My time with Kristen has been and continues to be incredibly transformative. She makes an invisible instrument feel highly accessible because of her knowledge and ability to accurately communicate the nuances of the voice. Her sensitivity to both the emotional and physical aspects of singing has allowed me to produce sound with a much greater understanding of my own instrument.

So helpful, thank you so much Kristen! I felt at ease in my recording session thanks to our lesson. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

It's been an incredible privilege to be able to study with Kristen. She is a singularly expert, informed, tactful, strategic, gentle, supportive, encouraging, spacious, accommodating while encouraging, master of a teacher, and I don't know where I'd be vocally if not for her. She has taken my voice far beyond what I thought possible during my time studying with her. I wish all aspiring vocalists would get to study with her.

My time studying with Kristen has been a transformative vocal experience. Singing in a positive and encouraging atmosphere has allowed me to grow and experiment with ease. As a teaching artist, Kristen has found a way to easily incorporate teachable moments into our lessons, which highlight the deep understanding of vocal pedagogy. She has pushed me to be my best, while still catering to my individuality as an artist and a human. Kristen has given me the confidence to trust my instrument and that I have a voice that deserves to be heard.

I call Kristen Ruiz a voice goddess. She is transformational in the work she does with singers. I adore this woman. She is my voice teacher, mentor and friend. The way she teaches makes you feel as though you can do and achieve anything. Kristen is truly a positive light that shines 24/7. The tools she uses with her singers are out of this world incredible, and gets you to a place vocally you didn't think you could reach. The adjustments she does are ridiculously fast, that in one lesson you come out a completely new singer with more knowledge (and happiness) under your belt! Every change is nuanced, but it makes all the difference with where your sound energy is placed. I trust Kristen tremendously and would recommend her in a heartbeat! You'll feel it in the first few minutes meeting her. Trust me 🙂
