Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
We start with the PVE (Professional Voice Evaluation) where we meet with the client either in-person at our Roswell location or on Zoom. During this sesion we diagnose and assess the student's voice with scales that show us the student's strengths and challenges. The student usually sings part of a song during this session. This process allows us to determine the student's Vocal Category, and we then design a specific lesson plan for that student based on The Eight Steps of Vocal Development. This is a systematic and organized way of training and developing voices far different from the usual "warm up, sing a song, and go home unchanged" method of most teachers. In lessons, we cover Breath Management, Lower Register (belt), Upper Register (head), Register Connection, and advanced skills like power, dynamics, flexibility, and riffs and runs. Lessons are weekly, at the same time each week.
