Brian is hands-down one of the best vocal coaches out there. He really understands the anatomy and…read morescience behind singing, and he explains what's happening in your body in a way that makes it easy to understand and recreate on your own. He's not cheap, but he's absolutely worth it if you want to learn efficiently instead of spending money on endless lessons that don't move the needle. I've been learning from him for almost a year, and I've learned so much more in that time than I did in four years at another studio. Thanks Brian!!

A little update here on yelp. It's only been four lessons, but I just wanted to take a moment to…read moreappreciate you by saying thank you very much for doing what you do!!! Music has always been there for me through many difficult parts of my life, but I've always felt like there was this gap between music and I that I could never close. I never felt like I had any talent to immerse myself, or further myself in it. Always just singing to myself, or when I'm alone, because that's the only time I have the courage to explore my voice. I have to say I've never felt this great singing before and it's only been four lessons. This year for me is big on self investment and rediscovering myself and where my interests/passion lies. You've gotta take some risks in life sometimes and taking a chance on vocal lessons with you has been by far one of the best decisions I've made in a while!. I'm still super stoked and I'm looking forward to what's to come!! Thanks voice dad!

Sarah is the best! I came to her for help with my background vocal ability. I'm a touring…read moreside-musician and have worked for many decades on top-level tours. I've always sang background vocals, but was lacking in technique. I've taken lessons with other vocal teachers, but found them to give one-size-fits-all warm ups, without much explanation of why I was doing them. Sarah tailored exercises to my needs and has a deep understanding of the physiology of the voice which really helped me understand the mechanics of how the voice works. After just a few weeks, I'm singing more solidly, with more range and no strain. I just finished an intense round of rehearsals and had zero voice fatigue, what a difference!

Sarah was able to help me uncover my authentic voice while understanding the meaning behind what I was singing. Sarah's holistic approach helped me feel more confident in my voice and organic sound. I also felt very cared for by Sarah; she asked me about my piece and the goals I had with it prior to my lesson. She checked in often and cultivated a safe space of experimentation and play. I would recommend Sarah in a heartbeat, and look forward to the opportunity I get to work with her again!

I cannot recommend Paloma enough. I started working with her for muscle tension dysphonia, and she…read morehas been such a gift in this process. She's incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and thorough. The laryngeal massages and targeted vocal exercises she's guided me through have made such a difference in helping me understand my voice and reduce tension. What I appreciate most is how supported I feel during our sessions. She truly listens and tailors everything to what my voice needs that day. If you're struggling with vocal tension or MTD, Paloma is someone you absolutely want on your team.

I'm not surprised that Paloma has perfect. Five star review on yelp - I'm so glad I went based on…read morethese recommendations when I reached out to her for lessons I had not sung in decades when I began working with Paloma in October, with one very meaningful goal: to prepare Ave Maria for my mother's 80th birthday Mass. Paloma is a seasoned professional with an absolutely beautiful voice, and she made the entire process approachable, easy to digest, and genuinely fun. She taught me how the voice truly works--breath support, diaphragm use, vocal anatomy, resonance, tongue placement, and effective exercises that rebuilt my voice with care and intention. Her depth of knowledge is exceptional, yet she explains everything in a way that feels clear and accessible. Most importantly, I felt extremely comfortable and supported every step of the way. Thanks to Paloma's expertise, patience, and encouragement, I was able to deliver a heartfelt and beautiful tribute to my mother. If you are returning to singing after time away or preparing for something truly meaningful, I cannot recommend Paloma highly enough.

Yen Lin is an absolute masterful instructor in both piano and voice for all ages and proficiency…read morelevels. She is a rare find especially for the rates she charges. The lessons are taught at her home but she has two beautifully appointed studios separated from the residence providing a distraction free one on one instruction. She has also partnered with a guitar instructor offering lessons. The area just outside of the studio is a beautiful deck with pretty good views of highland park with comfy chairs (and within earshot of the lessons) which makes it fun to hear the progress of my kiddos. At the end of each "semester" she holds a recital with the students which I find pretty darn cute but also very entertaining. You will not find a more enthusiastic and positive instructor that truly cares for her students and their progress in music.

He is by far the most talented, approachable, and genuinely passionate coach I've had. In addition to having a beautiful voice, his knowledge of music and vocal technique spans multiple genres, and he explains concepts in a way that's clear and easy to understand. He adapts his teaching style to how you learn. In my case, he uses visuals and videos to break down how the voice works while emphasizing healthy technique. He quickly understands your voice, identifies areas for improvement, and still gives you the freedom to choose what you want to focus on during each lesson. I'd recommend him to anyone, whether you're just starting out or already have experience and are looking to refine your style or develop more advanced skills!

I'm a Juilliard-trained singer, and have over 20 years of experience singing in various genres, from classical, to jazz, to pop, to soul. I also have a history of incredibly intense stage fright and performance anxiety (it actually led to me totally quitting singing for several years). As a result, I've worked hard to study my nervous system and understand what is happening in the body and mind when one has a freeze (or fight/flight) response on stage— I cover nervous system training with my students in addition to vocal technique, because I recognize how important this knowledge is to stay grounded in the body and perform at your best, both on and off stage. I love what I do and care greatly for the success of all of my students, whatever that may mean for them. Let's have some fun making music!
