About Ariel
Hi! My name is Ariel. Thank you so much for looking at my profile. Here is some information about my educational background, performance career, and how I believe I benefit students.
I was heralded as an “impressive young…discovery” by the Los Angeles Times in 2010 when I made my operatic debut with Long Beach Opera as Nancy T’ang in Adam’s Nixon in China. I have performed roles such as Donna Elvira in Mozart’s Don Giovanni, Micaela in Bizet’s Carmen, First Woman in Cherubini’s Medea, Second Lady in Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte, and Giovanna in Verdi’s Rigoletto. I have been a soloist with the Blackbird Music Project, and I regularly collaborate with composers in the Southern California area. I was a fourth place winner in the Palm Springs Vocal Competition and am an OperaWorks alumna. I have a Masters degree from the University of
I was heralded as an “impressive young…discovery” by the Los Angeles Times in 2010 when I made my operatic debut with Long Beach Opera as Nancy T’ang in Adam’s Nixon in China.

I have been a soloist with the Blackbird Music Project, and I regularly collaborate with composers in the Southern California area. I was a fourth place winner in the Palm Springs Vocal Competition and am an OperaWorks alumna. I have a Masters degree from the University of
Southern California, Thornton School of Music and I have a Bachelors degree from Northern Arizona University. I also completed a teaching internship at the California Lutheran University.
My style of teaching is tailor made for each student because everyone has different goals and needs. I focus on making singing fun and painless while setting a strong technical foundation. My goal for the student is to take away technical issues so they can be musically expressive and show the world who they are.
*** Lesson Details ***
I am a laid back teacher. My hope is that students will feel improvement in their lessons and it will motivate them to practice. In my opinion, the lessons should be fun, educational, and safe.
My curriculum is based on the needs of the student. In general, I always begin with breathing techniques. Breathing is the foundation of singing and so I tend to spend some time trying to show the student the most efficient and most effortless technique. Then I move on to what I have learned from my own voice teacher, and I will teach the students what are called "vocal function exercises." These are a series of gentle warm ups that teach the student a combination of breath pressure, resonance, and eliminating physical tensions within the neck, chest, and back. Then I move on to incorporating these ideas into repertoire. I like to decide repertoire with the student based on their preferences and their skill level. Generally I like to give the student one classical piece in a foreign language and one musical theater piece, but this is not set in stone.
I hope that after a few months the student will have an understanding of breathing, beginning vocal technique, and some repertoire we have been working on.
All of this said, ultimately I do not hold students to my own expectations. I want them to learn at their own pace and not feel they need to be at a certain point after a certain amount of time.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Living Room. Keyboard. Seating for parents. Cats.
*** Travel Equipment ***
I can provide sheet music and I expect the student to provide a keyboard or piano.
*** Specialties ***
I teach a method that is very simple and allows the student to express themselves musically and to have fun.
My expertise is Opera but I can teach all styles of singing.

About Azuri M.

Students will be introduced to a variety of vocal warm up and strengthening techniques designed to develop the voice. We will also be studying songs and lyric reading.
About Azuri
Learning is one of my main pursuits. My name is Azuri and I have studied music for over a decade and have my degree in guitar performance from musicians institute. I've had the gift of studying many artistic crafts and spend my time today trying to further my own study, while sharing what I've learned with my students.
Art is one of the most important tools we have as a culture and contains in it a shared history, tradition and the keys to future ones. Whether it be through the primal qualities of music or the impulses of dance, the records of drawing or descriptions of writing, these are the tools for our expression. I have had the great fortune to study, in many different settings, a small piece of these traditions and sharing them is paramount in respect to receiving them. I love sharing knowledge and I hope to elevate yours as a st

