The Voice Lab’s Mission

Our mission is to cultivate transformative relationships through voice and music education.

The core components of private lessons and workshops are not just technique and repertoire, but soul-healing and personal development through sound and song.

We value exceptional teaching and commitment to learning over credentials. We value honest expression over “correctness” and classical definitions of “proper” music making. We acknowledge power dynamics through agency-giving practices and grace to make mistakes. We value diversity and strive continually to create spaces that are of, by, and for our clients and team.

Voice Pedagogy for Whole Humans

Love your students (even more)!

You already know that voice work is a deeply personal and healing process, and bringing your best to your students motivates you to keep building your skills.

You also know that there is always more to learn, more to examine and explore. Deep understanding comes from asking hard questions and grappling with answers that shift our perspective. And it starts within you.

Let’s learn together to become better teachers, artists, and whole humans.
