ABOUT LIANNE
Testimonials
“The singing lessons I took with Lianne over many months made an incredible impact on my life. When I met Lianne I had just moved to Canada from Australia. I decided to take lessons, not necessarily to become a “singer” but, in the hopes of improving my confidence. I was shy, awkward and a very lost young woman.The hours I spent with Lianne were far more than just singing lessons, they were like weekly therapy sessions. It was my first experience with “therapy” and it changed my life. The time we spent talking started me on a journey of self discovery and has made me the strong, independent woman I am today.”
“One of my early childhood memories is of me entering a singing contest and winning. I won that contest not because I had the best voice. But because I had confidence when I sang. And that confidence helped me to sing better. As I grew into adulthood, I began to lose that confidence and hence so went my voice. There were times when I am alone and I have no worry about what I sound like. In those times I would hear that voice that helped me win that contest. In private I would open my whole voice and basically sing from my whole self. In public, I would get shy and sing from my throat. OMGOODNESS! This would produce a very different sound. In the summer of 2023, I took the week-long singing camp with Lianne Cranfield up at the Yukon University. It was an amazing experience. These are some of the things I came away with:* My voice is an extension of me. * It works best when I bring my whole self into the singing…her gentle teaching style helped me figure out how to accomplish this.* Not be shy to open my mouth and my throat and let the sound out.* Don’t stifle the sound* Be gentle with myself * My voice has feelings* Proper breathing techniques and so much more.I left that week with a whole lot more confidence in me. That week with Lianne help me learn some on how to navigate myself with confidence. That week didn’t just help my voice. It helped me. Life can get bust sometimes. So, I didn’t continue with Lianne as I had hoped. Unfortunately, I lost some of the things I learnt with her. My intention is to begin again. My goal is to learn the Ukulele. And sing along with it.The one thing that did stick with me, is to be gentle with myself. Thank you Lianne. I will be seeing you again. wise have been possible.”
“Lianne’s class was so valuable for me. It gave me a safe place to do a deep dive into how I can sing from my heart. I loved how everyone in the class supported each other to get to their best voice. Lianne’s instruction is powerful – She introduced self healing and regulation practices that helped me focus and dial into what really matters- sharing my authentic voice!”

I knew that I needed to take some steps toward healing so I decided to take a few vocal lessons.I am forever grateful to have found Lianne online, offering private vocal lessons…I found in her a kindred spirit. Lianne was so kind and such an amazing teacher. In such a warm and casual atmosphere I felt instantly at ease with Lianne. We worked together and over a few lessons I began to find my voice again. Tears were shed, hearts were opened and hugs were shared. Music is so very healing and I can’t thank Lianne enough for sharing her passion for music with me…I will never forget the positive impact that she had on my life.”
