The VoxTape Method
IDENTIFYING YOUR STRENGTHS
You don't need to be able to sing every song under the sun... But you need to do what you do WELL. We help you find the prima voce, aka the sweet spot and pick the right songs for your voice to get that WOW effect.
CREATING OPTIONS
Once we know what kind of singer you are we dig deep into vocal technique to help you become a more well rounded singer. This is where you will learn all about expanding your range, eliminating any vocal cracks, vocal embellishments, releasing tension, etc.
ARTIST DEVELOPMENT
Lastly we can't forget about artistry - the whole reason why people listen to and make music. It's all about expressing yourself and connecting with people. We will help you develop your own sound so that you can fully and authentically express yourself.
What Our Students Are Saying About The VTS Coaching Method
"It Helped Me Realize How Important This Is To Me"
Ever been told that you shouldn't bother taking voice lessons because you'll never be a paid artist and that you should just get a "real job"? If you don't try, you'll never know what could have been.

"To Connect To Myself Through Music Has Been Life Changing"
Your audience can only connect with you if you are deeply and authentically expressing yourself. We help you forget about HOW you're singing certain notes, but rather focus on the story you want to tell.

"I Am Now OK With Being Heard And Taking Up Space"
Our method won't just help you to find your own sound and be a better singer, but also give you the confidence in all aspects of your life so that you can put yourself out there as an artist.

Non-Traditional Voice Training For The Contemporary Singer
Singing is hard, right?
That is a sneaky lie the music industry has been feeding us for decades!
No, singing doesn't need to feel hard, after all your singing voice and speaking voice are the same voice.
Now, I'm not saying that it doesn't take consistent practice and work, but singing should always feel good.
If you've been feeling overwhelmed with all the information online, you've been working with a coach but are feeling a little stuck right now, or you're new to vocal training and don't know where to start... I'm so glad you're here!
At VoxTape Studios we give you the full picture of the voice - the technical AND the artistic sides of singing - so that you can not only become a more well rounded singer, but also a more confident performer and artist.
Whether you want to work on
- Eliminating the vocal crack
- Expanding your range
- Make singing feel more effortless
- Sing with more dynamics
- Find your own voice
- Feel more confident performing and singing in front of others
- Sound and look more natural
We've got you covered and can't wait to help you explore your voice's full potential.
"I Finally Feel Comfortable With Pursuing Music More Seriously"
Oh, Olivia Rodrigo belted that note? So what?! Just because someone else sings the same song a different way doesn't mean that you are less of a singer. Singing a song in your own way shows your #radioeffect.

"I Have Become Proud Of The Things I Do"
Confidence doesn't come from validation from others, it has to come from within. That's why our method focuses on showing you your strengths so that you too can see your potential.

"They Helped Me Become More Of Myself"
We don't need another copy of the Billboard 100... We need tomorrow's top 10. One of our top priorities is to help you find your own sound and sing songs that let you express yourself to let your artistry shine.

What To Expect In Our Session
I have never met two singers who needed the exact same exercises, techniques and explanations...
That is why all of our lessons are completely tailored and personalized to our student's needs, wants and goals.
The VTS team consists of incredible coaches all with their own specialties so that you get exactly what you need.
To figure out what it is you need I always start out new students with a single trial lesson. Here's what you can expect in that session:
- Private 1-on-1 session with me (Lara) personally
- 45 minutes of training, 15 minutes at the end to come up with a game plan.
- We'll start with a quick chat about your experiences and goals with music.
- Workshop 1-2 songs together so that you can already learn something new and see improvements in your voice and I can get to know your voice and see what you need.
- The lesson is over Zoom and the link will be provided after booking.
If you're ready to try out our coaching method just click on the button below. It will take you to my booking page where you will get to pick a day and time that works for you for your lesson, fill out a short questionnaire so that I can prepare for our session together and book the session.
Once the session is booked you will get an email with the Zoom link and more information on how to best prepare for the session.
I can't wait to sing with you soon!

PS: Make sure you book now! I only schedule 10 days in advance and set a limited number of slots aside for private lessons.
Meet Your Coach & VTS Founder Lara Chapman
Lara is a professional singer, songwriter and vocal coach based in the US. She is best known for her viral Pop Song Exercises which have gathered millions of views and have helped thousands of singers improve their authentic voices.
Lara experienced the downsides of traditional vocal training first hand. The decades of voice lessons did help her become a strong singer... but these lessons left her confused and full of doubt about her abilities. It wasn't until after she found her strengths and her true voice that she started seeing her long awaited success in the music industry.
After having gone through the journey from vocal student to having the experiences of being signed to a manager, hearing her own songs on the radio, winning songwriting contests, and playing paid shows, she developed a vocal coaching method to help her students avoid all the confusion that she went through and help her students feel ready to start their career in music ASAP.
Before & After Of Our Students
The Power Of Storytelling
When Luciany first came to us she already had a technically strong voice, but she judged and picked apart every note she sang, which made her feel insecure in her art. Our method helped her how to left go of all that judgment and focus on the story telling instead. It worked so well that she even brought me to tears!

Make The Song Fit Your Voice
While most people would consider having a big range a blessing, it can also be a curse because it makes finding the sweet spot of your voice difficult. We helped Hermie pinpoint his prima voce and all of the sudden we all went from "oh he's pretty good" to "oh wow, where did that voice come from?!".

VTS Student Accomplishments
Playing Iconic Venues
VTS student and lead singer Billy from Billy & The Kidz went from barely opening her mouth singing a Bruno Mars song in her first lesson to finding her rock style, forming a band and going on tour. The highlight of their tour was playing the iconic Viper Room in Hollywood where the audience was singing their original songs back at them. The VTS team was pumped to travel across the US to be with Billy as she jumped into the professional music scene.
Signing Record Label Deals
Izzy Mahoubi started her lessons with us in her senior year of High School and decided to pursue music full time for one year after graduating. After putting her heart, sweat and tears into her music, by the end of that summer she was signed to Rude Records. This milestone allowed her to continue her music career and have the opportunity to get her songs from demo tapes onto major platforms. At only 19 years old she is able to confidently follow her passions and be a full time musician.
