Here’s what our students and their parents are saying about Hollywood Academy of Music (http://www.hollywoodacademyofmusic.com):

I am so thrilled with the instruction my son is receiving from the studio. I find it astounding that each child receives such individualized guidance, because it is very important in teaching to be open to what each child brings to the table in order to help them blossom. I am so grateful that this is happening for my son.
~ Leah Nall

I have taken guitar lessons for many years and from many instructors, but I've found these lessons to be the most rewarding. I've learned a tremendous amount in areas covering technique, improvisation, scales, music theory, songwriting, and live performance. The environment is relaxed and fun, but structured with explicit weekly goals that ensure you're getting where you want to be.
~ James Lee

From the very start, my lessons have been tailored to my personal abilities, interests, and musical tastes...not to mention being lots of fun! The regular recitals provide something to work towards and are wonderful opportunities to perform in front of others. I highly recommend Hollywood Academy of Music to music lovers of all ages!

The Family Shocks Bio
Members
Dave Pression: Keyboards ,Vocals 21
Violet Vineyard: Bass 21
Ryan Ranson : Guitar 22
Russ Insane: Drums 21

The Family Shocks formed in 2007 when Dave Pression ,June Gloom and best friend Adam Angst decided after drinking lots of Jolt Cola and listening to TSOL, Alice Cooper ,Billie Holiday and the Virgin Prunes to start a band to express themselves and start their evil plot to take over the world.
They then met Violet Vineyard who’s real name is Sashelle Hedrick who played bass in Mosquito and Horrors Of Toledo and they had mutual musical tastes and love for Pizza and cheesecake.
The Family Shocks play a blend of Punk ,Industrial ,Post Punk ,Gothic ,Indie Rock , Rock all blended into one pot .The outcome is an energetic angst ridden ride on a crooked roller coaster that is a sound like Billie Holiday ,The Cramps ,Johnny Cash ,Interpol, Killing Joke meets Tiny Tim meets Don Ho .
The Family Shocks are located in Orange County and have played locally at The Vault 350,DiPiazzas ,Hogue Barmichaels ,Ultra Longue ,Doll Hut, Knitting Factory ,The Roxy , and opened for The Deadly Syndrome ,Dusty Rhodes and the Little River band, Penus Flytrap , Frankenstein and others …..
They have a record coming out on new label Vamped Records www.myspace.com/vampedrecord which is run by Sashelle’s parents Lisa Christine and Sash former promoters of Hot Pants atr Mr.Ts Bowl who booked the famous Breeders reunion in 2001 with the other members of the Pixies watching and who are former teen runaways and musicians who were homeless when they met in Los Angeles and a year later had Sashelle.They worked at legendary Los Angeles Clubs Scream and Cathouse,The Krypt ,The Olympic and more .
Their debut is a 12 song album with such titles as “Spanking Babies” ,”Transexual” ,”Everything Ends”,”Stepdad” and “ All eyes on me just to name a few.
June Gloom and Adam Angst have been replaced by Ryan Ransom on guitar who Violet and Dave met at a Palm Reading in and Russ insane on drums and their lineup is a rejuvenated tornado ready to take your town.
Dave Pression is a very shy person who turns into this Iggy like person once he hits the stage .
He is a very serious person with a twisted sense of Humour and he is a one of a kind character and not one of your average Orange County kids. One of his favorite foods and past times is eating fresh green beans and making art out of the skins..
He is very influenced by Nick Cave(Birthday Party era) ,Edward Gorey and Ian Curtis and it reflects their music.
KXLU FM in Los Angeles has had The Family Shocks live in the studio and plays their not yet released record .
They are planning on a tour soon and a few major labels have contacted their management about possibly releasing it as a joint Vamped Records venture.

