I could write a book singing the praises of Kat! As a vocal coach she patiently worked with my daughter-- transforming her from a self-doubting singer into a confident, skilled vocalist.  Patiently working with her through numerous BAL performances as well as the intimidating high school admissions process, Kat has been a constant, loving support and an excellent role model. Her kindness and just plain awesomeness has nurtured my daughter into the self-assured performer she is today.

Auditioning for a musical theatre program was extremely daunting. As someone who has much more training in dance and vocals, I was very pessimistic about my chances. Thankfully, through audition prep with Kristen that all changed. Kristen gave me the tools and coaching I needed to deliver my auditions successfully and with pride. Not only that, but she helped me ground myself throughout the extremely stressful process and I'm eternally grateful.

We are so happy we found Ruthy at Brooklyn Acting Lab. Our kids love working with her, and we can really see how much their voices have grown. She makes lessons fun and encouraging while still helping them build real skills and confidence.Our kids always look forward to their sessions and feel supported and proud of their progress.

I came in expecting just to choose and practice a monologue, but instead, Kristen helped me not only to get a monologue that fit me, but gave me skills that really took me to another level as an actress. Working with Kristen was a pleasure and I couldn't  recommend a better teacher to select and rehearse the perfect monologue for any audition.
