Gilbert, AZ Singing Lessons

I gave my first singing lesson when I was 14 years old. It was then that I knew that I wanted to teach voice lessons. Growing up performing on stage, I fell in love with music. As I got older I knew I wanted to instill this same passion to others. If you do the exercises and techniques I teach you, you will continue to see improvement and you will be amazed at how your voice can develop.

Every person will start out with basics if they are a beginner: Diaphragmatic breathing (support), resonance (tone), and pitch. We will pick songs that you enjoy singing that is in your range, but I will also pick songs to challenge you to be better. If you don't know songs that would suite your voice, I will pick them for you based on your tone and range. Once we get the basics down we will begin to go into more advanced techniques such as vocal fry, controlling vibrato, and much more. I teach all styles of music and all ages.

Whether you are trying to find your true voice, brush up your vocal chords or just getting started, singing is my passion and I would love to help.

I want to help you find your voice and express yourself -- to SHINE and have a lot of fun in the process! I'd like to pass along some of my expertise and knowledge to you. I've been a performing vocalist all my life, with formal training beginning in high school, continuing into college and into my career as a professional musician. I have "stage" experience (choral, broadway musicals, opera) AND experience in the "band" arena, performing vocals and/or bass guitar and guitar for rock, pop, R&B and jazz gigs.

I tend to be an easygoing teacher with a bubbly personality! However, I can be quite strict when it comes to teaching correct technique, and am very thorough in that regard. I never assign a song the student does not like, since the student is less likely to practice and reach his/her true potential. I use a variety of songbooks, depending on the student's genre(s) of interest, as well as assign weekly vocalizes which are specific to each student's technical challenges. I expect all my students, teens and adults alike, to be familiar with basic music notation and theory. If needed, I will assign weekly theory homework, and check the student's answers the following week before the lesson may continue.

I specialize in vocal technique, including repairing long-term vocal damage for my adult students, as well as preparing my students for upcoming auditions & performances. I use a large variety of songbooks, depending on the student's skill level and interest in various musical genres.

Learn to sing louder with more agility and range!! We will work on technique during the lesson as well as learn songs in a fun and supportive environment. Work on musical theater pieces, popular songs, or classical and conquer your stage fright. Two recitals per year plus other performing opportunities.

Singing should be fun, exciting, interesting. Sure there will be days where you're frustrated or irritated or just plain don't want to do anything and I understand those days.

I focus on helping each vocalist maximize their potential as a singer. It is extremely important to develop an understanding of vocal control, feel, rhythm, timing and confidence. Having strong musical ears is just as important as being a vocalist/ musician. It does not matter if someone is a beginner or expert, there can always be room for growth. I welcome all students that are serious about improving,regardless of their level as a vocalist. Lets get to work and have fun :)

I have 2 hours worth of custom vocal lessons I have developed for myself and clients over the years. There are many examples of my voice and my students voices to listen to on the internet. Music should always be fun, I am a studio guitarist who promotes learning how to sing by singing our favorite songs as well as fun warm ups and exercises while I play guitar or keyboard to accompany such songs and exercises.
