I have been teaching and coaching singers for 25+ years.
I will guide you in finding the healthiest approach to singing for YOU. What is right for one singer is highly likely to not be exactly what another singer needs. Utilizing various approaches, including Estill and Bel Canto, we work to develop the best individually based program for YOU. We build a healthy foundation for the voice, gaining confidence through knowledge and consistency. You will learn control and appropriate stylistic application of healthy singing technique to different genres as well as the idiosyncrasies of each genre – singing authentically while maintaining vocal health. In short, we learn what is healthy for you, and then how to apply it properly to the style you want to sing.
I work with students to find vocal freedom and ease of tone production; working with breath, alignment, resonance, and musicality, wherever the student happens to be in their vocal journey. I believe in order to be an effective teaching guide, it is necessary to be adaptable so the learning needs of each student may be addressed successfully. I strive to find the ways in which each individual student will thrive, so they may develop unshakable confidence and trust in themselves, their singing instrument, and their developing artistry.
In my private studio, students work on a variety of skills, including technique, sight-reading, rhythm, beginning piano skills (if they do not have any), technical exercises I’ve written, theory, diction, transcription, ear training, characterization, and overall artistry through song or theatrical performance. I believe these skills are crucial to vocal training to create a highly employable, exquisite performing artist and singing musician. I aim to produce a well-rounded artist who is equally at ease on stage, touring, in the recording studio, in the bathroom mirror, or in any musical goal they have.
No matter where you are in your musical journey, I want to help.
Progress you will hear and feel!
