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!
She is a very amazing teacher and very patienceful as well. Its fun learning with you and I am looking forward to more!!
Kyra was very patient with my 10 year old daughter. She can't wait until the next lesson!
