Top Singing & Voice Lessons in Chesterfield, VA

Individual coaching for auditions, choirs, chorus, shows & solos. Focus on Breath Control, Breath Support & Perfect/Relative Pitch.

I have been teaching Voice and Singing Lessons for 10 years and have performed in many different styles and venues. I instruct students from a classical style of singing to Broadway and Pop styles. I approach lessons from a classical and safe manner and help coach the student in ear training, and proper singing methods to protect the throat and vocal chords. I adjust my methods to each student to make a truly individualized experience for each singer. I plan professional student shows though out the year to give each student a practical application to their instruction!

Singing

I accept students of all musical backgrounds beginner to professional.
All styles of repertoire are encouraged (classical, musical theatre, pop)
My teaching methods use posture and breathing techniques, influenced in part by Yoga and the Alexander Technique. I strive to help with better body awareness, tension free singing and exciting exploration of musicality.
I also work with my students on stage presence, phrasing and style to help them deliver their best performance, connect to the joy of singing and the fun of making music!
I can help you start from the very beginning, refresh your skills, gain confidence, and fine tune old and new material.
It's time to get to work!

My first priority is to inspire and motive. Find out the students wants and needs, then tackle them head on. Exploring proper voice techniques and how to use the voice. Proper breathing technique. Learn music theory fundamentals and understanding the language of music so it can be applied to the voice. Phrasing, intonation and song building.
