Testimonials

"Fanny is a fantastic clinician and has worked with three of our choirs at Natick HS. Prior to each workshop, Fanny reached out to learn more about the choir and created a custom-made lesson with specific ensemble goals and skills in mind. In each workshop, she adjusted in the moment to meet each group where they were at and maximize student engagement. I observed Fanny's incredible ability to make concepts of AT relevant to each of our choirs, whether in-person or in a virtual format. All of her lessons included handouts and written resources that were crafted with students in mind. I would recommend her workshops in all performing arts classes and beyond!" - Kate B.

"Fanny Lora has truly changed my perception of performing and using my voice and body effectively to sing. She inspires me to work hard and practice intelligently, incorporating every part of my body and mind. Her emphasis on the entire body’s role is one aspect I have learned the most from. My singing changed when she taught me that singing is more than just the mouth and larynx. She is very vocal about releasing one’s unbridled voice, sharing our gift of music, and being open to mistakes. Because of her, I have the confidence and preparedness to audition for a music minor at my college and also have more confidence in my singing and myself. " -Sarah K.

"I highly recommend Fanny Lora for anyone considering voice lessons for their child. My 10-year-old daughter has learned so much from Fanny since she started studying with her earlier this year -- and what’s more, my daughter has enjoyed every second of it! Not only is Fanny a highly talented singer and skilled instructor, but she is incredibly warm and makes the whole experience fun and engaging for her students. My daughter looks forward to her lesson every week, and her love for singing has only grown since she started studying with Fanny. If you’re looking for a talented voice instructor to help your child hone their skills, increase their confidence and foster their love of signing, look no further!" - Stacy R.

"I love taking voice lessons with Fanny so much. She is such a sweet and kind person, and all of our work together has really helped me become more confident about my singing. I’ve been taking lessons only for a few months, and I’ve learned so many new techniques that I think are already improving my singing. I would highly recommend taking voice lessons with Fanny!" - Claudia M.

"Fanny is a wonderful instructor. My daughter originally came to her for help preparing for a role with a particularly challenging vocal part. Fanny helped her learn how to support her voice with appropriate body stance and free breath. My daughter was able to perform with ease— her voice was supported so she was free to act her songs without thinking about vocal technique. And on top of all that, she had fun. She is motivated to goes to lessons because she really enjoys spending time singing with Fanny. I can’t recommend her enough." - Kate F.

"In addition to being so talented in her own right, Fanny is always kind and professional. My daughter loves coming to lessons and I always feel comfortable leaving her in Fanny's capable hands." - Melissa H.

"It can be a challenge to find the perfect student-teacher relationship. I found that perfect teacher with Fanny. Fanny is a teacher who listens, cares, internalizes, and solves. Her calm demeanor truly made me feel comfortable; her enthusiasm about the AlexanderTechnique excited me anew at every lesson. Fanny took the time to truly know me as a person, a musician, and a musculoskeletal design. In her work with me, she combined each of these elements, and as a result, I have gained a deeper and lasting awareness of my body." --Stella G.

"I am a professional singer, and my sessions with Fanny Lora were an invaluable resource. So many of us put in lots of time in the practice room, forgetting that our entire body is our instrument. Fanny has a brilliant intuition, and her own experience as a performer lends her a great empathy and understanding of the way we use our bodies and the way that connects to our psychology. I walked out of my sessions feeling like I had simultaneously unlocked doors as a performer and as a human being." -Omar N.

"Fanny invites you into each session with a curious mind and embracing spirit. She is committed to supporting wellness and wholeness as you journey to develop awareness and integration of the Alexander Technique. I gained a level of understanding and a reminder, as well, of myself in relation to my kinesthetic presence in place and time. I thoroughly recommend Fanny as a teacher, guide and mentor." --Fran F.

"After working with Fanny, not only did I have a better understanding of the Alexander Technique but I also had a better understanding of myself. Her guidance throughout our lessons gave me the tools I needed to take our work and apply it into my daily life as a person and my craft as a clarinetist. She is a fantastic teacher and I thoroughly enjoyed our time together." -Ashley O.

"Working with Fanny always gave me a sense of reconnecting with myself and my own needs. Her calm and positive approach gave me the space and support I needed to explore new ideas and grow through the Alexander Technique." -Carol G.

"As a pianist and conductor, my work with Fanny has been extremely beneficial. Fanny's extensive knowledge of Alexander Technique and her warm, personable, and stress-free demeanor allowed her to guide me towards some discoveries that have transformed the way I approach my music-making. In addition, I am far more aware of the tendencies of my body's movements that have, over a long period of time, built into some tensions and pain in my back and in my feet. This new awareness has given me the opportunity to nip some of these issues in the bud before they become serious problems. I cannot recommend Fanny and her helpful take on Alexander Technique with enough enthusiasm!"
