About Me:
With singing, we utilize this approach: technique that follows in this order: body stretching, breathing, diction, range and pitch building and repertoire, where we focus on perfecting songs and working on stage presence, eliminating stage fright and creating personality. For the piano and drums, we start with scales and theory, which helps to build performance.