I would like to hear from you, please call or send me an email "click here"





About Me

I'm a Los Angeles native playing music passionately for more than 33 years. I started playing music at 9 years old and my love for music has only grown. I teach privately at several music stores as well as a community college in Walnut. I have extensive experience in teaching music for the last 20 years. My training is vast and have been mentored by world class teachers in every area of study. You will be in good hands when you study with me. Also I have done many tours in the U.S. and abroad to places like Great Britain, Germany, Switzerland, Hungary, to name a few. I have performed with The Ten Tenors from Australia, David Hasslehoff, Davis Gaines (Phantom Of The Opera), Patty Andrews, Liew Mathews (Nancy Wilson), Jim Stubblefield of the group Incendio (Flamenco, Latin) and Luis Bonilla (New York jazz composer/trombonist with the Mingus Band, The Lincoln Center Orchestra and Marc Anthony). I currently work at Mt San Antonio College (Walnut, Ca) as a part time accompanist in the Vocal Jazz dept as well as rhythm section coach for the jazz band program. I have extensive experience with young students having taught for many years and I work in education for Los Angeles Unified School Dist. I teach practical things that students can use and I tailor the lessons to the student in ways to bring out the best in the student.

Subjects taught:
•Guitar (Electric and Acoustic)
•Vocals (Vocal Coaching)
•Bass (Electric and Upright)
•Music Theory
•Composition
•Jazz, Classical, Latin, Rock, Blues

Mt San Antonio College A.A. Music 1988
Outstanding Jazz guitarist Pacific Coast Collegiate Jazz Festival, Berkley Ca 1987-88
Cal State University Los Angeles Music 1991
Outstanding Jazz bassist Pacific Coast Collegiate Jazz Festival, Berkley Ca 1991
Studied voice privately with Dr. Maurice Allard from 1993-95.
Currently working as accompanist and coach for the Mount San Antonio College Music Dept 2003-present

I also teach guitar classes for the City Of Pasadena for their Youth Arts Program

Subjects Taught

Acoustic guitar, Bass guitar, Classical guitar, Electric guitar, Flamenco guitar, Music theory, Singing, Theatrical singing, Upright bass, Vocal lessons, Voice lessons, Voice technique, Voice therapy,

Ages Taught

Students that are mature enough to understand the material. Children over 9 years preferred but will make an exception after we discuss terms.

Lesson Details

I use various effective techniques in which the student builds strength, agility and lasting musicianship skills. You can choose some of these areas or learn them all:

*Musicianship and Ear Training
*Sight Reading
*Strength Building Exercises (Instrumental and Vocal)
*Music Theory
*Rhythm Studies
*Scales and how they apply to Chords and Melody
*Building your own repertoire of music (Instrumental and Vocal)

For vocal students, I use a method handed down to me from Dr. Maurice Allard. A very comprehensive technique focusing on tone production, breathing and support. I will give you a large range of exercises, including scales, to train your muscles and your ears. I do many relaxation exercises similar to the Alexander method to unlock your voice.

On guitar, I use my own system of mapping your fretboard, theory, sight-reading, rhythm studies and improvisation.

On double bass I do many of the same but with using the Simandl and Rabbath methods teaching bowing technique.

On electric bass the same as above and I can teach pop, jazz, rock, funk (slapping).

I know these instruments inside out. I have been obsessed with learning everything about my voice and these instruments for many years. I enjoy sharing knowledge with my students. I want you to know as much as about music and your instrument as you will allow me to show you.

I have always believed that teaching is inspiration and structure while maintaining a positive attitude, keeping the lessons fun, and rewarding. I can give you tools to help you create on your own. In other words, a program that gives you confidence in learning beyond what you already may know while employing an approach you will find useful for years to come. Every lesson is recorded on a CD so you can refer to the lesson when you need reinforcement at your leisure.

