I'm excited to steer you on an adventure to find your inner compass.
As a singing teacher who can train you in this ancient art,
and reveal your own guiding light,
I can help you find your way in the wild.
Music can lead you to seek your unique highest self,
skillfully empowering your voice and life
through waves of emotion & sound,
seeking buried treasures -
on a new shore that you can call your own.
Taking singing lessons can be part of that journey.
. . . really "found yourself?" Where the music lifted you up, connected you with the people around you, built a bridge between you and the singers onstage? Swept up by the music, you whispered to yourself, "This is where I belong."
What would you sing? What story would you tell? How would your life change if you sang out for what you really want? Singing words you've always longed to sing. A little nervous, but feeling so alive, with your voice soaring . . . .
"Fantastic! Barbara melds classic training methods with a more 'holistic' style. I walk out of each lesson very happy and more confident in my abilities than the week prior."
"It was not until I began writing my solo music that I realized what an influence Barbara had been on the way I think about songwriting and lyrics. I'm so grateful for this."

• Meghan - "You're also a Jersey City firefighter! . . . Are there any similarities between the rush you get running into a burning building and the rush you get performing on stage?"
• Nick - "Of course! Obviously, they have their major differences as well. Being on stage doesn't usually have the 'I might die doing this' factor, but it is certainly a major rush, and it is a very big reason why I continue to perform. I kind of get to disappear up on stage. Even though I may be in front of a ton of people, it's truly an escaped moment. They are both big adrenaline inducing lines of work, and I am a junkie for that stuff.
"It's also very similar in the aspects of family, brotherhood, and teamwork. On the fire truck, there are four of us working as a unit to keep each other and those we serve as safe as possible. The same goes on stage: as we form this sound, this show, and these feelings as one. A lot of it comes down to unspoken communication which is a great thing to experience."
"Rock N Roll is our Medicine and
