What to Expect Beginners: You'll learn how to sing on pitch and how to project your voice. As your sound quality improves so will your confidence. Expect singing shyness to diminish and enjoyment to increase. Intermediate: You'll create a better, more pleasing sound and tone. Your confidence will increase and so will your enjoyment.

WHAT TO BRING

Notes
Bring a journal or notebook to record the results of your sessions. You will receive homework and suggestions on what to focus on. You are welcome to bring a tape recorder and blank cassette or other recording device so you can replay your lesson back at home.

Scheduling

Appointment times vary from 45 – 60 minutes and can be scheduled weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly to suit your objectives, availability, and budget. Sessions are available noon to 7pm, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays year round (with short breaks at Christmas, Easter, and summer).

Fees

Fees are based on the number of sessions you commit to. Please call for more information about current rates and packages, 403-229-9321. Completing a commitment to yourself can be challenging in many ways: life happens, being busy, feeling scared or frustrated. The urge to quit can sometimes seem overwhelming. You can count on me to support you in completing your initial commitment to yourself, to help you move through the fears (and subconscious delay tactics) that arise so you can achieve the results you desire. For this reason it is my policy that, once committed to a term of lessons, fees are NON-REFUNDABLE. Please give this careful consideration before hiring me. I am here to help you fulfill your musical dreams.
