AVS helps you develop a well-rounded skill set that includes theory, ear training, sight-reading, and composition, enabling you to communicate more expressively and creatively through your music.

Play-Based Learning at its Best.

We Focus On The Functional, Practical Theory. Because When It Comes To Music, Why Wouldn’t You Want Play-Based Learning.

Warm Up

A healthy voice typically takes no more than five to ten minutes maximum to warm up. With that said, it is a crucial part of the lesson, so that we can avoid vocal fatigue and injury.

Vocal Technique

No two students are the same and no two exercises are the same. Receive tailored made exercises to best help you improve as a singer. Timing varies, but typically students spend about twenty to thirty minutes on exercises.

Repertoire and Projects

For the remainder of the lesson, we apply what we’ve worked on in the first half. Students may elect to work on repertoire, production, music theory, or songwriting etc. Although it ranges, students usually spend about twenty to twenty-five minutes on their creative works.

What can I expect in a lesson?

Tailored lessons blend warm-ups and technique to expand your range and style. Sing with confidence in any genre, mastering healthy techniques for ease and presence.

Warm Up

At the start of lessons, you can expect support in what has been challenging and go over moments of growth during previous practice time. From there, students are offered five to ten minutes of focused warm ups in specific rhythm or ear training that will be applicable to their project work.

Concept Work

After warm ups, we will spend the first half of the lesson diving deeper into a musical concept. These concepts can include sight reading, chart writing or composition.

Creative Projects

Finally, we will apply the concepts you worked on during the beginning half of the lesson. With the emphasis on singing, students bring concepts full circle with their newly written arrangements and compositions

I have been taking private voice/singing lessons with Arabella for two months, hoping to “find my voice” late in life. Arabella has combined technical lessons and reading material regarding vocal anatomy together with vocal exercises and singing with emphasis on emotional expression and story-telling. Her lessons have followed a logical and effective progression from week to week, and she illustrates her points very effectively in drawings and summaries. She is an excellent communicator, with just the right balance of critiques, challenges, and support for my efforts. I have clearly made progress under her guidance, and the whole experience has been very enjoyable!
