“Sarah helped me reach my goal of going to my dream college, Berklee, with a scholarship!”

-Adia

“Sarah brought out my daughter’s talent & confidence in a way I never knew was possible.”
-Jessica

Hear it from current & graduated singers……

“Sarah has given me the confidence and support to follow my passion further than I ever thought I could”

-Chloe

-Soha

Your Enrollment Includes:

Get all the support you need during your lessons with Sarah and in-between.
These resources are designed to fill the gaps that I assessed in our collective singer community last year, and let you start deepening your learning in between your lessons, not just when you’re at the studio, but when you’re at home as well (or in the car, or at the beach, or anytime!).  
Everything is optional so you never have to feel overwhelmed or like you’re cramming. 
Studio class, the resource library, and remote mini-lessons alone will be a game-changer for you. 
Everything included will help you feel more supported by me, more connected to your art & will enhance your development as a singer & artist!  
Sincerely, 
Sarah

on-demand resource library

Z

On-Demand Resource Library

Get me when you need me in between your lessons with exercises, warmups, mini-lessons, and more. The library is a body of resources like breath exercises, meditations, centering moments (like before an audition or performance), vocalizations, and other warmups.  The library will grow & grow throughout the season as you ask for what you want more help with, and will be a place to turn to help support your practice and learning when you’re outside the studio so you can keep learning no matter where or when you are! 

studio class

Z

Studio Class

Held throughout the season, studio class is an opportunity for you to practice auditioning or performing in front of your peers so that you can strengthen that skillset in a safe, supportive environment and refine your ability to sing in front of an audience so you can nail it when it really counts.  

remote mini-lessons

Z

Ongoing Support Between Lessons (aka Remote Mini-Lessons)

Real-time feedback, for example when you’re stuck or prepping for auditions even when you’re not in a lesson.  This can be video, audio, or written feedback. For example, you can send a video recording and asking me for help with a concept or section of a piece; send in self-tape takes to get help finding the best one; or send an audio recording of a section of a song you’re stuck on to get help, etc)

parent office hours & strategy sessions

Z

Office Hours for Parent Checkins & Strategy Sessions

If you’re a parent, during office hours you’ll be able to get updates from me on your child’s progress over the phone – a deeper dive than the quick checkin we can have after a lesson – you can also get audition help, college/conservatory application advisory & summer program advisory during office hours at no additional cost.

        What will YOUR story be?

        These are all real students and their real results after enrolling. 

        Clara was accepted into the Juilliard pre-college program (pretty swag!)

        Ryan went from not being able to sing in front of anyone but Sarah to performing in front of her entire school, hundreds of her peers, with total confidence!

        Aaliyah became confident enough in her voice to apply to Berklee for songwriting and she’s headed there this fall!

        Kate couldn’t sing very high without straining or losing her voice, and now she can sing a whole octave higher, no prob, and is killing it in lead roles!

        Lucas went from getting only ensemble parts in his school shows to getting the LEAD!  

        Rori went from not being able to sing in front of anyone (barely even Sarah!) to winning a scholarship for voice and performing in front of her entire school!

        Evelyn went from not being able to sing in front of an audience to wow-ing everyone (even singers much older than her!) in our spring recital!

        Yusef went from just getting small parts to getting leads all year long! 

        This can be you, too. Really! 
        All you need is the right support and you’ll get there, too!
