VOICE LESSONS IN PASADENA

(AGES 5 AND UP)

Learn to sing the songs you love. Voice lessons at PASADENA MUSIC ACADEMY focus primarily on popular music from genres like rock, pop, country, jazz, gospel and R&B. Each week, students are led through physical exercises to improve their vocal range, ear training, breath control, enunciation, and more. By building lesson plans around the aspirations of each individual student, we ensure that every session brings them closer to their goals. We also offer coaching for professional or aspiring TV and radio personalities who want to strengthen their speaking voices. 

BEGINNER VOICE LESSONS

Start your child on a journey that will bring them confidence and a passion for music. Our students jump right in, learning to sing the songs they already love from the world of rock, pop, country, jazz, gospel, R&B, and beyond. Our instructors strive to make each lesson an encouraging and positive experience by incorporating our students’ favorite songs and styles into their lesson plans. It has always been our philosophy that when learning is fun and engaging, students are more likely to excel and enjoy practicing. Our students and parents LOVE our Level Up Music Achievement program, which structures the learning process in achievable small steps that can be measured from day one. Our students feel more motivated earning stickers, wristbands and certificates!

INTERMEDIATE AND ADVANCED VOICE LESSONS

Whether you’re self taught, learned at another school, or have risen through our own program, our instructors are ready to help find the next step of your musical journey. Students at this level focus on advanced techniques and engage with more demanding pieces. By pushing and expanding the limits of our students’ abilities we can help develop their skills and creativity to new levels. If you’re looking to develop a new style, prepare for a competition or college audition, or just keep learning for your own enjoyment, our instructors can help you reach your goals.

My boy has been taking lessons at PMA since 2024 and he's learning and his instrumental skills improve so much. His drum teacher is Ardem and guitar teacher is Tracy. Both of Tracy and Ardem are the best, talented, patience, fun with kids and first time learners. My boy built up strong musical foundation thanks to them!

Only good things at PMA! My daughter began taking lessons in the late spring with Marcella and has made such tremendous progress, not only with her vocals but also stage presence and performance. A few weeks into lessons, Marcella recommended my daughter sign up for the recital. On the day of the recital our family was shocked at the progress made - she received a standing ovation! All thanks to Marcella! My daughter really enjoys having her as a vocal coach/instructor and looks forward to each session. She's patient, engaging and has built up my daughter's confidence, all while teaching technique, developing vocal skills. The front desk at PMA are also incredibly helpful and easy to contact, whether by phone, text or email. I appreciate how easy it is to book makeup lessons and change schedules online. My daughter also enjoys seeing Marcella's feedback and thoughtful comments posted after each lesson.

We've had an amazing experience at PMA! Ardem has been an incredible drum teacher--patient, encouraging, and inspiring. Our son has grown so much as a drummer and genuinely looks forward to every lesson. We're grateful for everything Ardem and the PMA team have done and highly recommend them to anyone looking for great music instruction.

I started my daughter at PMA on the recommendation of a friend who is a musician, and we have been so happy with our experience there! My daughter has been taking voice lessons with Ms. Kris for a few months now, and she absolutely loves them. From the moment she walked out of her first lesson, my daughter was begging to keep taking lessons with her. My daughter didn't even want to skip her lesson on her birthday, and that says a lot. What more could you want as a parent?

My son LOVES his teacher, Daniel. He's a grumpy 13 year old boy, but he lights up when he sees Daniel. He's learning to love and enjoy Piano. This school is great at communication, scheduling make-ups, etc. We are very happy here.

My daughter has been taking drum lessons for 3 months now and it's been amazing. Her primary teacher is Lucas but she has had a substitute when he's not available. School is very communicative and detailed with changes; how long and what options we have. The front desk staff are helpful with making schedule adjustments since the website isn't as easy to navigate; you have to actively commit to canceling a class before you can reschedule. Overall, great school for kids wanting to get introduced to playing musical instruments.

PMA has been excellent for my 5 year old who is taking drum lessons. Its a very professional, yet relaxed and friendly environment. The front of house is very organized and friendly as well. Gibb is our son's instructor and he has been so good at working with a 5 year old. He makes the lessons kid friendly and interesting, and knows how to keep his attention which can be hard with such a young child. I would highly recommend.

Great music school and teachers. I'm an adult taking lessons for the first time and feel very comfortable doing so. The recitals are well done and they focus on making the students feel at ease.

Why Choose Pasadena Music Academy for Voice Lessons?

Voice Instructors Who Know How to Bring Out Your Best

At Pasadena Music Academy, our voice teachers are more than just trained singers—they’re compassionate educators who know how to tailor each lesson to your voice and goals. Whether you’re learning pitch and breath control, preparing for a role, or building confidence as a vocalist, your lesson will be shaped around your unique needs. We work with kids, teens, and adults across a wide range of genres.

And if others in your family want to join in, we also offer lessons in piano, guitar, drums, DJ, music production, violin, flute, clarinet, trumpet, trombone, saxophone, bass, and ukulele.

Level Up: A Structured Path to Progress

To keep students motivated, we offer a free, nationally recognized program that allows vocalists to track their musical growth. The Level Up program includes ten stages of advancement, with each level marked by a new wristband, certificate, and sticker. It’s a fun, structured way to stay inspired and celebrate progress.

Life Happens, So We Make Rescheduling Easy

We understand that life is unpredictable, especially for families with young kids. That’s why we offer as many makeup lessons as you need. You can cancel or reschedule through our student portal at any time. If you’d prefer help, our front desk team is just a call or email away.

Performance Opportunities in a Real Venue

Live performances are an essential part of musical growth. That’s why we invite all students to perform twice per year at Boston Court Pasadena. It’s more than a recital—it’s a confidence-building experience that encourages goal setting, celebrates progress, and creates lasting memories on stage.

A Comfortable Place to Learn and Grow

Our school is designed for comfort and convenience. Parents can enjoy our cozy lounge while students are in their lessons. Amenities include: 

  • Free coffee, tea, and water 
  • Wi-Fi and magazines to pass the time
  • A massage pillow and device charging stations
  • Coloring books for children

Free parking is available right out front, so you never have to stress about parking.

Month-to-Month Lessons With No Strings Attached

There’s no need to commit to a long-term contract. All voice lessons are offered on a month-to-month basis, giving families the flexibility to continue as long as it fits their schedule.

Proven Results Backed by Happy Families

For more than 10 years, our academy has earned the trust of hundreds of families across Pasadena. We’re proud of the consistent praise we receive on Google and Yelp, reflecting the quality of our voice instruction and student care.

We Put Safety First in Every Room

We take safety seriously. Every teacher and staff member passes a background check. All teaching rooms are equipped with security cameras that store footage for a period of two months. Observation windows are built into all rooms (except for our soundproof drum studios), and parents and caregivers are always welcome to observe their child’s lesson.

Picture Day for Students of All Ages

Each year, we hold a free picture day with a professional photographer. Students are encouraged to come dressed however they like and pose with a mic or sheet music. We hope our adult students will take part too!
