ABOUT US
Vocal Advancement
In 2013, Vocal Advancement (IVA) was founded by nine singing teachers who shared a passion for singing and helping others find their voices. Our goal is to make the best singing training available to everyone and to advance vocal pedagogy. We believe that by doing so, we can make the gift of song available to as many people as possible.
Over many years, we've developed effective methods for training singers and singing teachers. Our programs help singers understand how the voice works and help our teachers quickly diagnose and fix vocal problems.
We work from the singer's perspective and consider the voice a single system composed of individual parts that every singer needs to learn to coordinate.
