About

I am an experienced voice teacher of over 25 years, as well as having had an international singing career. The technique I teach has provided success to actors on Broadway, TV, rockers in concert, and those who just love to sing on their own. The children I teach work professionally, as well as at the amateur level. My students love the fact that I provide a positive method and attitude with encouragement and support. I also play piano as an added bonus, as we put your newfound confidence and technique into the repertoire of your choice, as well as into my suggestions. My students stay for the long haul, and are very committed, the way I am to them. Take a chance; you will not be disappointed!

I have had three lessons with Rickie so far and she has completely changed the way I approach singing. She breaks down the fundamentals and gives you a solid foundation on which you can continuously expand. She is incredibly encouraging and is amazing to work with. I have found my vocal coach. :)

Rickie is great. I have been "singing" in musical theatre for a little over 13 years now, and was always uncomfortable with the fact that I was lacking technique and training! Rickie has helped me so much to re-discover my voice, and unlock it's seemingly endless potential! I gain more and more confidence every week, and feel empowered after every lesson. I've been with her for barely 2 months now, and I already feel like we've known each other for ages. She's great!!!

I graduated with a degree in theatre and have always wanted to sing. I've toured with my dad and have taken voice lessons with many teachers over the years. Rickie Gole is the teacher I have been looking for my whole life. When I first tried her class all I knew about her was that her students (who I went to school with) were always getting cast and hired. They had beautiful voices and I wanted so badly to sing like them. Since taking lessons with her for about a month now I have discovered something else. I am finding a new voice that is completely mine. I leave her classes more confident, happier, and freer. My biggest obstacle so far is trying not to get emotional because my voice is shocking me. It's how I've always wanted to sing and never believed I could. I completely don't recognize it. Her genuinely warm and encouraging presence makes me unafraid to make mistakes and try new things and because of that I'm singing like I never have in my life. Thank you Rickie.

If you are in the market for a voice instructor, end the search here! Rickie is an outstanding teacher, incredible singer and a radiant person. I've been singing since I was young but never felt as connected to music or as proud of the work as I am now with Rickie. A true pleasure with shattering results.
