VOICE: Voice Lessons: All Levels: Beginner Voice Lessons to Advanced Voice Lessons, 12+ teens, adults. Posture, breathing and scale exercises, breath support and control, stretching, placement techniques, range expansion and power, articulation, expression, tone, and dynamics. Natural voice techniques with each level taught safely, building a strong and balanced foundation for singers of all ages and skill.  Advancing to more extensive study in breathing, toning, placement, scales, etc.  All styles, classical to popular.

Instructor is a singer, songwriter, lyricist, and composer with over 30 years experience. Teaching beginner to advanced voice to students who have received lead roles, thousands in college scholarships, and have become professional singers, songwriters, performers, and composers. Developing a voice of their own unique style as singer songwriters, rock singers, pop singers, classical singers, broadway singers, country singers, choir singers, cantors, and weddings singers. Voice Lessons: Beginner foundation for young singers, 5-11 who display natural gifts in singing, and a true love for singing. Accompanied by parent, grandparent, family. Teaching gifted singers for over 30 years, some as young as 5 years old, who are now professional singers today. I started singing very young and a few years later I had a fantastic voice teacher. I started singing in the church choir at 8 years old and my teacher coached me in the most beautiful singing methods, and in the most safe, encouraging, and positive way. My breathing techniques improved dramatically. Almost immediately. She helped me understand my voice in every way. She taught me beautiful songs and scales, and she made it gloriously fun. It was a great joy in my childhood to sing with her after Mass or choir practice. My confidence level went up to 100%!! Before I was 11 years old, I had command over my voice, my instrument. And that it is, an instrument. It felt great to know I was good at singing, and singing was something wonderful. I was lifted up, and was off into my thoughts and heart, like all kids are, writing lyrics and composing music. What a great beginning it was, and one I carry into my instruction to help others achieve their goals. From beginners to pros, it all starts with a great love for singing. See below for voice instruction on special projects.