Teaching Philosophy -
My teaching philosophy is built on well rounded communication, explanation and examples. So, that a student can truly understand and learn a topic, surrounded in a very humorous, light and supportive environment.
Along with being provided good information, a student learns better and feels more motivated to learn when there is a balance of positive support and confidence building accompanied by constructive criticism and examples/information that can help a student assess what ever walls they may be meeting in their musical growth.
I understand that all students/artists have different goals they wish to achieve. So it is very important to me to accommodate each individuals needs and wants to help them grow in the fields they wish too; However, In that I have played music for a long time, I understand there are certain things that a student may not have been exposed to yet; It is important that while focusing on a students artistic goals they respect and are open to the suggestion and guidance of their teacher.
I truly believe music has an amazing influence on the world and has the ability to change peoples way of thinking. Therefore, I try and keep an open awareness to all music, so that I can understand all different musical languages utilized to communicate to people, and I don't believe I will ever know them all. I hold it to attention to influence my students somewhat similarly so that they can shape the landscape of how we communicate musically in the future.
I also try and be very patient with my students. Knowing that when I feel rushed, it makes information more difficult to comprehend, remember and allocate. I love watching the gears run in my students head, so I try and provide information that pushes a student but is within their abilities.
HUMOR is very important. I like to break people out of their shell by telling a joke and hopefully getting one back, so they feel more comfortable and free. One of a Artists worst enemies are nerves. Keeping things light-hearted and maybe even a little small talk can be very helpful to a students development and growth on a topic. After all, Art is meant to be fun and we should enjoy every moment of it, in fact we should enjoy every moment in life period.
I understand music requires focus and discipline and I have certain expectation of a student to understand that and practice. You can't buy chops, you can't buy music theory etc. you can get help but eventually your the one who must understand it and play it.
I am here to help you. Based on what I know and what I have extensively studied, I will do all that I can to help you achieve your musical goals. I am here to answer your questions and help you grow. I love teaching because I love sharing knowledge; As long as your seek it, it is here for you. Otherwise, I'd still love to hear some jokes.

*** Lesson Details ***
I'm very disciplined but am also very light hearted. It's important for me to assess things seriously, so that one can understand a topic or piece of information.
I generate my lessons based on the individuals needs and therefore draw from various curriculums, sources and examples, such as : MI curriculum for ear training, Theory, Single string Technique, Reading, Rhythm guitar, Ted Greenes Chord Chemistry, Berklee Guitar Method, as well as The Real Book, other artist books(Eric Clapton, etc.) The Guitar Players Hand Book, Bach pieces and self developed curriculums, relative to the topic at hand and students personal goals, amongst many others.
-Beginning students within three months of consistent lessons should have the ability to solo and playing chords to songs that they are interested in and songs provided in the lesson along with a basic understanding of the major scale and its relationship to all of the diatonic music.
-intermediate students should have an elevated understanding of scale and chord patters along with the theory that explains modal relationships and use of these concepts.
-Advanced students should learn all of diatonic scale shapes and modes assuming they don't already know them in which case their specifically situation will be assessed
-Professional students I expect to have specific questions therefore where they grow should be largely subjective.
Overall, in a short amount of time on a scale of 1 - 10 I expect to in three months at-least elevate a students musical abilities one full point if not more.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Studio in home in private room with guitars, amps, piano, and seating.
Em's studio is family owned cafe with studio in finished basement with an office, recording equipment, and teaching space for acting and guitar.
*** Specialties ***
As a Musician I try and play as many styles and be proficient in as many as possible and therefore can play most. However, in the fields of blues, jazz, funk, flamenco and Latin I excel.

