BOOK CLARITY CALL WITH CARINAHi, I’m Carina Lopez
After 12 years as an engineer and expert in risk management for large-scale projects, I followed my passion for music and have spent the last five years as a DJ. Now, I’m launching Meant to Beats DJ School here in Houston.
These lessons aren't just about music.
It's about:
Confidence
Creativity
Life Skills
Community
And most importantly?
Making sure young talent knows they belong in music.
What’s Included?
- Transformative, practical workshop
- Use of professional DJ controller + gear
- Confidence-building exercises (disguised as fun!)
- Take-home materials for continued practice
Why parents choose Meant to Beats?
-
We provide safe, modern spaces where their teens can build confidence, reduce anxiety, and express themselves.
-
Real-world use case: Students like Sofia left class more confident, applying what she learned to public speaking and teamwork at school.
-
Unique value: Created by Carina Lopez (licensed engineer turned DJ), who understands both structured learning and creative confidence-building.
My daughter went from being afraid to press any buttons to confidently showing her friends how to mix music!
Staci, parent of 13-year-old Sofia
Carina made everyone feel comfortable making mistakes that's when the real learning happened!

Parent Spotlight: Mom of a Meant to Beats Student
"You have got to sign up your daughters!
What an empowering way to build their self confidence, own the room, have so much fun, and uplift others.
They’re not just learning to DJ they're learning music theory, math, and how to count beats.
It’s creative and educational.
Honestly? This would be perfect for birthday parties or even getting your girlfriends together for one of these classes!"
