My approach to vocal work in the studio:
Breath and relaxation because if you can breathe and stay relaxed
you are on your way to singing. The singer is after all a wind instrument and connecting "wind" or "air" we call breath, to
sound, is the foundation for all singing, any style, from baby beginner to lifelong professional.
To create a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere
and experience, incorporating elements of yoga and various styles of singing to find the technique that is tailored to your
specific needs as a singer.
To be open to all styles of singing and vocalization, including
meditative vocalizing, incorporating vocalizing during movement for dancers, or vocalizing during workouts,
particularly stretching, for athletes.
To provide a path to discover each student's unique
sound, not a manufactured pop sound or a mimcry of another artist but the completely organic sound of each individual.
To help discover repertoire that best shows off this unique sound and provide opportunities
for performance, either by studio sponsored recitals or by sharing audition information.
