Diversity & Inclusion
Our Commitment To
We at Meisner in Music acknowledge that Black, indigenous and people of color have helped to build and contribute to our society culturally, socially and artistically, while continuously being hidden in the background and not given the equity that is deserved. We care about making sure these groups experience an overwhelming amount of generosity and kindness to share a fraction of the opportunities that need to be repaid. Hopefully even the small contributions we can make can be a pathway to opportunity, acceptance, and self-actualization.

What is
Singers are notoriously in our heads.
While acting requires vulnerability and right-brained artistry, singing requires technical prowess and left-brained analysis.
The great acting teacher Sanford Meisner tells us that
“thinking has no part in this process.”
Can truthful acting and beautiful singing coexist
...and could Meisner be the link?
is
a way out of your head,
"For the first time, I could sing without an inner monologue of pressure and inferiority."
-Kyle Hughes,
a safe place to sing,
"This class was the first time in a long time where I was able to let my guard down and be 100% honest in my acting."
- Madeline Metzger
& a path to falling back in love with singing.
Meisner in Music teaches singers to stay out of their heads
by singing into the moment.
Our class allows singers to
-
Act on impulse rather than editing and over-thinking
-
Cease worrying about sound and have confidence in their vocal technique
-
Trust that they are enough and that their connectedness to what they're focused on will speak for itself
Come join us to experience this game-changing technique
& create your most truthful acting in song.
