Where do I begin. It's so much more than just voice class..... it's a lesson in life on how to challenge yourself, how to prepare yourself and how to present yourself.

"Vielka understands the importance of vocal technique and is incredibly well trained in her field.
Her concepts are easy to understand and she knows exactly what to say to get your voice where it needs to be.
Not only is she a great teacher, but she is a kind and caring person, and I can’t thank her enough for all of the knowledge and opportunities she’s given me."

LIFE CHANGING!!!! My daughter has been singing around the house since she was 2. Even without any lessons, she still managed to sound surprisingly good! But we wondered how much better she might sound if she had training on top of that. Enter Vielka's AMAZING TEACHERS at Young Singers Academy. In just two short years, my daughters sounds 100 times better. (To my ear, she sounds like a professional adult singer and she is only 13!

Vielka set me up to live a fulfilling life as a singer: some of my strongest friendships formed through my college theatre company, Penn Singers, when I attended The Wharton School, and I am performing to this day with the Village Light Opera Group -- almost 20 years down the path we started together."

Like most overscheduled kids, ours have cycled through a LOT of activities. I have to say that Young Singers Academy is so, so special and powerful in our lives for helping our kids find and cultivate their voices. AND - it's one of the activities that has actually translated gorgeously to the quarantine context.
Today was the recital, and though I miss packing it in to hear all the kids live, it was so fun for so many people to get to watch from all over. Check out ALL these amazing young singers that Vielka Kelly-Weiss and her incredible team has brought together (ours are on at about 20:00 and 24:30 :-)

My two daughters age 7 and 9 have grown so much as singers while working with Young Singers Academy. They have learned vocal technique and grown in vocal confidence. The teachers at Young Singers Academy are great with children and they bring an enthusiasm to every lesson!

I...truly credit you with Millie becoming not only more confident in her voice but more confident, in general.
Kim Nemser, Parent
Voice lessons with Vielka were “instrumental” in making my son's gap year a tremendous success both musically and socially. And his gap year also included two amazing internships, a video editing class and an exciting trip overseas. Now he's at college and doing well. He even started a band! At family gatherings we have a blast when his brother plays the piano and he sings."
