I just had my first class with Kyra and I'm so happy! I was terribly nervous but Kyra made the lesson easy and fun. So I got more relaxed and she said I was making a lot of progress. Looking forward to our next class!
My daughter had a great time and enjoyed her 1st singing lesson with Kyra. She's already excited for her next lesson!
Kyra is a fantastic teacher! She is incredibly knowledgeable and kind, and made me feel comfortable from the first lesson. I have been singing for 8 years and have never felt better (vocally) since my lessons with Kyra. Looking forward to many more lessons in the future!
