    Get singing lessons tailored to your voice and vocal range. Meet with an experienced vocal coach.

    Singing is the ultimate emotional expression, the apex of laughter and weeping, the most powerful and vulnerable artistic medium. This innately human instrument is both delicate and sensitive, but can be heard over a hundred-piece orchestra. It feels at home in any musical genre, and invites its possessor to experiment and expand with it. That's my approach to singing: experimentation, expansion, and emotional expression. Your voice is as unique as your fingerprint and your experience of singing is entirely your own, so I work with you to customize a program. Based in the work of Kristen Linklater and the pedagogy of classical voice coaching, my approach suits any genre and style. Let's develop yours together.

    About Isaac W.

    CUSTOM-MADE FOR YOU Learning involves playfulness, curiosity, and personal connection. I've studied how people learn and how people play, along with 25 years of professional and performance experience, and I focus it entirely on you. We start with what you love, discover what you already know, then make unexpected connections to build something together. TECHNOLOGICALLY ADVANCED Over Zoom I use a three-camera system so you can see me face-to-face like an in-person lesson, with two cameras focused on my hands and whiteboard space so you're seeing things from my perspective. This helps us communicate and accelerates your learning. PERSONAL AND FUN Learning, to me, is a wildly creative process. It feels suspiciously like goofing off when we absorb information faster than we expected. It's my job to help you play, to get you over your hurdles, to explain and demonstrate things in a way that makes sense TO YOU (not just to me), and to help you have fun. EXPERIENCED I hold degrees from Cornish College of the Arts and University of Washington. I've taught at the university level, taught private lessons for individuals and classes for children and adults for twenty years, and created playfulness-based educational and skill-building programs over Zoom for individuals and households. I can’t wait to meet you.
