Top Singing & Voice Lessons in Toms Brook, VA

I use vocalizes to teach change in the voice and also different types of music to attain a better sound. I try to make it as physical as possible since so much of the effort depends on the brain. I want to help each student achieve their goal. Together we can get to that sound which is uniquely you.

A greater emphasis placed on breath control, diction, and vocal production on all aspects of vocal performance.

I teach beginners to professionals and everyone in between. All genres taught and good proper technique applied to all styles. I teach projection, resonation, good intonation/pitch, pure clear tonal quality, training of ear and eye(reading music), expressive singing, flexibility/agility of range, and expanding range, stage presence, confidence, and microphone technique. I teach the foundation of Classical bel canto technique to every style for powerful, passionate singing.

Training to increase vocal range and performance.

I have been teaching voice/singing for over 8 years. I have been performing and recording as lead singer and songwriter in bands for over 25 years. As a Berklee College of Music alumnus, I studied ear training and solfege as well as jazz and harmony. Many years of choir and musical theater experience in school. No classical or opera experience. I provide a core of proper technique and vocal exercises combined with working on repertoire (songs!) based on the students interest. From jazz standards to modern pop, rock and r&b.

Singing is so fun and students love it especially when they see how much they improve with their voice after just having a few lessons. I have been teaching voice for over 10 years and will work with the student to build them a strong, healthy voice technique!

During singing lessons we usually have 5-10 minutes of warming up and singing vocal exercises. We will then work on the student's song choices and cover in depth with training in breathing, range, pitch, stylistic techniques, and presentation.
