Celebrating Summer!

I always say summer is a great time for singing!! Located in the Ranches of Eagle Mountain, I am accepting students for the summer!  I am also offering group lessons for 2+ people at the price of $10 a person for a 45-50 minute lesson. About Walstad Voice Studio: I am a classically trained vocal teacher based in the Ranches of Eagle Mountain, Utah. I graduated with a degree in Vocal Performance from BYU in 2010. My training there emphasized the pedagogy of teaching voice as well as my own skill development. Since then I have worked at a local music academy teaching private lessons, as well as maintaining a small home studio. As a teacher I believe it is important to build a great foundation for singing at a young age. I emphasize flow phonation, even-scale, resonance, and proper breathing techniques with even my youngest students. Whether you want to sing Opera, Musical Theater, Jazz or Pop. My well-rounded approach is also appropriate for people who are excited to learn ho
