My Specialties
music, singing, piano, songwriting, DJ'ing, yoga I have developed "Yoga for the Voice" - a combination of my 18 years of studying and receiving certification in the "Science of Singing" (as taught by Ernest George White of London, England) and my 10 years experience and certification in yoga, specifically ancient yoga breathing techniques. I will work with voice students as young as 7 and as old as they want to go! Voice lessons span all styles and all levels - pop, rock, r 'n' b, country, folk, singer-songwriter, opera, classical, musical theater, etc. from beginner to advanced. Generally beginning around age 7. Piano - levels beginner to early advanced, most styles, including classical, rock, pop, folk, country, singer-songwriter, blues and boogie-woogie. Generally beginning around age 5. Songwriting - all popular styles, including rock, pop, folk, country, blues, singer-songwriter, r 'n' b, etc. DJ'ing - all basic DJ methods, including beat matching, turntable basics and repertoire selection. Yoga - yoga breathing AND physical exercises, depending on the needs and wants of the student. In piano, I specialize in teaching students who want to play a wide variety of music - classical, pop, rock, country, blues, etc. I begin with piano students who are 5 years of age and older, as long as they have the requisite attention span. In songwriting, I specialize in teaching students methods of developing popular songs - pop, r 'n' b, country, rock, folk, etc. In DJ'ing, I specialize in basic beatmatching and repertoire selection. And in yoga, I specialize in tailoring the yogic needs of the student - whether she/he wishes to work on stretching, breathing, abdominal strengthening, etc.
My Education
Univ. of MD - music - voice & piano - 1986-1990

Voice Lessons
I think Gfire is GREAT! My daughter loves her. She is so patient with Ashleigh. I was really reluctant about going online to find a vocal coach for my daughter but it's rare you get this lucky on the 1st try. Thanks Gfire.

My piano teacher
She is a great instructor, really I don´t know how easily is for her to play any song. She teaches you with really good techniques which are easy to learn and fun. Even thou she has a lot of thing to do she always puts her attention at 110%.

gfire was very encouraging during my lessons and gave me plenty of exercises to work on at home to make sure I was constantly making progress. I can tell she is very passionate about what she does!
