You were created to SING!
From Cry to Song - The Science Behind Your Voice
Did you know the same muscles you use to cry are the same ones you use to sing?
From the moment you were born, your first cry activated the same vocal mechanism you'll use your entire life to express yourself through song. This isn't just poetic - it's physiological truth.
But somewhere along the way, many people's voices get suppressed. Maybe you were told to be quiet. Maybe your culture didn't allow you to use your full voice. Different cultures have louder voices because they have freedom to use their voice - and when that freedom is taken away, the voice shuts down.
When I work with students, I help them figure out when and why their voice was suppressed. Because the cry of your heart IS the song of your heart. And that's where real vocal freedom begins - not just technique, but permission to USE your voice the way God designed it.
Whether you're a complete beginner or a seasoned professional, this journey unlocks your true vocal potential.
The Voice of Creation
In the beginning, God spoke everything into existence. 'Let there be light' - and there was light. His voice created mountains, oceans, stars, and every living thing. That same creative power lives in you.
Every morning when your feet hit the ground, you are literally standing on the Word of God. The earth exists because He spoke it. What He spoke is still here - you can feel it, see it, touch it. His voice is that powerful. His Word is that trustworthy.
You were created in the image of God - the God who spoke creation into being. Your voice is not an accident. It's part of your divine design.
Every living thing is doing what it was created to do - worship the Lord. And when you find your voice, you step into that purpose too.

The Journey - Non-Singer → Singer → Vocalist → Artist
Non-Singers to Singers
Many people believe they 'can't sing' - but that's rarely true. What they lack is understanding of how their voice works and permission to use it. I help non-singers discover the voice they didn't know they had.
Singers to Vocalists
Singers can carry a tune. Vocalists understand technique - breath support, resonance, registration, vocal health. This is where artistry begins to emerge with technical foundation.
Vocalists to Artists
The final transformation: finding YOUR unique sound. Your style. Your voice that no one else has. This is where technique meets identity, and you step fully into who God created you to be.
Why “Genesis of Vocal Freedom”?
Genesis = Beginning, creation, origin
Vocal Freedom = The ability to express yourself fully, healthily, and authentically through your voice
When you understand how God designed your voice and learn to use it the way He intended, you experience true freedom - freedom from fear, from comparison, from limitation. You find YOUR voice and YOUR purpose. There are over 6,588 vocal sounds you can make and then God created your vocal instrument unique to you. And then add your vocal cry, your life experience and every person has a voice that no one else can duplicate. The only time your voice is perfect is when you are singing fully yourself! My job is to help you find that and your style! That is where the vocal fun really begins!
My Approach
I don't just teach you to sing. I teach you to understand the instrument God gave you - the science, the mechanics, the theology of your voice.
I've worked with over 4,000 voices in 30+ years. I've seen non-singers discover they can actually sing. I've seen professionals break through to the next level. I've helped worship leaders find confidence and recording artists reach industry standard.
I understand both the spiritual AND scientific side of voice. Whether you're leading worship, pursuing a music career, or simply want to sing confidently, my approach integrates:
The Physical: Muscles, breath, resonance, technique
The Spiritual: Purpose, calling, stewardship of your gift
The Practical: Real-world application for worship, performance, or recording
“As a student of Carolyn's for many years, I can confidently say that she is an "above and beyond" vocal coach. She coaches not just the voice, but also the body, mind, and spirit of the vocalist. With her incredible knowledge, experience, and encouragement, Carolyn has guided both my daughter and me to become the best singers we can be and infused us with confidence to do more than we ever thought we could do. At each lesson, she shows that she's been thinking about our progress outside of lesson time by having a special coaching point or anecdote that relates exactly to what we are working on. As a continually learning and improving vocalist herself, Carolyn is always passing on new knowledge and best practice techniques to her students. Any vocalist, from beginner to professional, will benefit from being under her tutelage.”