About Toni K.
Close
Technique lays the ground work for proficiency in any instrument. The voice is no different. I teach breathing, placement, ear training and harmony. That said, I focus my coaching on the power of authentic story telling using movement and acting exercises to build artistic skill.
About Toni
Just a couple of seasons ago one of my amazing students, Juliana Chahayed made top 40 on American Idol! 2 of my students recently made it through two rounds of The Voice. 12 of my students sang on the Grammy Award nominated "Hurry Up, We're Dreaming" by M83. My students have also gotten into top music programs at Berklee College of Music, NYU, USC, Brandeis and Cal State University Northridge; won 1st prize in the high school talent show and money prizes in community singing contests. My singers have sung the Star Spangle Banner at Staples Center for a Clipper's game and produced successful showcases in the LA area. My story starts a while back: As a singer/songwriter my experiences singing live from Bud Friedman's Improv to the Disneyland Hotel and in studios all across Los Angeles eventually took me to Europe where I landed in
Brussels and recorded an album for Sony Records/Belgium which produced three radio hits in the 90's. I also recorded and/or wrote jingles for Coca Cola, Fanta, Schwepes, Fisher Price and more! Fluent in French, when I moved back to the states I taught at Lycee International de Los Angeles for 12 years where I developed a music program for their 4 campuses, teaching K through 12, including commendations from everyone from French President Sarkozy to Los Angeles Councilman Tom LeBonge. I've recorded 6 children's CD's and recently directed and arranged background vocals for renown French singer and actress Charlotte Gainsbourg. In my private practice I have prepared and developed singers for live performance, personal development and for the rigors of the auditioning process. And we always have fun!!
*** Lesson Details ***
Learn to play the voice! I have developed my own special brand of singing lessons using breathing and placement techniques to provide the tools you need to develop as a vocalist and help you make the choices of an artist. How do you want to tell your story? My lessons will help you build confidence and every lesson will bring you a new piece of understanding and practical know-how. You will work hard, play hard, build a repertoire, and make tangible improvements in every single lesson! Success breeds success. If you want to audition for The Voice or simply enjoy the applause at karaoke night, I can bring you closer to your goal. I can also include beginning piano which can only add to your skills including an understanding of music vocabulary and the basic mechanics of music theory.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Music Room, and recording studio, piano, guitars, computer and cd, ipod docs. Parents are welcome to stay for lessons or run to close-by Starbucks, Costco or Home Depot!
*** Travel Equipment ***
I use a piano to teach both voice and beginning piano.
*** Specialties ***
I use solfege, breathing and placement techniques filtered through an emphasis on real world performance skills. Helping the student build confidence is probably one of the teachers' most important roles. Creating a safe environment is key to keeping the lesson fun, productive and challenging. Every single student should leave every single lesson with a tangible feeling of progress.

About Darci M.
Close
I have been a professional vocalist, studio musician, recording artist and songwriter starting at 15 and have studied voice extensively since I was 16 with some of the country's premier vocal coaches. Over the years I've molded together the best of everything I learned to create my own "Tech and Truth Method™" and now I share it with my students! By applying a combination of classical and speech-level methods to all styles of contemporary repertoire, I can help you improve upon and/or master the following:
A daily vocal workout that will keep your cords in tip-top shape well into your golden years.
Chest mix - my specialty; my techniques will keep you from blowing your voice out ever again.
Breathing - it's just not as complicated as some would have you think.
Tone - color, warmth and fullness can be yours, usually with minor adjustments.
Range - did you know you could hit that note? Totally true. And easy.
Power - louder is not correcter; learn to hit the back of the room ...
About Darci
Greetings, songbirds! ♪♫
I'm Darci Monet and I would love nothing more than to sing with you! I've been a professional vocalist since I was 15 and have studied voice with some of the country's best teachers since I was 16 (and let's just say that was a hot minute ago!). I've been coaching singers for a living since at least 2001 (on and off long before that, really). I just might be the best kept secret in Los Angeles because I keep my roster small in order to maintain focus on each individual singer and keep things exciting and fresh at all times. You won't catch me "phoning it in" with my singers. I love what I do and maintaining a smaller, select roster of committed artists helps me keep it that way! 😁
My down-to-earth attitude (I'm originally an east coaster!) and cozy but open environment will make you feel at home and at ease

I believe in helping your find YOUR voice and then helping you master it. I believe in REALLY teaching you the art of singing with safety and freedom and to perform for your audience with heart and authenticity. If that sounds like what you're looking for, then the Darci Monet Vocal Style Studio is the perfect fit for you! 👍

I have been taking lessons with Darci for quite awhile now. She is a fantastic coach and has helped me expand my vocal capabilities, making me feel more confident in any performance or audition situation. I have a strictly Musical Theatre/Classical background and with her help, I can know comfortably sing many different styles of music.
What really makes Darci stand out as an instructor is the environment she creates. She is nurturing without pandering, supportive while being straight forward. That type of honest, thoughtful coaching is hard to come by in a city like Los Angeles. She is truly unique in a city full of cookie cutters. I would not want to learn from anyone else!

About Emilia L.

