  • Christyne is absolutely wonderful! I have worked with a handful of other vocal coaches around the midlands and I can say that far and away Christyne has been the best! Not only does she have extensive knowledge and expertise on vocal technique and singing, but she does an amazing job at connecting with her students and making them feel comfortable and supported during lessons! All while purporting absolute professionalism and very affordable lesson rates. Cannot speak highly enough! Both me and my musical partner gig full time around the midlands and we both take regular lessons from her, and have both seen amazing progress since starting.