Overall I believe you will find me patient, understanding, positive, encouraging and professional all along your educational journey. I want to teach students to feed themselves once they have learned to fish (in a manner of speaking). In other words, wouldn't you want a teacher to give you the gift of learning on your own long after you have studied with them? Learn all the fundamentals to allow you to explore the music world on your own once you have gone through my program. Let me help you and I will assure you a very pleasant learning experience. Contact me today. I would love to hear from you. 626-833-0089

What Students have to say

Student Review by Ben I. - Jun 10, 2008 "I have been playing guitar on my own for several years. The only “lessons” I ever received was from friends, and attempting to learn from music books and tabs. I started lessons with Ruben and suddenly saw more than just strings and frets to be plucked, but started to understand how the guitar worked, and the music that could be created was endless. I was exposed to a lot of different music styles, even at a beginner level and was given many practice techniques to develop these styles. Ruben made the lessons fun, educational, and inspiring. Ruben gave me the tools to develop my guitar skills, and help me recognize other music abilities, to the point that I was able to perform a song for my wife on our wedding day. It wasn’t a perfect rendition of “Sweet Caroline” but my wife called it the perfect song, and her most memorable moment. Thank you Ruben! "

Excellent Teacher - cea1989 - Jan 7, 2009 I've been taking bass guitar lessons from Ruben at the Fret House in Covina for years now and each time I go I am sure to learn something ... More » I've been taking bass guitar lessons from Ruben at the Fret House in Covina for years now and each time I go I am sure to learn something new. From day one I could tell that he was going to be very easy to work with and talk to. Whether it be finger exercises or different techniques that I can use to learn the fret board, Ruben has enabled me to play and instrument. Not only that, with instruction on playing a variety of songs, he has taught me about music theory and has allowed me to form my own bass lines and properly navigate chord changes. He has taught me everything I know about playing bass guitar. Without him I would not have been able to play in my former school's Jazz Band or spend time with friends in our own garage band. He has exposed me to a world of music which before him I never knew I could be a part of. Thank you Ruben. "

Ruben is an amazing teacher! - bhurter - Jan 23, 2009 "I have been taking lessons from Ruben for about a year, after not having played in 20 years. This time around I'm learning the right way/ I have been taking lessons from Ruben for about a year, after not having played in 20 years. This time around I'm learning the right way...scales, fingering exercises and theory. Every lesson with Ruben is different and always interesting. I'd recommend him to anyone who is serious about learning to play."

BASS LESSONS - from acclaimed teacher/bassist ! (Studio or In-Home; Beg./kids to Pros.)

posted: November 22, 2009, 07:31 PM

Replyclick here

* ONE OF THE MOST SKILLED & EXPERIENCED TEACHERS AROUND ! *

GREAT WITH KIDS/BEGINNERS AS WELL AS INTERMEDIATE/ADVANCED/PROS !


- Learn everything (Technique, Fretboard, Theory, Reading, EarTraining etc) the CORRECT way from a highly credited and experienced teacher/bassist at studio in Hollywood, or Housecalls within 30 miles of L.A.


My name is Bjorn Englen. I have taught bass, incl. at B.I.T. (Musicians Institute), through clinics World wide, at Paul Green’s School of Rock, privately and as the Head Bass Instructor at Rock Nation, for over 19 years. I have played the bass for over 25 years, professionally for 20 years. I have toured the world and recorded with many gold and platinum recording artists, and I feel lucky and privileged to be able to share what I have learned with my students. I’m currently the bass player for legendary guitarist Yngwie Malmsteen, and in the past for Quiet Riot, Robin McAuley (Survivor/MSG)
as well as members of Foreigner, David Lee Roth, Dio, Ozzy, Elton John, Journey, Dream Theater, Rainbow, Night Ranger, Heart, Deep Purple, Steve Vai, Paul Rodgers, George Lynch - to name a few.

I work very well with kids and beginners. I teach most styles of music and techniques, and my approach is very patient and friendly. I specialize in taking intermediate and advanced/professional Rock, Pop, Metal and Blues Players to a much higher level by making them understand bass playing and music in a deeper and more logical way. I teach techniques, fretboard orientation, effective learning and theory in a way that will rapidly improve your playing and confidence on stage and in the studio, as well as help you find your own style.


I may not be the "the cheapest" teacher in town, but I do well in making sure, whether you are a Pro or a Beginner, that you develop PROPER technique and understanding of the instrument. Bad habits can be extremely hard to break!


Please, don't hesitate to call me or E-mail me anytime if you have any questions ! I look forward to hearing from you.
