I used to take singing lessons with Gfire when I lived in Austin but then I moved away. Once the pandemic lock downs hit I saw that she was offering virtual lessons online and so I reached out thinking at the very least I could increase my lung strength during these Covid times. It's been one of the smartest and most satisfying things I ever did! I live in San Francisco and we use Zoom but she also uses other video platforms. Not only are you getting great singing instruction, but she brings her yogic breathwork into the mix too. We identified a list of songs to work on which is nice. She suggested an aria for me and we've been working on that one for a while and it's amazing how much better I sing and how much my vocals have strengthened from my weekly practice and lessons. I know the other songs will be so much easier after this one. On top of being a great teacher , Gfire is just a wonderful person and I'm very glad I had the opportunity to connect with her again. She also teaches guitar, piano and songwriting and her students include both adults and children.

I took several months of lessons from gfire, and it was so good. I'm completely untrained as a singer, and I worked with her to learn a technique that taught me to sing in pitch, which is a ton harder than it looks. She taught me how to break down a song into individual, practicable pieces that I can really master. I have used these techniques outside of my work with her and they really work. Gfire is patient and has a great sense of humor, is professional and punctual, and patient. A great teacher.

I'm a singer in a psych rock band and have taken lessons from gfire on and off over the last 5 years. I had experience as a punk/rock shout-singer, but when our backup singer left I had to learn to sing harmonies. She really helped me hone in my issues of pitch control and taught me to break the music down and work through it the most effective ways. She is extremely patient, kind and passionate. I would highly recommend her to any kind of singer, child or adult!

With gfire's guidance, I've gone from zero musical background to learning how to place notes with my voice, to singing my first song. gfire has a method to teaching that is clearly the product of years of experience and research. When I describe her process, my musician friends approve. She's also an unfailingly positive and patient teacher. 5 stars--I recommend her!

gfire is a fun, encouraging and patient music teacher - who wants you to love music! She tailors lessons to what you want. She has taught our girls piano and voice for four years - and they ENJOY going to their lessons! She's coached them (successfully) through a number of musical and a fine arts school academy auditions. She's a great teacher!
