VOICE LESSONS

You are your instrument! Learn how to make your voice work for you in a fun and supportive environment.

For beginning voice students learning to sing can be quite a challenge. Our instructors are encouraging and patient but there is always a certain amount of unlearning and relearning that takes time and perseverance. An early goal for all beginning voice students is to establish good breathing techniques and a solid sense of pitch. We use a variety of fun exercises and whenever possible work in the context of songs chosen by the student to help reach these initial milestones. 


As singers start to get the basics down we encourage them to try new things and expand their palate, while working towards making their fundamentals second nature. Whether you're trying out for a school play, learning to sing and play guitar with a band, or just learning for fun we're here to help.

  Maximize your voice

Everyone is different and a big part of voice lessons is discovering what kind of voice you have and how to maximize it. For intermediate and advanced students this means learning how to sound like yourself and not an impression of singers you admire. Our instructors love collaborating with all students on how to do this and so much more.


Along with good technique, our instructors work with all of their students on how to preserve and safeguard their voice for a lifetime of singing. All voice students are invited and encouraged to take part in our regular recital concerts and open mics, as well as sing in our group programs.

Private Lessons at Sunburst

Trial Lessons

We recommend that new students begin with a Trial Lesson. These are offered at a discount and provide a great way for students to experience a full lesson, meet their teacher, and discuss their goals for lessons, all before committing to a monthly plan.

Book a Trial Lesson

  • Trials are limited to 1 per student per instructor, students are welcome to book additional trials with as many of our instructors as they would like.
  • Trials can be booked up to 2 weeks in advance
  • Booking a trial lesson does not guarantee the availability of the same time and/or instructor for ongoing weekly lessons.

Weekly Lessons

One-on-one private lessons provide the most individualized learning experience we offer at Sunburst. Our team of talented and patient instructors works hard to make sure we are tailoring each lesson to the individual needs of the student and allowing them to work at their own pace. 

Learning an instrument takes time and consistent practice, therefore our recommendation for most students is ongoing weekly lessons in the same time slot. These are offered in a few different durations, in general we recommend students increase their lesson duration both as they get older and more advanced:

  • 20 Minutes Weekly - 4&5 year olds only
  • 30 Minutes Weekly - 6 and up but recommended for younger kids
  • 45 Minutes Weekly - 6 and up but recommended for older kids, teens and adults
  • 60 Minutes Weekly - 6 and up but recommended for teens and adults
Our Lessons are month to month for a flat rate, and we have a very flexible cancellation and make up policy:

If you've already had a trial lesson, or if you are a former student looking to re-enroll, you can book weekly lessons here:

Private Lesson FAQ

  • When are lessons available?

    Our School is open 7 days per week, use the booking link above to pursue our availability for a time that works for you. If you can’t find anything, reach out to our admin team here, we may have more times available.

  • What should I bring to my lesson?

    We have all of the equipment you might need for your lesson, so you don’t need to bring anything to a trial. Guitarists in particular should bring their guitar if they have one but we recommend using one of our amplifiers. Once you’ve begun weekly lessons, your instructor may ask that you bring certain books or lessons materials, etc.

  • What happens if I need to cancel?

    We have an extremely flexible cancellation policy! As long as you can provide 24 hour notice you will have the option of scheduling a make up lesson. Please read our full policy details here.


  • Do I need to do a trial lesson?

    We highly recommend new students start with a trial lesson to make sure it’s a good fit with their instructor. 

  • What happens after my trial lesson?

    After your trial lesson you’ll have the option of signing up for weekly lessons with your instructor, either in the same time slot if it's available or another that works better for you. You can also book another trial lesson if you’d like to try another instructor. Please allow 10-15 minutes after your lesson time to discuss the options with our admin team.

  • Can I take my lesson online?

    Yes! When you’re booking your trial lesson you will see options for online lessons. All of our instructors who teach from the school are also available online and we have a few teachers who are fully remote. Make sure that if you’re booking with a teacher who only has online availability that you’re OK with lessons being online in perpetuity. Finally, if you normally come in person but would like to move one of your lessons online for convenience, please let us know at least 24 hours before the start of the lesson.

  • Do you offer Group Lessons?

    Yes! We have a few different options:

    • Group Lessons - these are similar to private lessons but for 2–3 students on the same instrument, see below for details.
    • Group Programs - these are things like band programs that are meant to be an add on for students who are already taking lessons.
  • Do you offer BiWeekly or Drop-in Lessons?

    While we recommend weekly lessons for most students, we also have a drop in lessons option, which is great for adults with unpredictable schedules. Drop-in lessons are similar to trial lessons in that they can only be booked 2 weeks in advance, and do not guarantee a reserved ongoing time slot. Book a Drop-in here.
