“Jessica holds a powerful, welcoming space for you to expand the depths of your embodiment and voice. Parts of me that I hadn't previously felt came alive in our journey, waking up dormant archetypes through my voice. I have felt a growing confidence in bringing my voice through and an ability to let go of judgmental thoughts that keep my voice repressed.”

-Bianca Abbott, Kundalini Yoga Teacher and Integrative Medicine Practitioner
"It was an absolute joy and honor to work with the incredibly talented Jessica... I am very comfortable with singing mantra but wanted to explore more facets of my voice. Jessica's wisdom is evident and her awareness to subtly is so helpful. She immediately set me at ease with her warmth. She carefully took the time to listen and helped reveal the deeper blockages I was experiencing with my voice. She gave me incredibly useful visual tools and the improvements I hear are beyond expectations. My six year old son and my yoga/meditations students were blown away!"
-Michelle Rassner Cash, Yoga Teacher
"Besides being a beautiful being of love and light, Jessica is everything I've ever wished for in a singing and guitar teacher. She has a way of knowing intuitively exactly where she needs to meet you along the path of learning. My voice and guitar playing techniques have definitely improved since I've been taking lessons with her. She's a very dedicated, formal and flexible teacher. Plus, she's a lot of fun!!! She's the best!! She'll be my teacher for many years to come."
