I was first told about Shannah and her singing program through friends in the industry. I went to a weekly class just to see what the class was about. I was hooked right away. I learned more in that 2 hour class than I had in the previous year with my other voice teacher. She has helped me so much in such a short period of time!

"I recently had the pleasure of teaching a voice workshop with Shannah at her performing arts studio. She takes immense effort to bring top-level training to her students, both through her excellent teaching and bringing back guest artists. The result is immediately apparent in her students professionalism. As a teaching artist, she is incredibly driven to expand her knowledge and has studied with the best - including some of my own mentors. I have seen first hand how lucky her students are to have her as a teacher and have no doubt that any singer anywhere would be equally lucky to work with Shannah".

"I’ve watched as Shannah disarms fear and unconscious resistance to that which is unfamiliar. In seconds she quickly discerns the vocal tools that work for the individual student.
Within minutes rapport builds and the student confidently relaxes into a vocal collaboration that delivers immediate and lasting benefit. Shannah’s accomplished, confident command of techniques coupled with her down home, authentic, inviting approach instill trust. The results are outstanding." -Kimberly Vaughn, Broadway Performance Coach Kimberly Vaughn Performance Studio |

"I marvel at how Shannah creates an environment for students that somehow shortcircuits any semblance of a 'fear of failure.' They go for it! She's like the best combination of a sports coach and a Zen master."

" . . . she really does know her stuff!! We worked on techniques to help with range, different breathing techniques, finding out what body parts I really need to loosen up prior to singing that affect my vocals. It all makes SUCH a difference!!! Learned many things, and they Worked!!! If you are looking for vocal coach or need to go back to the basics or want to work on your voice check her out!!"

"I recently started studying with Shannah and I already feel like I know my voice better now than I ever have. The solid technique she teaches allows you the skill and stamina to compete at the New York level. Some of her exercises involve loosening up your body to free up your voice, range expansion, and the importance of vocal placement; I’ve never felt so in control of my voice. Shannah is the kind of teacher you dream of having. The knowledge she encompasses about vocals and her inspiring passion make you want to learn. I’m extremely grateful to have her in my life."

"When I was looking for a voice instructor, I was looking for someone who truly cared about me and my growth as a performer. Shannah has been that for me and more! She challenges me and supports me in every lesson. Her techniques are healthy, safe, and incredibly helpful. Shannah goes above and beyond helping me achieve goals I set for myself from the very beginning. I feel comfortable trying new things in lessons and I know I am becoming a stronger performer every week!"
