I love to sing, but have no experience.

No prior experience needed! The surest way to improve something is to start. Everybody has some amount of ability. At Heitmann Studio, Renee’s job as a voice teacher is to take that natural ability and make it the most beautiful it can be, without changing the unique nature of what it is.

Lessons are for just kids, right?

Singing is for everyone! Renee has worked with students of all ages and all ranges of ability. She has helped students as young as 10 prepare for (and nail) their auditions for performing arts institutions, as well as working with artistically active seniors and every age in between. Singing is for everyone and everyone can benefit from it.

How do I know Renee is the right teacher for me?

Part of any learning process is being comfortable enough to be vulnerable and make mistakes. Renee works from a place of positive encouragement, backed up by years of experience.
