I have gone to many different voice teachers, including one of the top celebrity coaches, and none of them were able to pinpoint a small problem I had, except for Laurel.  When she pointed it out, it made a big difference in my tone and greatly improved my singing performance.  I believe Laurel can take any voice and make it better and better.

Actually, I was being much more conscious of when I was using my \u201chead voice\u201d or tightening up my neck (and shoulders), and would then relax to more of a stomach\/chest voice \u2014 I could still change pitch, emphasize with differing degrees of loudness, etc.  I was smiling, inside (and out, as is normal for me) feeling that I was in more control of my voice. So far this is a million times better than it\u2019s been in such a long time, and I OWE IT ALL TO YOU!!!!

I had done some of my own vocal work in the past, but felt like I was not improving like I wanted to. Upon taking lessons with her, very quickly I saw many areas of my vocals improve. I used to think I needed to strain my vocal chords in order to reach those higher notes. But now I'm able to get to those higher notes with much more ease. Not only has my vocal talent grown, but my performance anxiety has considerably lessened. I performed in one showcase she put on, as well as a cover night at a wine bar that she hooked me up with. She is very encouraging and supporting and always wants me to reach out whenever I do an open mic. I would highly recommend her to anyone that wants to improve their vocal talent or start taking lessons!<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementskit-commentor-bio\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementkit-commentor-details \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementskit-commentor-image ekit-testimonial--avatar\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"70\" height=\"70\" src=\"https:\/\/www.laurelsherwood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/austin-e1690317629409.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.laurelsherwood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/austin-e1690317629409.jpg 302w, https:\/\/www.laurelsherwood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/austin-e1690317629409-257x300.jpg 257w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 302px) 100vw, 302px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementskit-profile-info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<strong class=\"elementskit-author-name\">- Austin B.<\/strong>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementskit-author-des\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementskit-single-testimonial-slider elementskit-testimonial-slider-block-style elementskit-testimonial-slider-block-style-two   elementor-repeater-item-bf1b751\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementskit-commentor-header\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementskit-icon-content elementskit-watermark-icon \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"icon icon-music1\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementskit-commentor-content\"><p>I'm so glad I found Laurel!

goals as a singer.\u00a0 Then a specific musical scale will be used to assess your voice and determine your vocal type.\u00a0 From there we will go through a series of different vocal exercises to find out which ones yield the best results for your specific voice.\u00a0 If there is a song you wish to work on right away, Laurel would be happy to work on it with you however depending on how far along you are in your singing, it is advisable to practice the vocalizations and allow your voice to develop further before applying the technique to a song.\u00a0 Essentially we wish to eliminate any poor vocal habits first.\u00a0 This could take anywhere from a couple of weeks to a couple of months depending on your voice\u2019s current condition, natural ability, and commitment level.\u00a0 Most students notice an improvement during their first lesson.<\/p>                        <\/div>\n\n                    <\/div>\n\n                <\/div><!-- .elementskit-card END -->\n\n

For instance, if you take guitar or piano lessons, the only way to grow your skills is to practice consistently in between your lesson days. I recommend scheduling your practice time at the beginning of each week for a minimum of 20-30 minutes every other day. Or if it's easier for you to practice in shorter increments daily, that is fine too. It's all about creating a consistent habit of singing as often as you can so you can become a master of your own voice. To practice, simply play the pre-recorded voice scales that I send you customized to your voice and follow the practice exercises I give you in a follow up email after each lesson. The more consistent you are with your practice, the faster your voice will grow!<\/p>                        <\/div>\n\n                    <\/div>\n\n                <\/div><!-- .elementskit-card END

    <p>YES!\u00a0 It is best to start preparing for the audition as far in advance as possible so you feel comfortable with the material.\u00a0 We recommend bringing your background music to the studio.\u00a0 If there will be an accompanist at the audition, we recommend having a pianist record the audition selection and can offer a few suggestions of people who do this at a reasonable price.\u00a0 Also as a performer and former casting director, Laurel will be able to assist you with bringing out the emotions of the piece in an authentic manner and finding specific moments which will make you stand out from the crowd.<\/p>                        <\/div>\n\n                    <\/div>\n\n                <\/div><!-- .elementskit-card END -->\n\n                \n
