Singing Begins
with Choice™
Singing Begins with Choice™ is an anatomy and movement-informed approach to singing. Singers develop a clearer understanding and awareness of their voices and bodies, expanding the choices available to them as they create the sound they want and communicate what they intend through singing.
Your voice is not a problem to solve.
It is an instrument to understand, explore, and choose.

The Process
The Learning Framework
Awareness
Stay curious and self-aware.
Notice your body, sensations, habits, thoughts, and sound throughout the process of singing and learning.
Accurate Information
& Exploration
Learn, experience, and discover what is possible.
Explore accurate anatomical information through movement, experimentation, and singing to better understand your instrument.
Informed Choice
Choose what serves your voice and your music.
Use what you notice, learn, and experience to make informed choices about the sound you create and what you want to communicate through singing.
Three Areas We Explore
We apply the framework across three interconnected areas of singing: breath, tone, and expression.
The Breath You Choose: Workshop
Explore how your breathing system works, what breath support involves, and the choices available to you when breathing for singing.
The Tone You Choose
Explore vocal resonance and how different choices can influence the tone qualities you create.
The Expressive Voice You Choose
Explore the many choices that shape how you communicate meaning, emotion, and story through singing.
Fall Classes Are Open
Two classes available this fall — a six-week small group class and a three-week exploration of breath. Both held live online via Zoom.
