Work with a Berklee-trained coach offering vocal training that adapts to your talents and goals

Nicole recently worked with Arianna on vocal exercises, focusing on applying belting techniques to the songs "In Pieces" and "Grenade." During the lesson, Arianna received instruction on projection, musicality, and how to hit high notes without strain, and they also reviewed a video explaining belting techniques. For her next lesson, Arianna will prepare "Someone Like You" by Adele, concentrating on belting and mixed voice techniques.

Nicole coached Lexa on enhancing her song performance, specifically targeting high notes, smooth transitions between vocal registers, and overall tone quality. Lexa dedicated time to practicing particular sections of the song, receiving feedback on her pitch and vocal tension. Nicole provided Lexa with exercises and techniques to boost her comfort and control when singing high notes, with further work planned for their next lesson.

Nicole coached a learner from Avalon on vocal techniques for two songs, "From This Moment" and "Falling." The student focused on improving high notes and jaw placement in "From This Moment," utilizing mixed voice exercises. For homework, they will practice singing in front of a mirror to enhance jaw movement and continue developing projection and emotional expression in "Falling."

Nicole and Arianna engaged in a vocal lesson, dedicating their time to mixed voice and belting techniques through various exercises. During this lesson, Arianna specifically honed her performance of Linkin Park's 'In Pieces,' with a focus on emotional projection, and tackled Bruno Mars' 'Grenade,' concentrating on belting. For her practice outside of class, Nicole tasked Arianna with continuing to emote and project in 'In Pieces' and to further develop her belting in 'Grenade.' Nicole also indicated that she would introduce additional belting exercises in their upcoming lesson.

Nicole and Lexa dedicated their time to refining vocal techniques, including warm-up exercises, mixed voice, and diaphragmatic breathing. They applied these skills to the song "Dreams," concentrating on pitch, melody, and vocal transitions. Lexa will practice the sections they worked on, experimenting with belting versus head voice, and they will continue their work on the song in the upcoming singing lesson.

Nicole worked with a Miami-based learner on vocal technique and breath control, focusing on the songs "Falling" and "From This Moment On." They addressed issues with high notes and maintaining the correct key, breaking down the latter song into sections for targeted practice. The learner is to practice "From This Moment On" during the week, focusing on listening to the song to internalize the melody and build confidence.
