    About Jennifer R.

    (3)
    Having grown up singing, dancing and acting and training and working in LA and NY, I LOVE watching students grow and gain self esteem. I was classically trained and chose to move into a Broadway Style of singing. I also sing Jazz, Contemporary and Country. Through breathing and story telling, you will become someone who stands out from the crowd. Anyone can sing, but few can tell a story. You will learn how to break down your song, as you would a monologue, so you can, more than adequately, tell your story. Age appropriate songs are important. Being able to relate to what you're singing is an important component in your performance. I expect you to practice, and as you do, you will progress faster than those who don't. I ran my own theatre company for 8 years. Full scale musicals for all ages and an intensive children's program in the summer months. I was the voice of Shadow the Raccoon for the Animated Feature Noah's Park for 20 years. I have also done various radio and tv spots. While teaching voice, I am also a Talent Agent with Johnson Talent Agency, servicing San Francisco and Los Angeles. We are a boutique agency for Film, TV, Commercials, Industrials, VO and Print. I LOVE my jobs. Continuing to teach voice helps me with my creative side, while I submit talent to get their break into this vast world of performing. I hope to get to meet you very soon.

    Jennifer is an incredible voice teacher! She brings an expertise & knowledge to many aspects of singing. My daughter is not a natural born singer and through lessons, Jenn was able to bring out a voice and presence that I had no idea was in there! Those lessons helped my daughter get cast as Annie - in Annie! That wouldn't have happened without the help of Jennifer! As for me, I have always had problems with my voice. I lose my voice often and my throat is constantly in pain. The training that I received from Jenn helped me learn to breathe and speak correctly. I no longer have the problems with my voice and throat that I used to. I am thankful for that training! Jenn is awesome and I can't recommend her training enough!!!!!!

    I can honestly say that if i hadn’t studied under Jenn i wouldn’t physically be able to sing today. I came under her tutelage almost 6 years ago and she helped correct some bad techniques I had been taught in the past. I was raw and trying to produce sound by forcing things with my throat muscles; if it weren’t for her I’d probably be suffering from vocal nodules or something worse. Jenn is smart, empathetic and honest. If she makes you a promise to help you reach a vocal or professional goal, she sees it through. She’ll also make a point of getting to know her students which makes learning from her easy and safe! I started off a vocally raw kid from California and she helped pave the way for me to become a working Actor & vocalist in New York. I owe so much to this woman. I wish I could give her a higher ranking than 5 stars

    Jennifer really knows what she is doing, her experience and own personal talent speak volumes. I personally am NOT a natural born singer but with Jennifer's lessons I was able to hold my own in ensembles and even a couple small solo parts. She provides not only knowledge but inspires confidence in all of her students and truly wants them to succeed.
