I put off taking voice lessons for years because I thought I was a hopeless case. Now, one of my favorite things is singing karaoke at a piano bar." Harold L., California
ONLINEMy practice is primarily online. Students are from across North America and parts of Europe. Online benefits include: do them from anywhere - from busy cities to sparsely populated countryside; set up your practice space; avoid the nerves of singing in-person; associate your place of practice with a place of singing.
Perfect for busy parents, people with mobility or social challenges and people who work from home. |
IN-PERSONMy travels take me to places all over the place. Whether I'm touring, on residency, or traveling to teach other students, I bounce between Europe and the East & West Coasts of the US. Regardless, you'll get a lesson each week online or in-person. You then, of course, have the option of continuing online.
My studio is located in Waynesboro, Virginia. |
WORKSHOPS
Shape a workshop around your community or organization's needs. I specialize in improvisation, technique, extended voice workshops, and voice-movement-meditation workshops. I've run singing workshops for community groups in Belfast, voice, body & improvisation workshops for the Autonomous University of Baja California (Mexico), and technique workshops for community, music, and university groups in Europe, Latin America, and the US.
Investment rates: We can tailor a mutually amenable rate based on group size, travel distance, and any special requests for the workshop or group. |
I run specials at various points throughout the year so follow me on Instagram and Facebook or subscribe to my newsletter.
