A song is within you…

Voice + songwriting coaching

for

the wild one within you.

Our world no longer sings. We have been told that our voices are
too loud, too quiet, or too abrasive.

How do we return to our unique individual Song?

How can we sing the Mountain awake at dawn?

How does our sound merge with the Owl as it searches for its beloved at twilight?

Everyone has a Song. What is yours?

About me

I believe everyone has a unique Song, and I’m here to help you discover the one that wants to be sung through your voice.

My name is Thylan, and I am singing the world Alive. I long to help you find and express your own voice, singing the world alive with your unique sound.

I offer holistic coaching that combines vocal techniques with building confidence in your authentic voice. Each session is tailored to where you are in your journey and your relationship with your voice.

I offer lessons in Durango, Colorado, where the mountains meet the desert. I also offer online lessons and travel frequently through California, Arizona, and Utah.

  • Hope M.

    “Singing in front of anyone has always felt super vulnerable to me and Thylan helped me feel so at ease while singing. She gave me just enough pointers to work on each week without feeling overwhelmed.

    When I first started singing, I felt nervous to play in front of just one person…after a few months of vocal lessons with Thylan, I felt confident enough to play an original song in front of a group of people. Thylan has a way of nurturing the tender parts of your voice and challenging you to push outside your comfort zone.

    Finding your voice can be a tender process and Thylan holds that space with such intention and care.

  • Jess B.

    "Thylan is a wonderful space holder and knowledgeable on explaining how our voices work to someone who has very little understanding of using this muscle.

    Her space holding is so helpful if you have any blockages that come to singing and using your voice like they did for me. I felt like I could show up fully and felt celebrated when I met the goals we decided upon together. "

  • Katie W.

    Before I started working with Thylan, I always loved to sing but lacked the confidence to express myself in this way. Through vocal coaching with Thylan, I feel a deeper connection to my own voice. She has not only helped me develop technical vocal skills, but she’s also guided me in finding my own unique sound, showing me which areas in which my voice thrives.

    One of the most powerful aspects of working with Thylan is how she approaches singing as more than just a technical skill—it's a spiritual experience. There are moments when singing feels transcendent, as if my voice is an extension of something much bigger than me.

    Every lesson leaves me feeling inspired and more connected to music. I’m so grateful for her support and expertise.

  • Brian R.

    "Thylan is an absolute gem of a vocal coach. Her fun and encouraging approach has been a total game-changer for me.

    Thylan is helping me build confidence by sharing amazing tools to learn pitch, rhythm, and vocal range. Her detailed notes and customized practice plans are spot-on, making progress feel exciting. Highly recommend Thylan to anyone ready to invest in finding their voice."

  • Shonna J.

    “From the moment I walked into the session, Thylan made me feel comfortable and supported, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere where I felt safe to explore my voice.

    By the end of our first session, I was already amazed at how much progress I’d made. Thylan showed me how to change the pitch of a song so that it fits my vocal range more comfortably. It was eye-opening to realize how much control I have over my own voice, and I left the lesson feeling so much more confident and excited to keep learning.”
