Beginners, advanced singers to professional singers,
and aspiring songwriters.
Mrs. G not only brings her technical vocal training to the equation, but she also offers
her vast 28 years of experience as a professional vocalist, pianist, recording artist,
TV talk/variety show host, and successful on-camera commercial actor, and jingle singer - which
makes her one of the most sought after and effective "Riffing", R&B, Pop, Jazz & Gospel vocal coaches
in New York City. She teaches her students from her experience necessary performance skills, and the necessary business approach required to build a successful, happy, and financially rewarding singing
career. She shares info on how to keep themselves and their voices healthy - diet, workout, REST,
and moving towards their dream career. "She breaks things down in order for her students focus on
1 Skill Set at a time... working on it for 6-days a week, over a period of months, in order to
"master" that particular skill set. She insists that consistent, daily practice is key.
She trained at The Ohio State University as well as private lessons at CCM.
She reminds them that they'll appreciate the benefits of their labor when they hear how "fabulous"
they sound in front of audiences... hard work, sweat & tears = success!
In 2015 her 6-hr. vocal workshops students continue to work together on vocal-strengthening exercises,
“Riffing-flexibility” exercises, harmony exercises, "and finally, they perform the last hour to get a
true sense of what it's like to sing with total control over your voice! They get the true thrill of what it's
like to perform without fearing the resistance of the voice - which frees them up to express
their song and sing from their hearts.
They love performing there in the warmth of the workshops where the atmosphere is very supportive,
there's a high, collective "energy", and total support and freedom of expression where her students CAN
grow.
It also makes them work harder to be prepared to present their "best" stuff before their peers.

Student testimonials and new releases -
Kelly Ryu, from Seoul Korea
Gwen worked with me, teaching me to "Riff" for a year.
I came to her from Seoul, Korea for the specific purpose of learning how to sing R&B music, and how to "Riff" with ease. I can now "Riff" with ease and I LOVE IT!!!
When I returned to Seoul, I performed, and also built my own Vocal training business. Below is one of my students who returned with me to meet Mrs. G after
hearing me brag about her so often. I love her!!!
—Alison Foster, Professional Cabaret and Background Singer, NJ, USA
"They're so many things I've learned from Gwen which are "priceless, and had a glorious time growing in areas where I needed a lot of development. I've developed confidence and courage to perform anywhere! She elevated my technical skills and helped me to build the guts, and passion to re-dedicate myself."
