What I Wish Every Singer Knew
If we focus too much on perfection, we lose the joy and love of singing. Humans started singing and vocalizing, mimicking nature, before we had words. Singing, and music in general, is a form of communication, we use it to connect with others, to express our emotions, and to regulate our nervous system.
When we start making it about perfection, competition, and start comparing ourselves to others, we begin to lose our innate emotional connection to music, and our passion to create. So keep hold of your reason for singing, to the connection, joy, love, expression, and the skill and technique will come more naturally.
Why I Teach
I’ve had all kinds of teachers — some who tried to fit me into a box, and some who made space for me to grow into myself. Those are the ones who changed my life. That’s who I try to be now. I love helping people feel safe, supported, and excited to discover their voice through music.
