Music Performance Lessons in Renton, WA. Amazing Teachers.

I have been helping and preparing musicians for performance for close to ten years. I have worked with pop singers, dancers, rock musicians, and musical theater actors.

I like to film or voice record performers so that the student walks away with something to work with. I help with stage presence, announcing, diction, dynamics, blocking, and overall polishing.

You CAN Sing those Great Songs with Full Voiced Power, Ease and Beauty and learn to "Perform" them with ease and professional mastery!

"Classical" Singing is simply using the real
voice that you came here with in the natural way that it was meant to function before we got in our own way and could no longer remember how to sing and speak freely. As I stated in my upcoming book, "All God's Chillun' Got A Voice", "No, you have not lost your voice, its just the PRODUCTION that got a little messed up!" That is fixable! All we have to do is to understand how the system works, and then adjust our actions accordingly. It works every time. Perfectly executed vocal techniques that have been proven time after time, and that have stood the tests of time WILL bring you the same successes and joys that they have been bringing other singers for eons. Successful Singers don't have to "be born with" some super duper vocal apparatus that is somehow magically better than everybody else's; they ...

The power of music comes from our capacity to share it. We call it performance, whether alone with a loved one on a beach or surrounded by screaming fans.

My job is to help you craft techniques for different situations, different performance applications, and particular moments within them. If you're playing at a coffee shop tonight and an online benefit concert the next, I'll help you translate yourself as an artist through whatever medium you choose.

My experience ranges from musical theatre to jazz to rock n' roll to acoustic folk and beyond, from intimate venues to enormous halls, and from vocal performance to piano to guitar to drums and more.

Let's play together.

Teach all levels of musical performance. Emphasis on technique, stage presence, expression, public speaking and conquering stage fright.

I can help you to develop effective practice sessions and target your goals of becoming a better guitarist.

I teach all levels of piano. ear training, music theory, music performance. I teach old fashioned classical music, as well as playing by chords (usually preferred by adult beginners) but also will incorporate
playing by chords with classical training, because it enhances knowledge of music theory. I've developed my own task analysis for learning chord piano, which means I break it down into steps. I focus on keeping the student's enthusiasm and focus on assessing and providing a positive and successful outcome from the first lesson.
