I grew up loving music and yearning to sing. Unfortunately, I didn't have the voice to pursue my passion. As a child, I studied with dozens of singing teachers in New York City and New Jersey but saw little improvement to no improvement. I studied with voice teachers from Juilliard, coaches who taught "Speech Level Singing" and those who have taught famous Pop/Rock stars and more. However, I wasn't blown away by the results.
I always knew there must be a technique that provides all the tools necessary to develop a big beautiful voice. After years of research and testing various vocal techniques, I found the teacher and the technique that changed everything. I studied the Bel Canto technique for over ten years and learned how to build a voice with a series of exercises, eliminate any and all pitch issues, gain complete control of your voice, and lots more. Many teachers claim they teach "Bel Canto," but I found only one who knew and taught me the complete technique, not just bits and pieces.
I have vocal studios in NYC and New Jersey where I teach all ages and styles. I fix my students' pitch, tone, placement, and other issues to give them a beautiful voice. I've taken some students from beginners to professionals. Some of my students, who thought they had little or no talent, are now career singers. Some people will tell you that it's impossible to develop vocal greatness and that one must be "a born singer" to sing beautifully. That is not the case. This technique holds all the answers to a beautiful voice.
Some of my students, who suffered vocal abuse, take lessons to learn how to heal an abused voice and recover from vocal nodules, cysts, and polyps without getting surgery. They can still perform and make a living singing during their recovery process.
This technique proved to be a miracle for me and many of my students. I hope it does the same for you! Best of luck on your journey!
