I have been teaching voice in Davis for 10 years. I accept students of all ages, and have taught students as young as 5 and as old as 70. My background focuses on classical music but I teach a variety of singing styles and the health and longevity of your instrament.

Most of my students come weekly for 45 or 60 minutes. Generally the first half of the lesson we work on air movement though warm ups and exercises, and the second half of the lesson we apply this to music that we chose together. Style, range and skill level are all important factors in choosing music that both meet the students interest, while also suiting out needs to apply what we have been working on in the first part of the lesson. Depending on the students interest, current level, and desire, we also work on musicianship and music theory.
