Private Lesson Rates
$75-100 / 55 min, sliding scale for lessons at my home studio
$90-120 / 55 min, sliding scale for lessons in your home
COVID-19 Edit: Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic I am only teaching virtual lessons (via Zoom) at this time. As the pandemic continues to cause financial strain for many, I have widened my sliding scale from $70-$120 / 55 min. and ask that you pay what you can. If this rate does not feel feasible, please reach out so that we can figure out a way to support your financial situation and your creative voice.

Student Quotes
"As someone who has sung all my life, but never had lessons, I've been thrilled to work with such a talented and terrific voice teacher. Danielle brings enormous expertise based on her impressive music education, as well as from her years of training her own voice and performing. She is a gifted teacher who builds my confidence. I've been singing lead in a band and several people have told me they can tell the difference in my singing since I've been taking lessons from Danielle. I can't recommend her highly enough." -Wendy J.

In just the few lessons I have had so far Danielle has really helped me understand and focus in on my strengths and offered concrete approaches to address where I am weaker.

Also, I appreciate her knowledge of jazz repertoire." -Sam I.
