, May and July for a total of over $1200. I emailed and left voicemails several times for them, asking them to contact me to resolve this issue and get a refund. My daughter actually spoke to them once on the phone and they told her that they would contact me- STILL NO RESPONSE. When a customer tells you to stop drafting their bank and you keep doing it, that's stealing. It's obvious that this place cares about one thing only, MONEY! If you take lessons here DO NOT allow them draft your bank account.

Amazing music school! Both my kids just started getting lessons from HAMA instructors via online and both learned so much within one class. Instructors are incredibly nice and patient. Everyone working at HAMA are also incredibly helpful, kind, and fast at responding emails. My children are very exited to continue learning from HAMA.

I have been taking guitar and voice classes at the Hollywood Academy since 2020, when I picked up music as a COVID hobby. Starting off online, I was skeptical about what would come out of my music lessons but the patience of my instructors, Andrew and Selena, put me at ease. Fast forward two years, my classes are the highlight of my week! The staff here are courteous, friendly, and just create a really positive vibe in the space - starting from the front desk that has never been anything less than amazeballs, to my teachers who are not just great teachers, but insanely talented musicians. The school itself has always been flexible with me regarding scheduling and I’ve aways been able to receive make ups (when I ask to reschedule my class on time). I am currently writing my own song with Selena and so can’t wait to record it. Pro tip for anyone considering the school - they have their own recording space that you can use during class to actually record what you’re working on and learn the most important tools too. Beyond grateful to everyone here for the fantastic work they do and for giving me a new amazing hobby which has turned into a passion.

This is a fantastic school with a wide variety of quality instructors and classes.The school provides classes for both children and adults.The staff are incredibly friendly and encouraging. Ms.Regina,the director, has greatly helped and improved my son’s piano skills.Hollywood Art Academy has exceeded our family expectations! If I am not wrong ,two years ago we were just looking for a music school to take our 12 and 9 old boys to music classes. We picked this school simply because it was close to our house. However, we have been pleasantly surprised on how professional, loving and talented they are! Our sons love the classes and look forward to them every week. This place has definitely inspire theirs skills in so many ways! I would also highlight how respectful and sensitive they have been during these past difficult months. Thank you Henry! I appreciate for your hardworking! My sons have not stopped creating music for one day despite the situation we are living thanks to the school and Ms. Regina theirs amazing teacher that inspires them everyday. I highly recommend this place for anyone who wants to learn deeply.

I'm an adult student. Taking piano classes in Hollywood Academy Of Music and Arts for 5 years now. Never played piano before. Now I can perform classical compositions by J. Bach which are relatively complex. My teacher is Regina and she is awesome! She is very knowledgeable, passionate about music, patient with me. Regina keeps lessons interesting, finds new partitures that are fun and adequately difficult for my level. She is also very accommodating in case I need to reschedule a class. If you looking for piano tutor for yourself or your kids - this school is the best school you can find!
