During this fall semester ongoing class, up to two students can join! This is a fantastic way to try out affordable voice lessons or join with a sibling.  This class will run for two months in the fall. This class is for beginners who do not have much experience with singing lessons or vocal exercises. 

Students can join at any time throughout the semester. Lessons will not build upon each other, but rather compliment each other. Session topics will be learner-directed according to the students enrolled. Topics may include practicing correct breathing, posture, or stretching vocal range.

Developing vocal control and confidence starts with healthy singing habits. Having one-on-one instruction is helpful to encourage students in their strengths and trouble shoot any problems. Vocal health should be the top priority for singers, but this is so often ignored. Singers only get one voice, so it is important to take care of it! 

My formal training was classical, and lessons will be taught from that approach. The students do not need to have any previous experience. The lessons will be taught similarly to how I teach my in-person lessons. 

In the first class that the student joins, we will have introductions and discuss the goals of the student(s).  Each class will begin with breathing and vocal exercises. The goal of these exercises is to increase agility, strength, and vocal range as well as improve posture and form good habits. I will offer advice and suggestions for improvement. Each lesson will be tailored to the needs of the individual students. The exercises will be modeled for the student, and then the student will have the opportunity to repeat and receive instruction and helpful evaluation. 

Students will be taught correct posture whether sitting or standing, stretching and breathing techniques, how to control their tone, and vocal agility.
