Susan Anders Brizick Voice Studio
About
I am an independent voice teacher who specializes in working on developing healthy vocal technique while addressing all of the aspects of the individual. I encorporate posture and tension release practices in addition to helping students manage performance anxiety and express the meaning of a song. My MM in Voice Performance and Voice Pedagogy in addition to my 20+ years of teaching individual voices and choirs helps me assess where you are individually as a singer and help you to grow to your best potentialin a variety of repertoire styles.
i love helping students to sing at their best potential and watch them grow vocally and as human beings. Sharing the art of singing is so individual and wonderful.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I approach each student differently. I assess where each person is individually and vocally and work from there. I work with how each student learns best and adjust my teaching to suit their needs and singing goals. Students sing a variety of repertoire to 'cross-train' and it develop all aspects of the singing voice.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have BA in voice performance and psychology, a masters of music in voice performance and voice pedagogy. I also have partial certification for teaching CCM and much performance experience in a variety of styles. I have extensive experience teaching musical theater repertoire as well.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
