I've been a student of Denise’s for the past 10 months and have loved every minute of it! Not only does she have a voice you could listen to all day and night, but she also brings a level of experience and passion that’s truly inspiring. Having started singing at an early age and with many years of coaching behind her, Denise’s professionalism and expertise really shine through. She has an incredible ability to recognize and nurture the unique talents in each of her students. I highly recommend her to anyone — whether you’re just beginning your vocal journey or looking to refine and elevate your skills. More...

Denise helped me sing with better tone, not lose my voice, and basically fine-tune my delivery. Game Changer! Even if you've been singing for a while, she can help fix the things you didn't know needed fixing ;)

I first started working with Denise a few years ago. I had completely stopped singing for quite some time, and was seeking support in finding my voice and confidence again. Denise did just that and more! I’ve enjoyed every lesson. Thank you for being such a wonderful coach 🩷 More...

Deneece is passionate about singing and teaching. A trained vocalist herself, Deneece has a vocal coaching program that focuses on good techniques and exercises that generate positive results. I'm the lead vocalist in a local rock band and Deneece has helped me to better enunciate and shape my vocal sounds. Deneece has a great sense of humour and is a pleasure to work with. I have recommended Deneece to some of my friends and they enjoy her coaching as well. More...

I really appreciate that she takes the time to send reminders a day before each session, and then also a follow up email after each lesson.

Denise is such an upbeat person in general, so working with her or having even a simple conversation with her is always positives and we laugh a lot!
She doesn’t judge and she doesn’t get frustrated if you don’t catch on as quickly as others. I’d definitely recommend working with Denise, she’s a great person and awesome coach!

As a vocal coach, Denise always gave me excellent feedback. She was very helpful for giving me tips and techniques that improved many aspects of my singing and performance.
Through the lessons, she managed to change some bad habits and create good ones to facilitate attaining the right notes. My motivation was maintained by her enthousiasm and encouragement.

Denise is an awesome vocal coach/teacher. Her methods of teaching are outstanding, she descriptive, patient, uses vocal exercises that are very effective. But most importantly, she makes it fun! Her high energy, and Kean ear for notes, vowel sounds, pitch, is instant to helping you stay on track with your vocal. Her ability to train you to exercise and breath to make it easy on your voice is a great tool for any singer who is looking for longevity with their vocal. Thanks for your help so far Denise, can't wait to continue my lessons in the new year. More...
