***Hola! My name is Reina. I am a music coach here at Takelessons. I specialize in the voice and ukulele. I offer group and private lessons. I currently offer private lessons on a schedule-as-you-go basis. To help you practice in between your classes, find me on the TL Live group platform Monday-Thursday ❤️

In your lessons we can work on beginning vocal technique, artist development, ukulele chord transitions and strumming, increasing vocal range, audition prep, songwriting, breath control, performance, ear training, music theory, sight reading, and more.

 
Below is a list of FAQs - if you have further questions beyond what is listed feel free to contact me through the Ask a Question feature on my profile.

Where can I take voice lessons?
Currently, lessons are available online.

What will I learn in my lessons?
You will learn how to care for, and properly play your instrument. We will start with basic exercises and drills, and move into more advanced techniques as you progress in your skill sets. 

What if I'm a beginner?
Totally fine! I teach all levels beginning through professional. The voice is an instrument just like any other instrument and must be learned in the same manner, from the beginning!

Can I try the first class for Free?
No. I guarantee you will learn something useful, even in your first lesson.

Essential Music Theory for Singers

Very nice lady. Seems to really enjoy teaching and brings the same bubbly energy that made learning fun in kindergarten. Really enjoyed my lesson.

I am in love with my first session in the books, I can’t wait to keep moving forward with Reina! She is my new rock! I can’t wait to see what she challenges me with next!

Reina is highly competent and can quickly diagnose an issue with my singing and offer a solution. Positive and fun!

Reina is awesome! I get discouraged and she is very encouraging and helping with wonderful lessons and suggestions to help me! Highly recommend!

Reina is a such a delightful soul. I have learned so much about public speaking and the power of my voice. Her lessons are fun and informative. I cannot recommend Reina enough!

OMG I love her personality. She is so genuine and pleasant.  My 1st lesson was better than I thought it would be. She understood how I was breathing(chest) just from talking to me for a short time. Very encouraging. I felt she was patient and I felt comfortable with her. I can’t wait until our next talk.

Reina is a total pro. Her knowledge, expertise, and teaching style are first-rate. Would recommend Reina 1000 times a day.

Reina is super friendly, knowledgeable, and the real deal when it comes to music instruction. She identified my daughter's goals, evaluated her technique, and offered valuable lessons she'll take with her throughout her music career. My daughter quickly became comfortable with Reina, surely due to Reina's bubbly personality and "teacher" demeanor.  If we could give her ten stars, we would.

Great, she has an infectious positivity that I love.