Every voice is beautiful in it's own unique way. I believe that it is important to find your own voice and thrive in any musical style you desire. I was trained classically at Chapman University, where I also took part in musicals, as well as a cappella. I have performed on the Hollywood Bowl stage, in a Covergirl promotion for Pitch Perfect 2, and at the Beacon Theatre on Broadway. I love teaching all styles of music and encourage my students to explore the wonderful world of music.

About Rosie F.

Students will learn how to control their voice, how to interpret a song and sing with feeling. They'll learn to sing stylistically in whichever style they choose, and expand their repertoire in multiple genres. They'll also learn (if they want!) how to accompany themselves on the piano and the music theory behind what they're singing.
About Rosie

My goals as a teacher are:
1.To help you feel confident in your abilities as a musician
2. For you to fall in love with playing music!
3. To give you a level of mastery on your chosen instrument
My teaching style is personal, encouraging and positive! I'd love to help you reach your goals!

About Shahana J.
Close
Throughout my experience teaching, I have found the most important thing to be finding peace and having fun while singing. In addition, we will work on technique/breathing, and most importantly - finding your voice.
About Shahana
I am a vocalist and songwriter based in Los Angeles, and have experience teaching voice as well as performing and recording.
In lessons (based on your current skill level and experience) we will work on technique - specifically breathing, singing with the least amount of pain and tension, and working on timbre and tone. Lessons will be geared by you- we will work on what you are interested in, and I will give the tools to do so in our lesson, and by yourself when you practice.

About Marissa H.
Close
I have taken years of singing lessons where I have learned not only to find my voice, but learn how to sing correctly using stomach muscles and diaphragm. I love to show kids how to find music they love and help them find genres they love to sing. At the same time, I love teaching the technique that creates a strong singer great! This is the same technique that I have been practicing for 7 plus years.
About Marissa
I have been a student at USC for three years where I have been studying music. I love to sing and perform around campus, and play piano on my own time. I teach voice and piano camps in San Diego over the summer. Last years camp was 20 kids ranging from 4 - 12 years. I was able to help each and everyone learn something new while spending the last day performing for their parents. I have always loved to play and teach music, following in my mother's footsteps who owners her own music school in San Diego.

"Amazing musical experience!
Rachelle taught me for around a total of a two years. Throughout my time with her my musical horizons were vastly broadened.
Rachelle taught me for around a total of a two years. Throughout my time with her my musical horizons were vastly broadened.
From general Piano/music theory to singing with proper use of diaphragm, her instruction was thorough, intense, and sincere. She always had a way of making me feel very comfortable with myself and helped me to achieve a greater sense of confidence in my musical abilities.
Overall I would recommend Rachelle to ANYONE in any field of music. She has the skills, experience and knowledge that anyone would benefit from, and I feel very blessed for the time I had learning from her!"

Review by Jennifer
"My name is Jennifer. I am 35. I am a beginner with music although I have taken choir from 7th through 12th grade in high school and participated in chur
ch choir until the last ten years. I have always dreamed of singing. I have been told I am tone deaf for years which caused me to give up my desire for quite some time. I started with Amy just a few weeks ago. I have seen a remarkable improvement. I am still struggling but have learned far more from her in just less than a month than I have learned with in my 6 years of choir. This says a lot due to the fact at one time I ate slept and breathed music. I just never could understand the mechanics and anatomy. I recently did the piece that I am working on with Mrs Amy to one of the few I confided in about my lessons and they were amazed at the difference (this would be one of the ones who said music is just not for me). I am blessed to have her as a vocal coach and would recommend her to anyone. I am not where I want to be yet but I am so blessed that I am not where I was. Thank you Amy!"

"My daughter has been going through a lot of insecurities due to constant bullying at school . I booked Rosita for singing lessons after I found out my dau
ghter tried to commit. She started to change slowly after starting Rosita's classes,more confident. She's not only an excellent singing teacher but a life coach, motivates l,she builds a person. My daughter is now in college pursuing her dream. She loves what she does and you can see it. Thank you for being that teacher that teaches more than just a subject"

"Hannah helped me an immense amount with technique. I started singing backing vocals in my country band and was having a lot of problem singing harmonies a
nd breathing while singing in general. Thanks to Hanna, I am now a lot more comfortable doing backgrounds, and my bandmates are happy that I am picking up the slack. Thanks Hannah!"
