Knoxville Voice Lessons

My name is Alexandra, and I believe singing shouldn't hurt. Read my teaching philosophy...

The physical, mental, and emotional processes of singing are multi-faceted: I'm here to help you find what works for you. Read about lesson features...

I work collaboratively as a diagnostician: helping you figure out what's up with your voice -- and as a technician: giving you the tools to get your voice what it needs. Read my biography...

PHILOSOPHY

I believe singing shouldn't hurt.

​

Singing shouldn't hurt...

This seems like it should be a given, right?

But I have singers in my studio every day who are struggling with tension, pressure, vocal fatigue, and an all-around sense that they should be able to reach that note/sing that phrase/nail that run and somehow, it's just not happening.

​

You've been getting by despite that discomfort, but you know there's got to be a better way.

​

I get it.

​

I've been there.

​

And when I realized that I was going to keep running up against those same difficulties in my own singing unless I took radical action, that's what I did -- I tightened up my finances (and racked up the frequent flier miles) seeking out the best teachers I could find.

​

These master teachers, scientists, and doctors of voice supplemented the knowledge I had already gained achieving my master's and bachelor's degrees in voice performance. I built up my toolkit, my diagnostic ear, and my performing experience -- and continue to do so, bringing it home for my studio!

​

See if this sounds familiar... 

When I first started teaching, I discovered I wasn't the only singer who sometimes felt like #thestruggleisreal. I started working with:

- music theater performers who needed to thrive in six shows a week

- working opera singers who were ready to hit the high notes and get paid

- a pop-rock singer whose range was decimated by years of vocal misuse and sheer exhaustion, who was ready to rebuild

- an aspiring singer-songwriter whose choir director told her, simply, that she couldn't and shouldn't sing -- but wanted to keep her songs alive

Plus high-achieving high schoolers, pageant competitors, church cantors, and choir directors who wants to give more to their audiences and congregations.

​

What makes the difference...

What I learned working with these singers -- some "beginners," some working professionals -- is that when YOU the singer have the drive, the work ethic, and the proper guide?

​

Transformation is possible. Singing gets easy. Singing doesn't hurt.

​

If you've got everything else you need but you haven't yet found the right vocal guide, let's find a time to talk.
