Hello! Thank you for your interest in this class! This course focuses on the fundamentals that you will need to be a successful singer and performer. ***Please note that participation is a requirement in this 5-week course. There will be a 45-second to one minute performance at the end of every class that will be expected from each learner, and a performance day at the last class meeting. Stage fright is completely understandable (and okay to have while performing!), but a large portion of this course involves active singing. If you do not feel your child is ready for this, I encourage you to consider one of my other courses, such as Get That Broadway Singing Voice, or Get Your 5-Week Package.*** Thank you! Class Curriculum (this is what will be covered in each class): Class 1: -Vocal Warm-Up -Introduction to class -Breathing Techniques and Posture -Presentation with video(s) of performers followed by discussion -45 second- 1 minute performance from each student Class 2: -Vocal Warm-Up -Brief review of previous lesson -Discussion of vocal placement and different vocal registers -Presentation with video(s) of performers followed by discussion -45 second- 1 minute performance from each student Class 3: -Vocal Warm-Up -Brief review of previous material -Anatomy of the Vocal Folds (***We will be showing real vocal cords and diagrams of the larynx. Please let me know if your child is made uncomfortable by this so that I may provide a warning.**) -45 second- 1 minute performance from each student Class 4: -Vocal Warm-Up -Brief Review of Previous Material -Performance Skills for a singer -45 second- 1 minute performance from each student Class 5: Performance Day! -Each student performs a full song for the group. The goal is for them to incorporate elements of the knowledge we have learned into their performance. I will discuss this requirement in detail in class. Students are welcome to send me a video of their performance prior to Class#5 for feedback. I hope to see you in class soon! ***Refund/Transfer/Makeup Policy: My classes follow the 'Limited' refund policy model - Full refund until a week in advance, or within 24 hours of purchase (until class starts). No transfers between sections may take place once the course begins. Additionally, please understand that no refunds or makeups will be issued for student no-shows or absences. Lastly, no refunds will be issued by the teacher for technical issues on the student's end.
Learning Goals

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Lauren Layfield and thank you for your interest in my classes! I have been teaching Voice and Acting Lessons to students for over 10 years, and am so happy to be bringing what I know to Outschool.
I am happy to be offering weekly singing lessons as well as a broadway singing group class. I believe that every performer deserves to feel confident and prepared, and I am here to help give you the tools you need to put your best foot forward. In my classes, we work on healthy singing techniques, confidence, performance techniques, and much more! I teach a range of genres such as pop, rock, musical theatre, and classical voice.
I've been performing since the age of 6, and graduated from SUNY Fredonia with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Musical Theatre and a minor in Dance Studio Administration, as well as from Fordham University with a Masters in Business. I have a knowledge of music theory, dance, piano, and singing.
My goal is to deliver to my students a personalized, supportive, and educational session in which they leave class feeling more confident and equipped with the information they need to progress. I am grateful to have taught over 2,000 individual sessions with Outschool, and have learned so much about how to create, customize, and teach online singing lessons.
Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions you may have. I look forward to teaching you soon!
