Julia Johnson

Julia’s goal as a teacher is to help students unlock their greatest potential as a singer through a classical foundation which incorporates a full-body, healthy singing approach that promotes longevity in singing, and allows singers to find their own unique sound. Physically, it is important for students to understand the mechanics of how their voices operate, along with stripping away bad habits by focusing on the skills required for releasing physical tension. Mentally, it is important to remove preconceived expectations students may have for their voices, which helps them discover their uninhibited natural giftings and talents. Additionally, diving into a role’s character development is vital and adds that extra sparkle in performance from shaping phrases to moving audiences. Helping both professionals and students craft their voices into healthy and powerful instruments via technique, combined with strong character/role developments, grows the confidence and skills necessary to cultivate student’s instruments and gain the tools to succeed.
