I've been teaching voice for about 15 years now.

In voice lessons, we will discover YOUR vocal strengths and build a solid vocal foundation! I love working with students on things like correct breathing, posture, vowel placement, artistry and much more through fun and engaging lessons.

Our voices can be vulnerable to share and I make sure each student feels at home and safe in lessons. When you take lessons from me, you can expect a teacher who is encouraging, caring and passionate about helping you reach your goals.

Hi, I am Valdis! My motto is "teach as you have been taught". This is how belcanto school survived until nowadays. I spent 17 years of my life studying and singing in Italy before moving to the US. In my opinion, there are two main teachers in every singer's life: the singer himself and the stage.
