Posted on darren youngTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've been working with Daniel for almost a year now and I only have great things to say. I joined because my entire life I thought that I was bad at singing and didn't have a loud voice. I joined because it was my goal to sing to my little girl as she grows up. By my second session Daniel helped break that belief for me and now I'm happily singing out loud in public and private for my family. The sessions are fun, funny, and focused on the things you actually need to work on to improve. If you ever believed you were bad at singing, sign up for classes. You'll be happy you did :)Posted on FreNziiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Starting can be terrifying. For me, Dark mountain music changed that to fear into excitement. If you’re looking for some old school “do, re, mi” class, look elsewhere. Seriously kicks ass!! Daniel is the man!Posted on DanielTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Daniel (no relation) is an awesome teacher and I fully recommend Dark Mountain to anyone looking for voice lessons. Daniel knows how to break things down so they make sense, and he keeps things fun while helping you learn. I'm a way better singer than I was a year ago and it's all thanks to Daniel and Dark Mountain!Posted on Ivanna SamanoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Really passionate about music and easy to talk to. Very understanding of your schedule and tries to accommodate you anyhow he can. It’s been a pleasure learning how to play piano under his wing. Looking forward to the future!Posted on Don HuzarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Chancé has been my vocal instructor for about a year and a half. She has been instrumental in my improvement. She is everything a good teacher should be: patient, persistent, positive, and fun. She pushes when she need to push and provides necessary feedback while cheering you on. Lessons have been great and I would recommend her as a vocal coach.Posted on Tiara AndersonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Chancé Snethun is a wonderful teacher. She is incredibly patient with my daughter who has ADHD. I would highly recommend her for voice lessonsPosted on Kristy GoodrowTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our daughter has been working with Chancé for almost a year and we cannot express how thoroughly impressed we have been with her! Our daughter has made significant strides vocally under Chancé’s tutelage. Chancé is knowledgeable, has a great connection with our daughter, and is a wonderful influence. She motivates, encourages and pushes her to expand her abilities while ensuring she continues to have a love to learn. We absolutely cannot recommend Chancé enough!Posted on Anajane AndersonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

faq
Can you accommodate different skill levels, from beginners to advanced players?
Absolutely! At Dark Mountain Music, we’re thrilled to teach students of any age or skill level, whether you’re just starting or a seasoned pro.
Everyone has something to learn! Our aim is to offer personalized instruction for every student, regardless of their skill level. We tailor to YOUR unique learning needs and goals. We see music as a lifelong journey of discovery and growth, and we’re excited to accompany you every step of the way.
Do you offer group bass lessons or only private instruction?
As of now, our school solely focuses on providing private lessons. While we understand there are some benefits to group instruction, we prioritize the individual and find that a tailored lesson plan always provides the best outcomes. This way we can effectively address your specific challenges, refine techniques, and work on the music YOU want to work on. We believe that this personalized approach ensures a more enriching and effective learning experience for our students.
How long will it take for me to play bass guitar well?
The time it takes to become a top-tier bassist can vary and depends on several factors including your natural aptitude for music and the amount of time you dedicate to your practice. With consistent practice and focus, many people can start playing simple bass lines and songs within a couple of months. However, to truly master the instrument, it can take several years of dedicated practice and guidance.
Simply put, you get what you put in! With hard work, dedication, and patience, anyone can steadily progress and achieve their goals.
What is the structure of your lessons? Do you follow a curriculum or customize each lesson?
Our bass lessons are all about having fun and getting inspired while working towards your musical goals. We focus on what you want to learn, not a rigid curriculum. Every lesson is personalized to match your interests, how you learn, and where you’re at skill-wise, keeping you pumped about your progress! Whether you want to jam out to your favourite tunes, improvise, or nail down specific techniques, we’ll craft a plan together to help you succeed.
