Voice Lessons in NYC at our Manhattan Studio

Vetted, Experienced, Professional Teachers in Our Manhattan Studio

Voice Lessons at Our NYC Studio

Our NYC studio is conveniently located near the corner of West 65th Street and Columbus Avenue, just steps from Lincoln Center. It’s a popular location for both voice and piano students, and it’s easily accessible by the 1 train (66th St / Lincoln Center), or by walking up Broadway from Midtown. Our space is quiet, well-equipped, and perfect for students who enjoy a focused, professional learning environment.

In-Home and Online Instruction

If your schedule makes it difficult to travel to us each week, we’re happy to bring the lesson to you. Our instructors travel to student homes all over Manhattan, and often to select neighborhoods in Brooklyn and Queens. Many families love the flexibility of in-home lessons, especially when working around school pick-ups, work-from-home schedules, or limited availability in the evenings.

We also teach voice lessons online, using high-quality video conferencing platforms. This is a great option for adults who travel for work or for students who feel more comfortable singing from home.

Classical Approach, Timeless Skill

Our voice instruction begins with a classical foundation. That means healthy vocal technique, strong breath support, natural projection, and a deep connection to musical phrasing. Whether a student is interested in singing Mozart, Broadway, or Taylor Swift, we start by teaching the body how to sing efficiently and expressively.

Classical technique allows students to widen their vocal range, sing longer phrases with ease, and protect their voice over time. Once a student has internalized the fundamentals—alignment, resonance, vowel shape, and dynamic control—they can apply them to any genre they love. Students also learn to read music, understand phrasing, identify intervals by ear, and eventually sight-sing with fluency. We introduce solfège, basic keyboard skills (when helpful), and the basics of music theory that support intelligent musicianship.

Voice Lessons for Kids

We begin working with young singers around ages 6 or 7, once they are able to match pitch and focus through a 30-minute lesson. At this stage, we focus on breathing, posture, pitch accuracy, and storytelling through song. Many younger students begin with a mix of folk songs, classic musical theater, and accessible classical repertoire.

We keep lessons upbeat and age-appropriate, using games and movement exercises to make concepts like phrasing and articulation come alive. Young singers also benefit from learning how to listen critically and express themselves with confidence.

As students grow into their voices, we begin introducing more technical concepts like dynamic contrast, range extension, and clear diction. We also help with preparation for school performances, youth theater auditions, and music exams.

Voice Lessons for Teens and Adults

Pre-College Vocal Instruction

Teen singers often come to us with specific goals in mind. Some want to audition for their high school musical or regional theater production. Others are looking to build classical repertoire for college auditions. Still others simply want to sing with more ease and develop their personal style.

We work one-on-one to build a vocal program that meets each teen where they are. This might include art songs by Schubert, arias from student-friendly operas, or musical theater favorites from composers like Sondheim or Pasek and Paul. We discuss text interpretation, emotional delivery, vowel shaping, and vocal health.

We also introduce teens to ear training and sight singing so they can approach new music with more independence and skill. Learning to recognize intervals, hold harmonies, and follow a conductor is a big part of becoming a capable vocalist, especially in ensemble or performance settings.

Voice Lessons For Adults

Many adults take voice lessons for personal enjoyment. Some have years of experience, while others are total beginners. Regardless of your background, we will tailor your lessons to your interests and goals. If you’re looking to sing in a church choir, perform at an open mic, audition for a show, or just sing for fun, we can help you find the right material and build your voice week by week. We will explore breath control, tone placement, vocal flexibility, and expression, always at a pace that works for you.

Adults often appreciate a balance between technical work and repertoire study. Lessons may include warm-ups and exercises, then transition into songs chosen based on vocal range, style, and challenge level. We work with classical repertoire, jazz standards, folk songs, opera arias, musical theater ballads, and popular music alike.

Musical Theater and Speaking Skills

Music Theater Singing Lessons

Musical theater singers face unique vocal demands. We train musical theater students in a way that supports a healthy belt, dynamic head voice, and seamless mixing technique. We also help with audition prep, including selecting appropriate cuts, working on diction, and polishing stage presence. Many of our students prepare for school shows, conservatory auditions, or summer intensives. Because musical theater often involves singing in character, we focus on storytelling and emotional connection in every piece. You’ll learn how to bring the lyrics to life, shape each phrase with intention, and perform with confidence.

Speak More Confidently

Voice lessons teach much more than how to carry a tune. Students develop clearer speech, stronger breath support, better posture, and more control over their presence in the room. For shy children, lessons can improve communication and self-confidence. For adults, voice training often leads to stronger speaking habits, which can be helpful for presentations, interviews, or daily communication. Whether your goal is to perform at Lincoln Center, sing at a wedding, or simply enjoy music with greater confidence, learning to use your voice in a healthy, expressive way can change how you relate to the world.
