Blackwood tailors each lesson to match what I want to learn, and she keeps it engaging whether we're working on technique or a favorite tune.

Blackwood helped me strengthen my voice and overcome nerves through focused breathing and stage presence training. Thanks to her, I performed for the first time in Paar estates with confidence and joy!

As a teenager struggling with stage fear I was doubtful that voice lessons could make a difference. However Blackwood emphasis on breathing exercises and mental visualization truly helped me break through my fears. I recently sang Rise Up for my class and felt an overwhelming sense of pride.
