Same Singing Athlete framework. Same five-second feedback loop. Same coach. Just delivered over video.
The concerns are reasonable. The answers are simpler than most people expect.
Yes. Modern video audio carries vocal coordination, register transitions, and the patterns Greg listens for. Wired headphones on your end and the platform handles the rest.
The first session usually answers this. Greg's coaching is conversational, observation-based. The screen does not get in the way of that. Online students often forget the camera is there ten minutes in.
Same method. Same coach. Same five-second feedback cycle. The only difference is whether your camera is in Salt Lake City or somewhere else. Online students hit the same milestones in-person students do.
Most singing instruction assumes the coach needs to put hands on the singer. Some methods do. The Singing Athlete framework that VoiceCraft uses does not. The coach's job is to watch what the body is doing, listen for the pattern, and test a small adjustment. The singer reports back in five seconds whether it helped.
That entire loop fits inside a video call. There is no part of the diagnostic that requires being in the same room. A jaw clench is visible from a chest-up frame. A shoulder lift shows up clearly on camera. A held breath is audible. The drills are tested the same way: try, listen, keep what worked.
The students who do best online are the ones who treat it like in-person coaching. They show up on time, in a quiet room, with headphones on. They sing into the camera the way they would sing into a music stand. The voice does not know the camera is there.
Greg watches and listens for the patterns blocking your voice. Jaw, neck, shoulders, breath, the small things that throttle your range. The video frame catches these as well as the studio does.
Every drill is a test. We try something, you sing, your voice answers in five seconds. We keep what worked. By the end of the session you have a short list of adjustments your voice has already approved.
You sing the song you actually want to sing. We work the spots that are not landing. Audition cuts, performance pieces, karaoke favorites — all welcome.
Lessons are not recorded by default. If you want a recording for practice between sessions, just ask before we start. The platform handles it; you get a file you can play back.
Google Meet by default. Zoom on request. The link is in your booking confirmation. Show up 30 seconds early to test audio and headphones.
Greg listens and watches. You do not need to warm up first; the warm-up is the diagnostic. The first verse usually surfaces the pattern.
Greg names what he is seeing and tries something. You sing the same phrase again. Your voice tells both of you in five seconds whether it helped.
By the end of the session you have two or three drills your voice already approved. We talk about how to use them between sessions. That is it.

Yes. The Singing Athlete method is observation-based — Greg watches what your body is doing, listens for the pattern, and tests an adjustment. Video conveys all of that. The five-second feedback loop is identical to in-person. The only thing in-person gives you that online does not is a hand on your shoulder, and that is rarely the lever the voice is asking for.
A laptop or tablet with a webcam. Wired headphones (not bluetooth — the latency hurts feedback). A reasonably quiet room. Decent home internet. That is it. The studio side handles the rest.
Google Meet by default. Zoom on request. Both work fine. Lessons are not recorded by default; if you want a recording for practice, just ask and we will turn it on.
Less than you would think. Modern video call audio is good enough to hear vocal coordination, register transitions, and the patterns Greg is listening for. Wired headphones on your end help. A built-in laptop mic is usually fine; an external USB mic is a nice-to-have, not a need-to-have.
Yes. The most useful framing is from chest up — Greg can see jaw, neck, shoulders, breath. If a particular drill needs to look at your full posture, we ask you to step back from the camera for that part. Most lessons run with a chest-up frame the whole time.
No. Same coach, same method, same time per session. The only difference is whether your camera is in Salt Lake City or somewhere else.
Online from anywhere. Bring a song. We will look at where it is sitting in your voice today and test one adjustment. You will leave with a clear sense of what is reliable and what is in the way.
