I've worked with executives to help them get more comfortable addressing their colleagues in the business environment; empower their speech to help get ideas across in meetings and become more comfortable using PowerPoint and other presentation tools to help illustrate report findings or deliver timely information to staff members. My clients have included executives, doctors, litigation lawyers and teachers.

About Arlys

(99)
My specialty as a professional voice teacher is Contemporary Commercial Music [CCM] covering Pop, Country, Hip/Hop, Folk, Rock, R&B, Soul, Gospel, EDM and others. My background in choral singing and bel canto vocal training allows me to assist singers who perform diverse musical genres with authenticity. Additionally, I am cross-trained in dance, yoga, Tai Chi, commercial & improvisational acting. EXPERIENCE: 27 years voice teaching; 12 years living & working in Los Angeles; a lifetime of performing on-stage; BACKGROUND: 12 years of private vocal studies with master teachers of bel canto & contemporary singing techniques. I work with all levels of singers, from those who never want to be on stage to those who need healthy vocal techniques to support recording & touring. To my teachers: I am forever grateful for your gifts of knowledge, skill, grace and compassion.

Arlys is a wonderful singing teacher for all levels. I'm a beginner with a super big fear of singing in public and Arlys makes me feel comfortable and had me singing on my first lesson without a panic attack. She brings so much scientific knowledge to her craft for a full mind, body, heart connection to finding your voice.

First lesson went great, Arlys has a lot of experience outside the classroom spanning decades in several genres. She was perceptive to my goals, style, range and potential. It's been a decade since I've played professionally and it was such a breath of fresh air to find a teacher whose been through the mud and understands practical, applicable skills for the stage. I'm excited to see where this goes and can't wait until my lesson next week. First impression - hands down 5/5
