I’m Justin Petersen. I help singers achieve their vocal goals by taking a functional voice training approach, allowing them to sing the way they want to, not the way they HAVE to.
Freely, easily, and authentically.
I’m a voice teacher, vocal coach, writer, and pedagogue located in Boston, Massachusetts and I’ve helped hundreds of people with their vocal development. The joy of singing and music belong to us all.

What folks are saying about Justin
Confidence and skill
My son has been studying with Justin for about 10 months now and what a difference. He has made such strides under Justin’s instruction. His range has increased on both the top side and the bottom. His voice control has allowed him to start doing runs and add vocal inflections he was not able to do before. My son enjoys singing much more now because he can do things vocally that he only imagined before. Go Justin!

Healthy singing
“I’ve worked with vocal instructors across all schools of teaching including, pop, rock, classical and opera, and Justin has in my humble opinion displayed such an aptitude to rapidly and effectively teach me how to use my body in powerful and healthfully reproducible ways, that it doesn’t seem unlikely that Justin is on par with the greatest instructors that Boston has to offer.”

Nurturing space
Justin’s studio is a safe space. Any fears or ego quickly dissolve after a few minutes of vocalizing with him, and gradually a natural, truthful voice emerges that you might not have known you had. His devotion to teaching, his gentle manner, his comprehensive knowledge of the human voice, his kindness and delightful sense of humor cultivate a secure, comfortable studio environment. I’ve come to realize through lessons with Justin that encouraging and embracing a peaceful spirit make for an open, warm, honest sound. I often leave Justin’s studio feeling the way I do when I leave yoga. I am proud to call Justin my teacher.
