SPRING CLASSES ENROLLING NOW!
The Songwriting School opened our doors in 2009. We feel grateful to have kept them open through the tragic fires and to continue to unite as a community with heart and through art. SUMMER CLASSES WILL OPEN FOR REGISTRATION SOON!
Most classes (especially with a performance aspect) will have in-person opportunities for LA people--and all classes will additionally be offered over Zoom fully interactive, with both live, real-time interaction at historic Enterprise Recording Studios in Burbank with your instructor and classmates AND fully on-demand archives of each class for your access, on your own schedule. See the list below.
Since 2009, we are THE Songwriting School. We are strong because of the heart and character of this creative community.
