    I'm great at bringing out the unique subtleties of your voice. I’ve been told I’ve got the b

    I've been coaching new and ion the cusp singers since 2006. Many of my students have gone on to find their own unique sound and style. They got a new increase in strength, range, tone, fashion and conviction. Most goes on to accomplish what they initially set out to do, which can be everything from singing at a friend’s wedding to own to auditioning for American Idol. Within the first few lessons, you’ll be introduced to and become familiar with newly found attributes of your voice, having been given a by a specific set of calisthenics, calibration, power singing, deep ear training and music knowledge routines, packed into a daily 15-minute routine which will extend your singing voice to new levels, plateaus and realms… wherever it is you’d like to go. I specialize in Pop, Rock, Soul, Gospel, Metal and R&B. I’m not your typical voice teacher, and a lesson is anything but boring. Were going to pick the perfect song for you to start working on and getting into. This will go hand in hand with the confidence you have due to running the main 15-minute daily routine coupled with other exercises designed to expand you in the particular direction you want to go. My main concern is not only that you sound great, but look and feel like a confident singer, actor, performer, voice-over artist, narrator, public speaker or host of a new podcast. You’re voice will have depth and resonance. # singing, screaming, belting, throat manipulation, vocal fry, vocal rasp, vocal compression, singing with soul, soul singing
