Experience Teaching:

The right vocal technique is everything and you can waste years and years and thousands of dollars pursuing the wrong singing technique. By investing in yourself with the right teacher, you can become part of the elite singers who know the top secrets and exclusive methods that aren't taught anywhere else. I'm known in the industry for using a unique combination of top exercises that I have learned from teachers around the world. I've also developed dozens of vocal techniques that are customized for individual students. These techniques are new approaches that have transformed the way my students view singing. I also teach the mixed voice, which is neglected by most teachers, who still only teach chest and head voice. True mixed voice allows you to sing using your face, helping you to bounce the sound off the tiny caves and bones of your face, which allows you to sing 100 times louder, with more power and much higher. I also teach a modern approach for vocal resonance. Vocal resonance was taught in operatic studies years ago and has been ignored and neglected by many of today's modern vocal coaches. Since the invention of the microphone, the singer's technical focus has been on vocal placement, and creating vocal textures. Belting is now studied with modern techniques and modern vocal placement. Though these techniques are effective for proper placement and keep your voice healthy, the art and technique of vocal resonance has been lost. Resonance connects your voice to your body, your mind and your soul. When you add vocal resonance techniques to modern vocal methods, your voice becomes more powerful, and displays a beautiful depth with rich tone and connects your sound to your emotional expression. It also helps immensely with pitch. I've helped hundreds of students find their resonance, some who originally couldn't find their pitch. After studying with me, they quickly found their voice and their perfect pitch.
