Laura has been playing the violin since she was 5 years old and graduated with a bachelor of art in classical canto.

It was always her dream to manage and teach in a music school, this is why she opened her own in Bucharest. It had 2 branches and a separate recording studio location.

Laura loves her job because of the satisfaction she gets from witnessing her students' passion grow as they improve.
🎙️🎙️During her singing classes the students learn how to breathe corectly. She also teaches them about proper posture, rhythm, articulation and ear training exercises.
They will be able to differentiate and properly switch between voice registers, from chest voice, to head, mix, falsetto.
She will also show them different voice "effects" like vocal fry, adding distortion, using twang, belting...
🎻🎻During her violin classes, Laura will start with some exercises focusing on tehnique, scales, rythm and bow control.. Then they will brush up on the previous lessons, then they'll go through the homework till they finally get to the best part of the lesson: playing a song.
The violin aids in keeping a straight posture and improves the student's hands dexterity.
