What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice where you have privacy, sometimes you have to belt the note to get it and knowing your sister is in the next room sometimes makes us want to hold back. Don't be afraid to try something new and just go for it. If it doesn't come out right then that is new material for our next lesson. Don't be afraid of the mirror. Use it to watch your body react to the things we talk about in lessons. And practice your breathing. I want you to breathe from your diaphragm so often that it becomes the only way you breathe.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If you're child asks, they are ready. I started when I was 4 or 5. It may not go smoothly and there may be a break in their desire for lessons, but even if a child stops after a few months, when the time comes for them to start again they will be able to recall all those early lessons and bring back that existing knowledge. Do Not ever force your child to take any sort of music lesson. They need to find the passion themselves. And it is never too late to start lessons either. You have never missed your chance to start exploring your own voice.
When will I start to see results?
This is solely dependent on the student. It may be the first lesson, it may be the 10th lesson. Somedays a student is going to walk out of lessons feeling on top of the world and as if they accomplished everything there is to know about voice. As such somedays a student will walk out feeling let down by themselves or like they sounded terrible or took steps back. The nature of the beast is the vocal instrument is your body, so everything you do has an effect. But to see results that can happen as early as the first trial lesson.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I have had the amazing opportunity to work with many incredible teachers. My vocal coaches Frank Pitts, Bruce Bennett, and Sandra Dudley have all become great friends of mine. They have never stopped pushing and believing in me even when I didn't. And now I am an international selling recording artist. Also my earlier teachers like Mr. Alan MacNair pushed me to get here. He was the first person to be honest with me about the work that was to come as I began music school. I would not be here if it wasn't for the many (too many to list) teachers who have inspired me.
