Hear what Kelly's Student Are Saying!

Professional Singer / Performer Disney (Universal) Read More
Kelly has taught students with a wide variety of backgrounds and skills, all the way from beginners to accomplished performers from musical theater, opera and even rock bands. Her knowledge of all these musical genres and her patience in developing newcomers and polishing professionals all speak to her approach to informing healthy singing techniques. The one outstanding trait Kelly has is her passion, as well as her compassion, for teaching. After her instruction, I always felt challenged and motivated, not defeated. Her patience and gentle approach allow her students to be comfortable, yet vulnerable, both of which are extremely important in a voice lesson.

Gold and Platinum Record Performing Producer and Vocal Coach Read More
Kelly’s professionalism and expertise is unparalleled in the arena of vocal instruction. She quickly decoded the cause of a vocal challenge I had been struggling with for some time and provided a viable solution within 20 minutes of entering her home studio. Knowledgeable, Musical, Patient, Kind, Skilled and incredibly effective are only a few of the attributes Kelly possesses as an instructor of voice. Whenever I’m in need for a quick vocal tune-up, Kelly is among the very few at the top of my list to check in with.

NATS National Finalist Music Theatre, SFBAC Finalist / Performer Read More
Kelly is extremely knowledgeable and trustworthy. She has helped me grow in leaps and bounds since I have started with her. I feel so much more confident in my abilities and I am able to do so much more than I could before! She has shared so much knowledge with me that will help me vocally for the rest of my career. Kelly is also very kind, helpful, and committed to her students. She creates a safe space where I feel comfortable to try new things out and work through problem areas in my voice. I would not be the vocalist I am today without Kelly's help.

Recording Artists, Professional Singer, and Director / Vocal Coach Read More
Kelly's teaching is inspirational, educational, and energetic. Having decades under my own belt as a performer and teacher, I have worked one-on-one with Kelly as well as in workshop settings with her and I can honestly say I get something valuable from our work together every single time. Kelly has the education, tools, and heart to bring students to the next level they want to achieve and I recommend her wholeheartedly.

Estill is a perfect way to JUMPSTART your vocal technique and understanding to the next level! It’s like getting a “Turbo” button for your voice!
- Water
- Good space to make some noise!
- It’s helpful to have a list of songs on hand that you KNOW, that you can sing portions of to try new techniques. We all have a tendency to blank out on songs when we are asked to sing one (even if we know and perform thousands of them!). The list can really help you through classes.
- If your voice is healthy, I recommend 12 minutes of vocal exercises each day to target and strengthen the positions that we use. That should be followed by singing your OWN music and implementing the techniques in that position.
- The length of time will vary after those 12 minutes depending on how much music you’re performing, and your own personal goals.
Simply put, YES. 5-6 days a week with a day or two of rest is optimal. If you’ve had an intense gig or performance, follow that day with a day of rest. Then get back to the routine. This is a PHYSICAL instrument. So treat your practice like you would train for an athletic event. If you’re a runner, It’s not enough to know HOW to run, you actually need to run and build endurance. The same thing applies with your voice.
- Tickle
- Scratch
- Cough
- Sudden loss of range
These are the early symptoms of vocal trauma or excessive fatigue. (usually excessive fatigue is brought on by improper positioning unless you’re on the road or in the studio and performing for 8 hours a day)
If You are experiencing fatigue or illness, REST! HYDRATE! Then come back to reposition your voice and ease into practicing 24-48 hours later.
If you have the following, consider rest:
- Fever
- Inability to speak (laryngitis)
- Inability to siren through your range, or missing portions of your range after trying to siren and warm up
- Extreme pain
- A feeling of “sting” or “scratch” on the vocal folds
When can I “push it” a little?
Any type of illness will place your voice in a compromised state. So if you NEED to sing or gig when you’re a bit “under” the weather (which happens when we’re professionals) Do the following
- Warm up more slowly and a bit longer
- Hydrate more than usual (minimum is half of your body weight in oz per day: 75 oz for a 150 pound human)
- Stay with tried and true positions and don’t attempt to expand your range, repertoire or stamina in this state
- Consider nasal rinses (neti pot or neil med rinse)
- Consider using a vocal steamer (I love vicks hand held steamer) to deliver moisture to the vocal folds and soothe inflammation)
- Be extra mindful about using proper technique
The recorded exercises go higher than most people will want to sing (on purpose) when it feels like it’s going TOO high for you, drop the octave and continue on with the exercise. Don’t push yourself to go higher than you are physically able to do so with correct technique and positioning. The position is more important than the pitch.
This program is set up on a subscription basis, kind of like your gym membership. You have the opportunity to utilize as much or as little as you need! There are months where we have MORE guest instructors, professionals, and presentations, and months where there is a little bit less. The consistency of a subscription allows us to vary the style and content and keep the rate the same year round.
Summer is a time where many singers make tremendous strides and progress! However, this is also a time where we travel, I get more training and do international voice presentations, and many of you hit the road or the stage for shows.
During the summer, we stop group information classes, and private lessons and switch to a model of Master classes or Open Coaching.
What is a master class?
In a master class, you join a small group of people and perform a problematc song for you and receive coaching on it. You have the opportunity to watch other people receive coaching as well. This is an invaluable time to grow, because we all experience the same vocal challenges at different times. If you learn from someone else, you may just avoid that issue in the future. Zoom allows the opportunity to sing along with the person getting coached and maximize your own learning. Summer master classes also provide the opportunity to work with guest clinicians and performers! I’ll bring in some of my FAVORITE people for you to experience!
A “Lab” is a place to experiment and explore. Every class Lab will have a topic of discussion and then a time to experiment and explore that topic with your own voice.
Vocal science is a combination of anatomy, isolations and the exact muscles and positions we use to create the sounds you desire.
