You will be prompted to enter your payment information when scheduling your first appointment.

Once you’ve entered your payment information you won’t need to enter it again! You will be automatically charged upon the completion of each lesson you schedule.

ARRIVE ON TIME

All lessons start on the hour or half-hour. Please arrive as close to your designated time as possible.  My studio is wide open, and some singers are shy. For this reason, I ask that singers do not arrive early.  Chances are I will be running a couple of minutes over with the student before you.  I have a tea bar set up for singers to enjoy a cup of tea while waiting.

 

recitals

We have at least one big recital each year, and several performance classes.

  • Friends and family are welcome to come to recitals

  • Before a student can participate in a recital they must show that they are ready

 

online lessons

Online lessons are a great way to save time and transportation expenses. 

  • Singers often feel more at ease in their own home

  • Scheduling is more flexible

My primary platform for online lessons is Zoom. If you prefer to use a different platform, please contact me and I will try to accommodate you.

accompaniment

Singers are welcome to bring their own accompanist to class. Most contemporary singers use karaoke tracks, or bring their guitars. I have a studio guitar and a studio piano available to students.

 

Mutual respect

Voice lessons are all about trust. I trust you to come into my home and bring your best self to the studio, and you trust me to be present, aware, and kind; utilizing the best of my mental faculties and years of experience to your lesson.
 

  • Medical Issues: please let me know if you have any medical conditions or mental health issues that may affect your voice. Many medications affect the voice, and it is important for me to know how to help you keep your voice healthy.

  • Cancellations Due to Illness: Without at least 48 hours notice, singers are responsible for the full payment of their lesson. This includes cancellations due to illness, and emergency. Chances are that at some point in your vocal career you will have to sing with a cold or illness. Unless you have a fever, severe cough, or are vomiting, chances are we can work through the illness. Besides, singing is great for the body, and most people end their lesson feeling much better than when they started.

  • Safe Spaces and Boundaries: I am not a therapist, nor do I pretend to be. However, singing can be emotional. We all have issues - I have tissues.


You are a valued singer in a safe place when you are in my studio!
