My Personal Journey

Welcome to Body Heart Voice, I'm Liesl McPherrin. I am a classically trained singer, professionally performing in opera and choral music, as well as a voice teacher & choir director. I earned my Bachelor of Music at San Francisco State University and Master of Music in Vocal Pedagogy and Performance at Westminster Choir College.
I attended Westminster Choir College in Princeton, NJ for my Master of Music in Vocal Pedagogy and Performance. I earned my 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training certificate through YogaRenew, where I also earned my 20 hour Yin Yoga teaching certificate.
Voice science has always supported a prime physical condition for singers. Through voice lessons, my students learn the value of personal discovery and self-care, as well as a foundation in healthy technique. We occasionally use yoga movements and techniques to release tension in the body and allow singers to discover a free, healthy sound. I actively support the learning opportunities for all students and the continuing education of teachers. My goal as a teacher is to help young artists overcome the fear and anxiety involved in performing and develop sound, healthy techniques so that they can truly create art with their voices.
When our bodies can express joy, fear, anger, and sadness freely, our voices can do the same. Body Heart Voice is a place to study singing where musicians of all ages can express their music in a supportive and friendly environment.
