VOCAL LESSONS

 Pedagogy and Voice have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve had incredible opportunities to learn from wonderful teachers and experiences, from earning a vocal performance degree at New York University that I carried into opera, musical theater, and cabaret productions, to overcoming a vocal injury, through which I learned so much about my instrument and the instruments of others. I have a sincere passion for music education for all age groups, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to share what I have gleaned as a singer with you! I hope you consider taking this opportunity to work with me as a vocal teacher and coach as we strive to achieve your music goals.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

“Working with Shaina was incredible – we laughed, we cried, we sang our faces off! Shaina is a passionate teacher with a big heart.” - Penny F.

“I grew up singing in choirs. While classical voice was such a joy I was afraid to belt. I’d start feeling immediate anxiety when I had the instinct to push. Shaina showed me how taking the stairs as she says causes that pain and how I need to press through the elevator. I felt really powerful feeling my voice reach new heights without sacrificing my range. Thanks, Shaina!” - Les P.

“Shaina Shepherd was my daughter Ellie’s voice teacher for 2 years. She was a weekly fixture in our home on the computer and Ellie throughout the quarantine and Ellie would get so excited to work on singing and songwriting with Shaina. Not only has Ellie discovered a passion for music, but she overcame her shyness and performed for our family this Christmas. Shaina is a very gifted teacher, and we are so grateful to have worked with her.” - Brooke R.

“My weekly hangs with the Goddess that is Shaina Shepherd kept me going through the quarantine. She always made sure that I felt the progress through every lesson. Shaina’s a very thoughtful teacher is spiritually gifted. I always left my sessions feeling better, stronger than before.” - Anna M.

“ You hear a singer as talented as Shaina and you’ve got to be curious about what makes her tick. I’ve been a performing artist for about 10 years pounding the pavement as a songwriter and touring artist. I reached out to Shaina for a lesson after I started getting some chronic pain in my throat post gig. I had heard that Shaina had overcome a similar injury and thought I’d check in on some tips. I didn’t expect Shaina to have so much knowledge on the voice as an instrument; within a few lessons, I was back in the studio hitting higher notes than I could on the demos and feeling fresh as a peach in between takes. Highly recommend singers try out a lesson or two with Ms. Shepherd.” - Navid E.
