Frequently Asked Questions
What do you teach?
My emphasis is teaching a healthy, reliable and efficient vocal technique based on concrete ideas surrounding natural breathing, physiology, and vocal mechanics to suit all contemporary music styles.
The lessons are designed to be fun, practical, interactive and informative. Every voice is unique, so each lesson is tailor made to the individual needs of the student. I teach all styles of contemporary voice – Pop, R&B, Jazz and Musical Theatre, covering all aspects of singing including:
| * Repertoire Choice | * Body Alignment |
| * Efficient Breath Management | * Vowel modification and speech level singing |
| * Performance and Microphone Technique | * Song interpretation |
| * Stage presence | * Audition Preparation |
I have an open door policy with younger students, where parents are welcome to observe lessons at there own discretion.
