Piano and Flute Lessons

I provide cello instruction using traditional repertoire with modern methods. Communicating the beauty and meaning of the music is most important. All technique has this as the main goal . My approach to the cello is to make it as easy and effortless as possible. Posture and efficiency are 2 things I focus on. I have been teaching privately for 16 years after studying with Irene Sharp. Her approach to the cello and music have formed who I am as a musician.... See More

Teaches PIANO to beginning and advancing student. Offers students to participate at in auditions, evalauationss, recitals, festivals and more.

I’m glad you found me. The first thing you need to know is that anyone can improve their voice! Anyone! Singing is a very personal thing, and I enjoy teaching people how to use the voice they were given. Some of my students want to perform as a career; some do it for school, some for therapy! If you are looking for someone to help you prepare for auditions, put together a demo, perform in talent shows or musical theater, I’m what you need! If you are looking for someone to help you feel just a little more confidant because you just LOVE to sing, I can do that too! I will help you feel comfortable using your voice no matter what your goal is!
The studio is located in Eastvale, and each lesson is recorded onto a CD for my students to take home and practice with. Lessons can be in 30, 45 or 60 minute slots, ages 5 to adult. We will work on supporting your sound using your diaphragm, expanding your range and singing with an “open” voice…no straining or tensing of the throat. It is very important to learn the correct way to sing in order to preserve your voice! We only get one…it’s not an instrument you can replace!
We will pick songs to sing so you can apply your technique. If you are interested, I also work on performance and can help you put together an audition book.
I would love to speak with you! If you have any questions, please contact me!... See More
