Be a part of a fantastically fun and fascinating group! This class has been extremely popular to singers at all levels. This is the same course that Ms. Neff taught at UCSF, where 100’s of students worked with her over the last ten years; many taking it on a continual basis to refine their skills or sing in a comfortable group environment.

I like to keep the group intimate so space is limited to 8 persons per session only, so call now to reserve space and please pass this on to anyone who might enjoy this class. It is such a wonderful way to start singing consistently in a supportive, educational environment.
