We also have GROUP PROGRAMS for specific kinds of singers with focused goals:
AHN offers two different online group coaching programs that might interest you. See if either catches your eye:
Do you want to improve and transform your voice as fast as possible? ☛ The Voice180 Program
Transform Your Voice in Six Months in Voice180 Online Group Coaching Program. Nicknamed”The Accelerator,” Voice180 is a six-month transformational singing instruction and coaching program for singers motivated to improve. This is a six-month intensive for serious singers ready to go all-in to transform their voice in as short a period of time as possible. Not suitable for beginners. Requires application/acceptance to the program.
Do you want to sing better and sing for the long-haul, through any and all health, body, and lifestyle changes that life throws at you? ☛ The Keep Singing! Program
The Keep Singing! Online Group Instruction, Coaching, and Community is for any singer over age 16. It can be especially great for singers over 40 who are dedicated to keeping their voice powerful, agile, controlled, expressive, and joyful throughout every decade of life!
Do you want to have performance opportunities in a supportive, like-minded community, as well as receive feedback and be encouraged? ☛ Either program!
Don’t let the “private” versus “group” language fool you into thinking that a group coaching program wouldn’t give you as much benefit or opportunity as private lessons. In many, many ways, it gives much, much more. So, be sure to read the pages/descriptions to see what seems to catch your attention and make you start dreaming bigger dreams about your voice!

“Your kindness and positivity gave me the courage and confidence to try something I’d always only fantasized about.”
LORI P.
“Thank you so much for giving me such a great start. Your kindness and positivity gave me the courage and confidence to try something I’d always only fantasized about. I’ve wanted to sing and play the guitar since I was a young child and now I’m actually making it happen. I will never forget the role you played in getting me started. I hope all is good with you and that you are happy inspiring others to make music. It’s something you do so well.”
“My pitch, tone, and range have improved dramatically…”
Sean e.
“I came to Natalie tone-deaf, at 23 years old, with no singing experience, never having sung in a chorus or ensemble of any kind. I now have the technique and confidence to sing out whenever I have the time. My pitch, tone, and range have improved dramatically. If you take lessons from her, heed her advice, and practice diligently, you will not be disappointed.”
“…everything you could want or expect from your instructor.”
ed L.
“Natalie has truly been a blessing for my girls. At the conclusion of the very first lesson I could hear the difference in their voices. Focused, projected, strong. And the improvements kept coming. Lessons focused on vocal exercises, breathing techniques, phrasing. … Natalie cares not only about what she’s teaching, but whom. And I found that to be of the greatest benefit to my girls. Her easy-going manner and warmth immediately set my girls at ease, allowing them to sing unencumbered and unafraid. Confident. And with confidence potential is limitless!”
