JRD Voice Studio: Singing Lessons in Chilliwack, B.C. and Online Worldwide!

Rock and punk singer who came to learn vocal distortion, and now sings Paramore songs while playing guitar

“Joslin is an amazing teacher! I would highly recommend her to anybody who wants to invest in really good quality private singing lessons. My expectations were exceeded, every single lesson.

She was so accommodating and worked with me at my pace. She really worked around my learning style and listened to what I needed in my lessons.

She is incredibly versatile and was able to help me with a wide variety of singing. I wanted to learn some pop techniques but I'm also interested in rock and punk. She was open to listening to my music and even though some of it was new to her, she was able to analyze the singing and tell me what techniques I need to practice to achieve my singing goals.

I enjoyed my lessons so much and have taken away so many tools. I feel so much more confident in my singing now.

I love to use singing for self expression and I feel like Joslin has added new colors to my artists palette - so many possibilities have been opened up for me.”

Singer-songwriter who found her breath and her power

"JRD Voice Studio has changed my life!! Singing has always been something I was very drawn to as a kid. I've always wanted to have the ability to sing in a way that was natural. However, singing always hurt my body, and It was very difficult for me to achieve my tonal outcome.

Through working with Joslin at JRD Voice Studio for a little over a year now, I am able to sing full songs in a natural and loving way. Singing feels natural and my body is at ease while doing it- which results in me loving the way my voice sounds when I listen back to recordings!! The results I have seen within my singing after I started working with Joslin at JRD Voice Studio have been incredible! 

What I love about lessons with Joslin is how she approaches everything on a real level. Because in her presence I feel safe to be myself and try new things, I can let my guard down and sing in my highest capacity - which results in me getting a lot out of our lessons.

I would absolutely recommend JRD Voice Studio and lessons with Joslin. Working with Joslin is the definition of what singing is all about! We dissect the science behind why my body reacts a certain way when I try to make a certain noise, break down how it is that I'm gonna get the tonal outcome I desire, and laugh and be silly while doing it. It is a very safe and welcoming environment where you can sing anything and everything you desire without feeling judged, only 100% supported!"

Started at 12 as a shy kid, now an RCM Grade 7 Gold Medalist and majoring in musical theatre

"I LOVED how Joslin made me feel so welcomed and loved every single class.

I was always a shy and nervous kid, and opening up to people was really hard for me. Joslin made sure I was always comfortable and helped me overcome my fears throughout the many years I've worked with her. Now, I am much more confident and extroverted in my singing, and in life!

If my best friend asked me about what lessons with Joslin are like, I would tell them that signing up for classes with Joslin 7 years ago has been the best decision I've ever made.

I truly LOVED every second I got to work with Joslin at JRD Voice Studio and I'm so grateful for all they've done for me. Thank you for being the best teacher I've ever had."

Actor who went from not matching pitch to reading music and singing in her auditions

“I can't say this enough but Joslin is an amazing music teacher. As an adult coming into music lessons, I felt self-conscious and uncomfortable with someone hearing me sing but also when I make mistakes.

Joslin helped me become much more comfortable and provided me with confidence to sing in front of casting agents.

My lessons are always fun and light which is what I prefer with my busy schedule. I'm taking a break from lessons now while I have my baby but cannot wait to get back to singing after my maternity leave.”

Built a stable, supported high register and continued to hone her artistic instincts

“The openness of Joslin as a mentor creates a safe and encouraging environment for the student to show vulnerabilities, thus to discover and to improve.

My understanding of breath and support became clearer. I was able to develop a more stable high register with support and encouragement from her. Joslin has been really patient and careful, to be sure that we really focused on the process, instead of the result.

Joslin's dedication toward teaching makes the human race shine brighter. The conversations one can have with Joslin explore and build one's artistry which is what singing and performing truly is about.

I would absolutely recommend Joslin and JRD Voice Studio 100%!”

Recovered from years of misaligned vocal technique, now sings pain-free

“Joslin is incredible. I came to her with a variety of vocal issues from a few years of unhealthy singing, and within a few months I was seeing HUGE changes, and am now able to sing without pain, and my love of singing has returned twofold! Her approachability, knowledge, talent, kindness, and unrelenting support have been so valuable and I recommend her to anyone looking for a fabulous voice teacher! She rocks!”

Opera singer who auditioned into, and graduated from, the Master of Music program at Western University

“Joslin is so encouraging and supportive, and helps me to be the best singer I can be. She is very kind and warm, and also generous with giving advice, which I really value coming from a highly successful singer with her rich and extensive experience.”

Accepted to New England Conservatory, Bachelor of Music 2021

“Before working with Joslin, I think that I still hadn't fully understood the concept of breath and connection. She also helped me use my full voice to sing, I used to hold back a lot. I especially liked how she always pointed out my strengths to me. It was a big encouragement! Our work together resulted in getting accepted to the New England Conservatory where I received a Bachelor of Music in 2021!”
