    Greetings! My name is Sphie (Pronounced Sfee). I offer a fun and focused approach to singing and piano lessons. It is my goal to meet the individual's personal needs. I offer training to all levels and ages. Advantages to my lessons include: ~Increased self-confidence ~Reduced stress and anxiety ~Increased patience ~Aptitude in technique, performance and theory (music) ~Overal sense of well-being My goal is to creatively empower education in your preferred course. I offer this education as a tool for overall lifestyle enhancement outside of lessons. I have spent the past ten plus years teaching all ages and accept beginner to advanced students. Genres Taught: ~Pop ~Jazz ~Classical ~R&B ~Soul ~Reggae ~Rock And More...Improvisation and chord chart reading are also exercised. I received an A.A.S. in Vocal Performance from McNally-Smith College of Music in the Twin Cities, and studied Piano, Classical Opera and Musical Theater throughout my youth. I specialize in classical and pop-based vocal training and piano instruction. I am also a Hatha/Vinyasa, ERYT200 Yoga Instructor specializing in vinyasa, hatha, and restorative yoga technique for increased flexibility, stress relief and restoration. I teach all age ranges from beginner to advanced. I have trained nationwide with instructors such as Shiva Rea, Seane Corn and Hala Khouri. Outside of the above, I also have training in HImalayan Singing Bowl Therapy and treat a variety of physical and mental imbalances including stress, anxiety, trauma and PTSD. I bring this learning style into my classroom in generating a restorative approach to learning. Here is my article on the TakeLessons Blog about being a confident singer! http://takelessons.com/blog/how-to-sing-with-confidence-z02

    I've had a great experience working with Sphie. Her know-how and patience comes across in every interaction, and she has helped me develop a strong meditation practice. I highly recommend her.
