I’m Kenya M., and I’m so happy you’re here and ready to begin this vocal journey. I’ve been a professional singer for over 20 years, performing throughout the U.S., Canada, and Italy in a variety of musical styles - from Classical and Opera to Latin Jazz and Brazilian Bossa Nova; and have even contributed to Grammy nominated albums. Whether I’m on stage with my Brazilian Jazz ensemble, or performing classical works, music has is (and has always been) at the center of my life. As a Professional Vocalist, Speaker, and award-winning Confidence Coach (and mother of two teens), I’ve had the joy of working with thousands of singers and leaders helping each of them build confidence, trust in their voice, and a deeper connection to their sound. I look forward to seeing you in a lesson, workshop or virtual program soon!
I am a professional vocalist and instructor with over 20 years experience sharing classical, opera and Brazilian music around the world. I specialize in working with students ages, 9 to 17 years old, but love to work with adults as well. I offer a variety of lesson options for students, including private 1-on-1, small group and workshops. Whether your area of focus is classical, musical theater, pop or jazz - I can help you develop confidence, strength in voice and stage presence. Each lesson includes exercises in rhythm, music theory and of course, repertoire! I provide a warm and encouraging environment where students can explore their favorite genres and develop their vocal skills at their own pace. Some of my students have even gone on to lead professional musical careers themselves! I teach in my studio in San Mateo, CA (near downtown) and virtually.
I offer personalized voice lessons tailored for beginner, intermediate and aspiring performers singers of all ages. Whether you're a young aspiring vocalist or an adult exploring your musical passion, our lessons are designed to build confidence, enhance technique, and foster a love for singing. Here are some benefits to working with me: Personalized Attention: Every voice is different. I work with each student individually, ensuring they learn at their own pace and receive tailored guidance that helps them grow. Confidence Building: Singing isn’t just about hitting the right notes—it's about finding the confidence to share your voice with the world. My lessons focus on both technique and self-expression to bring out the best in you! Warm, Fun, and Structured Approach: As a vocal instructor, I’m known for being patient, encouraging, and fun. I’ll make sure you understand every concept we cover, and you’ll always feel confident about your ability to improve. Music You Love: From pop, musical theater, jazz and classical, we sing songs that keep students excited and motivated to practice and improve.
As a vocal instructor, I’m known for being patient, encouraging, and fun. My students feel supported every step of the way as we build confidence and technique together. I ensure every concept is clearly understood, so you're never left guessing. Drawing on my background as a classically trained vocalist and former professional dancer, I integrate movement and breath work into lessons, helping students develop vocal strength, expression, and control in a holistic, engaging, and joyful learning experience.
