VOICE LESSONS

As a singer, there is no doubt, you want to be good and continue to get better. You want to understand and apply proper vocal technique. You want to properly use and expand your vocal range. You want to choose the right songs for your voice. You may be interested in leading roles in Musical Theater. You may even be considering making a career as a vocalist and pursing your dream in a university setting. 

Let's be honest, you hear someone else sing and question if you're good enough. You struggle to consistently use  breath properly and when all else fails, you resort to imitation - imitating your "favorite" singer or the voice on the recording. 

YOU WANT TO SOUND BETTER.

YOU WANT TO CONNECT
WITH AN AUDIENCE.

We understand the constant struggles singers face with comparing themselves to others, self-doubt, and selecting the right music for their voice. Making matters worse, our ears and brains complicate the process. Our brain stores a recording of what our voice "usually" sounds like. When it doesn't hear what it is expecting or what it thinks "sounds good,"  it instantly judges the sound, technique goes out the window, and the cycle of comparison and self-doubt starts all over again.

We can help you sound better. We can help you find music that best suits your voice and your goals. Our ultimate desire is to help you know what to do, and do it consistently.

If there was a "magic key" to producing your best voice, most of the best singers in the world wouldn't need a coach. You are not alone in your struggle.

LET'S FIND TIME TO WORK TOGETHER

When we meet for the first time, we want to know some things about you:

• We want to know about your experience. Your greatest thrills. The moments that helped you realize singing isn't something you need to do, you can't live without it.
• Tell us what you like about your voice and what you want to improve.
• We want to know your goals. What do you want to accomplish as a singer?

You shouldn't always be a "towns' person" in your favorite musical. Don't avoid that audition or try-out because you think, "I'm just not good enough." Don't regret missing the opportunity to pursue your dreams in a university setting.

• We want you to learn the techniques of singing "beautifully."
• Expand your range, find the emotional character of your music, build confidence, pursue your goals, and sound better than you ever dreamed possible.

It's time to move from self-doubting to a confident, technically trained singer who can bring an audience to their feet.

"Voice lessons with Mr. Gross have been life changing he has not only gotten me to use my voice in a healthy way, but also been a mentor who has helped me navigate my life through all my difficult decisions. His lessons and guidance has lead to my acceptance to the top acting and musical theater colleges in the country. His lessons have set me up for a future career in the performing arts." - A.K.

“We had been looking for a vocal coach for my daughter for many weeks and we were unable to find anyone that my daughter was comfortable with. I had contacted BeckRidge after finding them on line and had a conversation with Michael Gross about the vocal lessons and what we were looking for. Initially, my daughter was reserved and insecure. After a few weeks of vocal lessons, I began to see her become more confident. He continues to teach her new techniques and makes her push herself and her abilities and is always encouraging. After 4 years, she continues to look forward to going to lessons every week and learns something new at every lesson. BeckRidge has become more like a second home than just a place for my daughter to learn and grow vocally”.  - J.R. 

"My daughter has been taking voice lessons from Michael Gross for about 3 years.  Mike has been patient and professional from the first lesson to current. He is able to hone in on the specific areas your child needs to work on in order to bring true potential to their voice. I think if you love singing, and want to improve, Mr. Michael Gross is who you want."  - C.R.

"Our working relationship has grown through my years of doing vocal lessons and I feel like vocal lessons have helped me immensely with achieving the goals that I have set for myself throughout the years. The working environment is comfortable and informative as I am constantly learning about my voice and what I am able to do with it." - N.G.
