Mr. Ricardo has been incredibly instrumental in our son’s development. In the last seven months, we have seen huge leaps with his attention, focus and overall interest in music activities. We make quite the drive every Saturday morning because we truly believe in Mr. Ricardo’s skills and talent working with children with ASD. He incorporates singing, piano and various musical drills to draw in the child’s focus. We are incredibly thankful we have been able to collaborate with him.

Music therapy is simply amazing! It can help children improve sensory integration, focus, attention span, and help them learn how to play an instrument while working on synchronization. I highly recommend Ricardo! He's very professional and knows how to work with children. In just few months, my son is now reading music notes and playing on the piano! Ricardo plays multiple instruments and has an amazing character. My son loves the music and piano lessons with Ricardo! This place definitely deserves a 5 star rating!

Ricardo is committed, positive and kind with kids. He painted a picture for my daughter about what she can accomplish, and gently encouraged daily practice. Isabel learned to play piano and drums, and we gained ideas for how to strengthen her weaker hand.

My son has never looked forward to therapy like he has since he started working with Ricardo. It’s not just therapy for my son, who is on the autism spectrum; it’s a jam session with a friend. My son isn’t even aware of how much he’s learning, but within the first few weeks he was more engaged and more communicative about music and about his sessions with Ricardo, which led to actual conversations - extraordinary progress! The best part is how much my son is enjoying the experience. He’s learning new instruments and composition, and his confidence grows every week. We knew he had a gift for music, but we didn’t know how to encourage it or build upon it; thanks to Ricardo, my son’s natural talent is being further developed and is simultaneously serving as a catalyst to help him with social skills and communication. We are so lucky to have Ricardo on our team.

Ricardo Hurtado, the mastermind behind La Musica Therapy, is not only a talented music teacher but is also extremely knowledgeable in the underlying music theory and can therefore explain it with exquisite clarity.
