Sarah is the best! I came to her for help with my background vocal ability. I'm a touring side-musician and have worked for many decades on top-level tours. I've always sang background vocals, but was lacking in technique. I've taken lessons with other vocal teachers, but found them to give one-size-fits-all warm ups, without much explanation of why I was doing them. Sarah tailored exercises to my needs and has a deep understanding of the physiology of the voice which really helped me understand the mechanics of how the voice works. After just a few weeks, I'm singing more solidly, with more range and no strain. I just finished an intense round of rehearsals and had zero voice fatigue, what a difference! read more

I had an outstanding experience with Sarah from start to finish! The lesson itself was a masterful blend of technique and expression. Sarah was able to help me uncover my authentic voice while understanding the meaning behind what I was singing. Sarah's holistic approach helped me feel more confident in my voice and organic sound. I also felt very cared for by Sarah; she asked me about my piece and the goals I had with it prior to my lesson. She checked in often and cultivated a safe space of experimentation and play. I would recommend Sarah in a heartbeat, and look forward to the opportunity I get to work with her again! read more

My recent challenges in singing have been getting out of my head and singing more authentically. I have been seeing Sarah for about 6 months now, and I strongly recommend her for anyone looking for kind, empathetic, and precise vocal guidance. She notices and thoughtfully raises to my awareness the subtle ways that my body will tighten and *unnecessarily* obscure the authentic expression of my singing. She has held space for me to better understand myself (my voice) and cultivates an encouraging, helpful environment rather than a stern or forceful one. I definitely feel more confident and more in touch with my body (ie trusting it) while singing! Thank you Sarah! read more

Sarah is an amazing voice teacher! My kids have been going to her for about 6 months. She is so positive and helps them build their self confidence while also helping them learn how to sing. Highly recommend! read more

I love working with Sarah. She is good at working with me on practical lessons related to the singing I do with my band. Good explanations of what's going on with the voice and great warm ups. I've tried a lot of voice coaches and she is the best. read more

My daughter was involved with the Los Angeles Children's Chorus for five years when we reached out to Sarah for voice lessons. She wanted to work on her vocal presence. At her first lesson, Sarah helped her to find a beautiful tone and presence that was already in her! We highly recommend Sarah for the way she was able to assess where my daughter was at and bring awareness to some small changes that made a huge difference. Thank you! read more

Seeing Sarah weekly is truly one of the few things I look forward to doing every week. She is awesome! I wanted to take voice lessons as a hobby and found Sarah using Yelp. I have been seeing her for almost 2 months now and I have noticed progress in my singing and have been having fun while doing so. I have learned a lot about how to use your voice as an instrument. So if you are looking for a voice teacher, you should definitely see Sarah! read more

Wow. Sarah Reynolds has taught me so much about my voice as an instrument. Sarah teaches voice for both singers and speakers. I started taking classes with her to work on my breath support and speaking style for a TV gig. Immediately, we got to work with singing exercises (which actually changed the way I support my breath when I speak). Sarah is supportive and calm in her lessons. Her home studio is a very relaxing place, so it doesn't feel like work at all. She emails me after each lesson with a reminder of homework and setting up the next session with her is a snap! I would recommend Sarah to anyone who wants to work on their voice, or anyone who wants to learn about the instrument they carry with them all the time. read more

I studied under Sarah for a few years up until the pandemic when I had to put a pause on singing. She is a wonderfully talented teacher with a gift for helping students understand their instrument and how to develop it. She's great with communication and is always 100% committed to your journey. As someone who was never been fully comfortable singing in front of an audience, Sarah always encouraged me and gave me the perspective I needed to overcome my own challenges. She's so much more than just an instructor. She has strong technical ability, an excellent teaching style, and a mindful practice. She is one of the best teachers I've had in my life and is someone I really trust and respect. I have learned an incredible amount about my voice and who I am as a singer from working with Sarah. I will be going back to her as soon as I can. I highly recommend her no matter what stage you're at in your singing. read more

I just moved to LA 3 weeks ago and my first audition is a triple whammy. 2 Monologues and a song. I'm an actress that sings a bit and the truth is I had not had ANY voice lessons is quite a while. I'm also on a budget... so I started looking and looking for someone to help my confidence and help me make sense of this. I just want to do a good job... After much careful review here in Yelp and a follow-up from a friend I contacted Sarah. She answered immediately and next day I had a class. I have seen her twice and I am totally prepped for my audition. I now decided to see her once a month and work on some song options to be ready for anything they throw my way. If you want someone with knowledge and very professional call Sarah. You will NOT go wrong. She is also super sweet and helps your confidence as a novice singer! Thanks Sarah could not have done it without you! read more

