Sing beautifully with confidence!

Understanding the essentials of good singing builds confidence. Jocelyn emphasizes healthy posture, proper breath management, and muscular control to improve vocal tone. As you begin to master the art of singing, performing becomes more effortless and fun.

Voice students record each lesson and take notes afterwards in their Voice Journals. Progress is made with regular practice outside of lessons

Challenge your comfort zone!

"If you can talk, you can sing. If you can walk, you can dance." ~ African proverb

Feeling shy? That's perfectly normal. If you have the desire to sing, you also have the ability to make your dream a reality. Voice Lessons are for professionals and serious amateurs who value taking their musical talent to the next level.

GROUP VOICE LESSONS

Students are also welcome to take shared lessons with friends or family members. Small Group Voice Lessons* are for children and adults who love to sing. Ms. Kasper uses easy-to-follow instructions to help students understand singing through a process of fun, educational discovery.

Students learn:

natural voice use
healthy tone production
the fundamentals of music
a variety of age-appropriate songs
poise, confidence, performance skills
how to prepare for talent shows, auditions, church solos, etc.

The Young Voice:

It was once believed that children needed to mature before their voices could be trained. Some people still believe this myth.

While it is true that some skills take time to develop, good vocal habits can be taught at a young age. Vocal instruction should be done with special care and attention to the needs of growing voices. Ms. Kasper has extensive training and experience in guiding the adolescent male voice through its change.

At our conservatory, we love planting seeds of musical excellence and watching our talented sprouts grow.

*Small Group vs. Private Lessons

Sometimes parents wonder how Small Group Lessons can be as effective or even more so than the private lessons they are familiar with from their own childhoods.

While one-on-one instruction is appropriate in certain situations, learning with friends in a small group can result in surprisingly fast progress. Children tend to excel with peer learning, and music lessons are no exception. You'll see improved social and cognitive skills like listening, demonstrating, cooperation, and good behavior.

Healthy competition is fostered when students hear their peers accomplishing something they thought was impossible. Children learn to stay on task whether the spotlight is on them or not. They learn self-reliance and master practice skills throughout the lesson.

Students are regularly challenged to surpass expectations and are encouraged to prepare for and participate in informal performances and fun, year-end recitals for family and friends. Parents appreciate and children flourish with our low-pressure approach.

The keys to successful and rewarding music-making include: regular attendance, sufficient home practice, preparation of assignments, personal responsibility, and mutual respect. Follow these steps consistently, and you and your child will reap the benefits of professional music training.
