The Heart-Based Singing Method

Heart-Based Singing is your connection to a cutting-edge strategy of classical vocal technique which enhances and refines all types of singing including pop, musical theater, and classical singing.

 

Heart-Based Singing is rooted in science and anatomy while taking into consideration natural energy patterns and flow. Its foundational and straightforward presentation is accessible to amateur and professional singers alike.

  

It is subtle as well: it fine-tunes and suggests ways to enjoy singing from an energetic perspective.

 

As a mentorship program for new voice teachers, the principles of Heart-Based Singing are offered to help clarify your pedagogy and to uplift your vocal studio.

 

Freedom, and its complement of stability within the body, is explored and brought into consciousness through this fun and beautiful approach. 

Our Philosophy 

It is your birthright to sing

Free breath equals free voice  

Your heart is the hub of all expression 

An informed singer is an empowered, happy singer

Heart-Based Singing Agatha Carubia Voice Teacher

"Agatha is one of a kind: passionate, powerful, in-your-face-blunt, compassionate, generous, nurturing, and above all an extraordinarily talented teacher who is fiercely committed to her students. I have personally witnessed again and again over the last twelve years her students having break-through moments of vocal and personal power transformation. Her years of teaching and research culminate in Heart-Based Singing the book and her unique method can now transcend the boundaries of her private studio and be shared with the world. What a profound gift to us!"