Sarah really knows her stuff! She is nice, professional, and super knowledgeable. My voice has grown considerably stronger with her guidance, knowledge, and support. I highly recommend her! read more

Sarah is an incredible teacher. She is professional, positive, soothing and her lessons are always fun! Sarah recognizes what needs work and knows how to articulate it to her students. Her guidance is excellent. I came to Sarah completely new to singing, (nervous even) and I saw improvements in my ability very quickly. I would recommend Sarah to anyone who is seeking voice lessons or to learn/practice singing;  whether you're experienced or green. She is fantastic. read more

Had my first lesson with Sarah today. Admittedly I'm a "shower singer," so singing in front of someone is a little scary. However, Sarah made me feel very comfortable and she jumped right in with techniques that helped me improve my vocal range immediately. She's easy to talk to and her advice is very easy to follow. Thank you Sarah for a great first lesson! read more

I have been Sarah's student for just over a year and I must say she has been my favorite vocal coach by far, hence my return after having to see another teacher. She is very patient, extremely detailed in her methodology, and has given me the proper tools to reach my full potential. I foresee her continual vocal teaching while my aspiring singing career blossoms into something greater. read more

I starting taking lessons with Sarah after a 3 year hiatus from singing training and was blown away by how fast things started coming back. Not only was she getting me back on track, but she was also picking up where my last teacher left off, with no sense of having to start back at the beginning! She has a wonderful energy, is very supportive, and pushes you in the right way to not settle for anything less than your best singing! I highly recommend her for any singer at any level! read more

Smart and thoughtful and with an incredible intuitive sense of her students strengths. Looking forward to continuing with this wonderful instructor. read more

Voice lessons with Sarah Reynolds are a delight. In each lesson, she creates a positive, supportive space in which to grow. She possesses a unique ability to balance positive feedback with specific and constructive suggestions for improvement, and welcomes the singer to discuss what he or she is experiencing with his or her own instrument. It is an enlightening experience and it's clear Sarah truly cares about the growth and success of her students. Thanks to her guidance, I have experienced immense improvements in how I think about and use my voice. Highly recommend. read more

Sarah has been my daughter's weekly music teacher for almost a year now. The entire class of 3- and 4-year-olds enjoys her weekly lessons, and we parents appreciate her organization and enthusiasm! My daughter is excited to tell me about the instruments she heard, the songs she learned, and the games she played in class. "Teacher Sarah" is a big hit! read more

My 7 year old daughter has been seeing Sarah for voice lessons for about 9 months now and I cannot be any more pleased with the weekly lessons my daughter attends. I was looking for someone in my area when my daughter expressed an interest in singing, and I actually found Miss Sarah here on YELP. She is a wonderfully professional, patient and very knowledgeable teacher. The level of dedication she has to her profession really shows in her lessons and enthusiasm she brings to each and every session. Working with kids is not an easy task, and she has worked with my little ball of energy in such a way that has not only improved her skill level dramatically but she has instilled healthy habits (posture, annunciation, breathing, focus, patience) and self esteem far beyond what I could have even imagined. I highly recommend Sarah, and I am so happy I have found a wonderful place for my daughter to develop her voice! Its the one thing she looks forward to each and every week. read more

Sarah Reynolds is an amazing vocal coach. Not only is she extremely professional, but she is charming, witty, fun, charismatic and challenging. Taking vocal lessons with her would only be a compliment. Thank you Sarah!!:) read more

I was in town for six weeks because my band was touring in the area and I went to see Sarah in order to develop my voice. Sarah was a wonderful teacher - she was incredibly thorough and very good at explaining different techniques and exercises to me. She is always encouraging and gives 100% every time. She got sounds out of me that I never knew I could make! I told her that I prefer to use imagery when working with my voice and she really took this on board - she used a wide variety of inventive metaphors which really helped me understand how to work with my voice. Although she is from a classical background, she understands the demands of singing in a pop/folk context and tailored her lessons with me to this. After studying with her for six weeks I was so much more confident onstage and I continue to use the exercises and advice she's given me. And when I returned to LA next I hope to continue lessons with her. read more

I went to Sarah with little to no singing experience whatsoever and she has helped me build a foundation to a point where I can use my voice with confidence. She is very friendly and laid back and creates a wonderful learning environment in her home studio. I would definitely recommend her if you are looking to improve the quality of your voice... read more

Sarah is a wonderful teacher. The description of her services is apt. She is creative, she tries hard to make sure that you're doing more than just rote exercises, but instead wants you to understand why you're doing what you're doing and why it will benefit your singing. Her guidance is gentle but firm and she is generous with warm encouragement and praise. I have seen and felt real changes and am very grateful. (and she's a such nice a person :) read more
