What is this group class?

The Voice Discovery Lab is a deep dive into your voice and your self. 

We’ll explore many of the exercises in Sing a Secret (my recurring free introductory workshop) but take more time with them — more thoroughly uncovering possibilities of your voice and of your self. And through new, invigorating exercises, you’ll discover deep pockets of your voice that you didn’t know were possible. All in a supportive, intimate group setting. 

It’s six evenings to change your voice and your life. 

Is the Voice Discovery Lab a good fit for me?

The Voice Discovery Lab is a great fit if you…

  • want to feel empowered singing in front of others — even if you have had no singing background at all or have a significant fear around singing

  • are interested in discovering new possibilities in your voice, like "screaming" sounds, sounds rooted in specific emotion, and ecstatic singing

  • want to experience how your voice can uncover self-understanding, personal empowerment, and healing in your life

  • want to build the connection between singing and pleasure

  • would like an opportunity to experience care-free play

  • want to feel more confident singing with your true voice in the real world

  • and/or would like to apply this work to a song to present to the outside world

What others have said about this voice work:

“When you encounter healing magical moments, words feel truly limiting. Wow. Tyler walked with me into the vulnerable places of my spirit - the joyful spaces, the grieving spaces, the uncertain and unsteady spaces - and he helped me emote, embody, and vocalize the narratives that lived there. I have not been in any "singing" or "voice" lessons prior to this. I am just a girl who wants to share love with my voice. Tyler helped me learn how to sing with the resonance and vibrance I deeply feel in my soul but have been unable to express fully. Thank you, Tyler, for the gift of your guidance and the safety to explore the stories of my soul!” - Sam P.

“I am someone who was told they couldn’t sing at a young age.  Yet in one session Tyler got me to sing with an openness that felt empowering and emotional. His teaching was insightful, encouraging, and helpful.” - Clare

I used to train my vocal so it hits a certain key & imitate other people out there, but Tyler’s workshop empowered me to explore some deep emotions and to channel them just the way I feel.. this is profound because in 2 hours I manage to drop my guard, felt more confident with my sound & recognize my voice is a true gift that shouldnt be hidden 💓 big thanks to Tyler."
- Cassandra S.

“Tyler’s method doesn’t have you doing runs or scales like you would in your typical voice lessons. I was often left speechless […] I wasn’t learning how to sing, I was learning how to reconnect with what it means to be human.” - Justin K.

“I am a life long vocalist who has tried many different types of training to expand my voice. Working with Tyler […] helps me to explore my voice and my being in ways I could have never imagined. Tyler has encouraged a confidence in my vocalizations, and in me that nurtures my creative path as a singer-songwriter. By addressing the voice, [this approach to voice] addresses the whole. […]” - Liana

“I had the pleasure of attending [a group workshop] last fall and witnessing the transformative, transcendence of confidence that emerged among our small group. Tyler's blind confidence, faith, compassion, and encouraging energy towards us to beautifully sing with our naturally given voice produced inner and group acceptance and joy!” - Diana
