Studio Class
TRAINING FOR INTERMEDIATE + ADVANCED SINGERS
A monthly group class for singers who are past the basics and want a consistent place to keep developing.
Each class includes a short lesson from a rotating DAMATO or guest Bay Area voice teacher, followed by live coaching as students sing for the group.
Singers get feedback on their own work, learn from other students’ coaching, hear different teaching perspectives, and stay connected to a serious, supportive studio community.

Technique Intensives
SPECIFIC VOCAL SKILL BUILDING
A monthly deep-dive class focused on one vocal or musical skill at a time — such as belting, runs, stamina, or expression.
Each intensive gives singers more time to understand the technique, try it in guided exercises, ask questions, and apply it directly to songs or musical examples.
Topics rotate through DAMATO’s vocal technique curriculum, giving students a practical way to keep expanding their range, control, confidence, and musicianship.

Private Lessons
INDIVIDUAL COACHING WHEN YOU WANT MORE FOCUSED SUPPORT
Private lessons give members individual support on the material, technique, or performance challenges they want to work through more personally.
Use lessons for songs, monologues, auditions, vocal technique, acting choices, confidence, or anything that needs focused attention beyond group classes.
Available to members on the 5-credit plan, as scheduling allows. 30 minutes = 2 credits · 45 minutes = 3 credits
