I have worked with Courtney a few years ago. I am a seasoned trained vocalist that grew up singing gospel, choir, and classical music, I transitioned to jazz in my more ...., uhmm ....mature years. I was wondering if Courtney could help me loosen the control of my singing style into a more easy, swing, jazz, and freeing style. Not only did she help me but made me feel comfortable in my own trial and error and letting my voice and mind relax to find a new style and feel comfortable with that process.
I thoroughly enjoyed working with her and urge anyone that wants to improve and/or expand your style no matter where you’re at to give it a go!!!

NazlahNew York, NYCourtney is a great voice teacher! As a theatre artist who has always shied away from singing, she has not only given me to the tools to rock a musical theatre audition, but also the confidence. She truly listens to your needs no matter your skill set or preferred genre of song. I have grown exponentially since I started learning from her.

Read MoreAlexander FriendI worked with Courtney for almost a year in NYC before she moved on to bigger and better things. As a beginner, she was incredibly patient and encouraging. I came into it with a slight interest in singing and left with not only a better command and confidence in my voice, but also a greater appreciation for music and theory. I still stay in touch with Courtney and, with her nudging me along, continue to sing and challenge myself. Truly powerful how singing can help lift you up in life.

JanineSeattle, WAMy daughter has been taking singing lessons with Courtney both in-person and on Skype for the past 5 years. I was unsure if a remote set-up would be effective for music lessons, but it is absolutely just as effective as in-person lessons. Courtney is patient, nurturing and really knows how to listen and build both adult and teen students’ confidence. Her creativity really shines through in her teaching method/style as she finds the just right balance for each student. My daughter has thrived under Courtney’s teaching!

Those sounds that emanate from our throats that allow us to communicate and express our thoughts and emotions. But we have many voices....some which we never use or barely use. That list includes our written voice, singing voice, romantic voice, business voice, relationship voice, parental voice, community voice, spiritual voice......the list is never ending.
