Again and again, I'm surprised about how many singing students who have taken lessons before don't know the difference between chest voice and head voice.

It's usually one of these scenarios:
- they have taken lessons from a teacher who is only classically trained. If that teacher is a soprano,...

Warming up your voice is important. But you should do it in a very intentional way, not just do random exercises that may not even suit your voice type or help you address any problems.

I always teach a neutral larynx. But in order to understand what I mean, you have to understand how the larynx moves naturally when singing and speaking. This is a lesson to understand the laryngeal movement and constriction.

Register transitions and dealing with your passaggio, or your bridge, are always tricky. That's why it's a great idea to focus on these in your warm-up. Here are some exercise ideas for you.

Hey singing friends, today I just want to chat a little bit about what it's really like to be a vocal coach on YouTube. I've been loving the journey so much, but I've also been doing a lot of thinking...

I'm so excited about today's collaboration with Jeff Rolka. He is such a great vocal pedagogue and has become a great friend, so make sure to also check out the video on his channel in which I teach about the soprano passaggio:
