Testimonials
“Vanessa is a phenomenal singer and voice teacher. She is able to asses with expert precision exactly what is going on with your voice and how to reach your goals. It’s similar to a personal training session in that she shows you the proper way to engage with your anatomy and recognize the connections between physical technique and sound.
Exploring uncharted territory with your voice can be uncomfortable and embarrassing. You have to be willing to sound ridiculous and awful, and Vanessa’s vibe is exactly what I needed to have fun with that and belly-laugh my way through. Can’t recommend her highly enough. I always thought I couldn’t sing tenor or get over my vocal break, and feel I have been introduced to parts of my voice I didn’t know existed!”

“I started taking lessons with Vanessa last year in preparation for the recording of my solo songwriting project. She truly gets it , and more importantly, she gets ME! She's so supportive and patient. She understands how the voice is connected to our emotional selves. It's unlike any instrument in that way and she has helped me feel that at my core. I've learned so much already. We've made it this far thru the good, bad and yes, the ugly parts of it! It's hard to give up control and let yourself sing! But she has done that for me thru her skill and expert guidance. I am so grateful for her. I look forward to continuing to learn from her for years to come.”

“Vanessa has elevated my singing to levels I could have never imagined! I have been working with her for almost 2 years now. Her style of vocal coaching has taught me how to sing high and low notes in key effortlessly and naturally. As a busy mom, doing the lessons online enables me to fit them at a time that is convenient for my schedule. Vanessa is highly knowledgeable, a pleasure to work with, and I highly recommend her!”

“Seriously, I have never met a more thorough and educating vocal coach. She explains the reasoning and physics behind every lesson and technique! I was shocked that after only one lesson I was able to unlock a part of my voice I never realized was there! I got a package of 10 lessons and honestly can say I should’ve bought more(and I plan to) Haha. I definitely will be a forever customer! I highly recommend Vanessa Schilling’s lessons / courses for all ages.”
