Beginner training plan
Your first lessonFirst lesson I will introduce the basics on how the voice works —it’s an instrument that can be broken down into three parts— what to expect during lessons, and then get to know what you want out of lessons and your experience.
Lesson 2-3We will start practicing vocal exercises where we develop breath control, vocal fold dexterity, and resonance space shaping of the mouth and throat cavity. I will guide you through this development on the piano! And I will model what you should sound like.
Lesson 4-10You’re getting more comfortable with the vocal exercises. You’re feeling slightly clearer on the different parts of your instrument and how to simply relax into it. A lot of singing is allowing your body to lead —we talk with a lot of good vocal technique actually!— instead of your ear or anxiety. We’ve picked a song of your choice and we have a little time at the end to work on it.
Lesson 11+We continue strengthening whatever area of focus for the vocal instrument (air support, vocal fold dexterity, or resonance space shaping) and spend more time on our song at the end of the lesson. Everyone moves at their own pace, so I support you accordingly!
Advanced training plan
Your first lessonI want to get the download on your training and what coaching style you’ve seen that you’ve liked in the past. I do a vocal assessment and you perform two songs of choice for me (one fast and slow tempo song). We set goals for your vocal training and if we have time, go through some vocal exercises!
