"Oh, hey, so far, my first tennis lesson with Jerry was quite helpful. The focus on the basics felt pretty solid, and I appreciated the no-pressure vibe during the lesson. Honestly, the lesson highlighted the importance of good foundations, which I think will help me overall. I’m optimistic about how it’s going. I think trying out more lessons could really cement those fundamentals. If you’re after someone who keeps it practical and approachable, Jerry definitely is worth a shot.

"Fitz has been an absolutely incredible teacher to me. But he’s also so much more. He’s one of the absolute most remarkable human beings I’ve ever known and I feel incredibly lucky to have been his student. I am an adult learner who had taken extended time off from any singing while focusing on my career and raising a family. Fitz was a kind, but firm teacher with huge expectations as well as the skills and leadership necessary to help me reach his high expectations. In a lot of ways, it felt like I was starting all over and he was so patient at meeting me where I was and helping me to grow. He’s a master at technique, vocal health, strengthened my breath support, is a amazing with how to teach a variety of different languages for singing, and best of all-has a real art behind having his students connect emotionally to our music. In short, he isn’t just training singers. He creates artists. He doesn’t only forge relationships 1:1 with his students in lessons. Fitz has created a community among the artists that train under him. He created monthly singing salons where his students could come together and share our love for singing-whether classical, pop, and even some students who were writing their own music. This was in addition to our twice yearly performances where friends and family attended our performances to showcase what we’ve been working on. Fitz is one of the best studio teachers you can find, but he knows music is to be shared and fosters the artist community to come together with each other and perform in a variety of settings. You won’t find a better teacher, community-builder, or human being out there. I recommend Fitz without hesitation.
