During this summer 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 summer. This class is for beginners who do not have much experience with singing lessons or vocal exercises. 

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! 

Students at any level are welcome to take lessons. 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 at my piano, just as I would do an in-person lesson. 

In the first class, 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 and will progress at their pace. The exercises will be modeled for the student, and then the student will have the opportunity to repeat and receive instruction and helpful evaluation. A practice sheet will be provided for the student to track practice time throughout the week. 

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