Young Anna in Frozen National Tour

Alyson is so crazy and fun and an amazing voice teacher! I have learned so much from her and not just about singing! I also learned how to sing like a teddy bear (mixed voice) haha! I love her so much and always look forward to seeing her funny face and blond hair and taking so many screen shots so I can always look at her (and annoy her).

Alyson isn’t just a teacher - she is an incredible role model who inspires her students to be their best, most authentic selves. She uses a multitude of training techniques dependent on the student, and is both honest AND encouraging. I have learned so much working with her, and I don’t know another person who doesn’t say the same!

It’s hard to put into words just how much my acting teacher Alyson Isbrandtsen has meant to me over the years. Without her guidance, mentorship, and unwavering support, I never would have become the successful actor I am today.

She is a true master of her craft, and her passion for acting is contagious. In every class, she pushed me to be my best, to dig deep and find the truth in every moment…I will always be grateful for everything she has done for me, and I know that I will carry her lessons with me for the rest of my life.

If you want to become a great actor, or just a better person, I can’t recommend my acting teacher highly enough. She is simply the best.

I’ve been working with Alyson for just about 3 years and have grown so much as a singer from her training. Aside from the incredible things she has taught me about my instrument, Alyson is always there to talk and support me in any way she can. With Alyson I’ve learned to take care of my voice especially while it’s changing, and I’ve gained a real sense of confidence as a performer!

I have been training with Alyson for quite some time now, and I can confidently say she is an absolutely incredible vocal coach. Under her guidance, I have achieved some of my biggest milestones, including booking roles like July on the Annie National Tour and Susan Waverly in White Christmas at the Paper Mill Playhouse. Thanks to her expertise and support, I’ve also earned callbacks and had the opportunity to perform in front of casting directors for some of the most prominent Broadway productions. I truly could not have done it without her.

What sets Alyson apart is how she goes beyond just teaching you the notes. She not only helps you maximize your vocal potential but also teaches you how to truly perform the song, which is such a vital part of the audition process. Her coaching is thoughtful, detailed, and tailored to each student, and I always feel like she gives 150% in every session. Alyson is so easy to work with and incredibly friendly, making every lesson a positive and inspiring experience.

Working with her has not only helped me grow as a singer but also as a person. I feel so much more confident walking into audition rooms now, knowing that I’m fully prepared, thanks to Alyson. I would 150% recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing, dedicated, and highly talented vocal coach. She has been such a blessing in my life, and I cannot thank her enough for all she has done for me.

I never expected that my voice teacher, Alyson, would become a second mother to me. Along with her exceptional talent, unwavering loyalty, and boundless compassion, she has become a lifelong mentor. Without her guidance, I wouldn't have reached the level of success I have today. What's even more important to me is knowing that she's always there for me beyond just vocal training. Her ability to form strong bonds with her students sets her apart from other voice coaches. Alyson's knowledge of her craft is endless, but what truly makes her special is that she's not just a teacher, she's family.

Alyson is really specific in her work, and she has a really big tool kit that she could adapt to anyone's specific vocal issues. I loved how she corrected my open vowels. She doesn't miss a beat!!

Alyson is the most amazing vocal teacher! Leila has learned so much about technique and artistry under her guidance. She is always supportive and there for us through auditions and moments of need. She is caring and generous with her time, talent and heart. She genuinely cares about all her kids and strives to give them the best. We look forward to many more years with Alyson.

Alyson has been with Colby since the very beginning of her journey, when she was 5 years old and introduced Colby to her manager. Through the years, Alyson has not only been Colby’s voice teacher but has truly served as a second mom, someone that Colby looks to for advice on literally everything. Alyson cares about the entire person that Colby is and makes sure all of her needs are being met as a child actor: her voice but also her mental well-being and physical vocal health. Alyson goes above and beyond for every kid she works with and truly cares about them as her own. As a mom, I know that when I send Colby to Alyson for a lesson, she will come home prepared in every sense and feeling confident and proud of her work. Karen Kipnes (Parent of Colby)

Ever since starting with Alyson I have been able to grow not only as a singer but as a person. Overall, she has taught me to be more confident which I have learned makes me a better singer. Without Alyson I would not have been able to make it through my first callback, because when you work with Alyson you are not just getting a voice teacher you are getting a friend and mentor. She is so knowledgeable about all things show business as well and I am so lucky to be one of her students.

Alyson has been my voice teacher for a little over two years now. It is crazy to think that I had barely booked a show at that time, and now I have done more than one regional theater production, I’ve been on Broadway, and now I’m going out on a Broadway Tour! One of my favorite things about Alyson is that she always wants to talk to me after my auditions, and hear about every single detail of how it went. Because that is how she is. She cares about all of her kids so much and that’s why we love her!

It was important to study with a teacher who was not only knowledgeable but also encouraging and challenging. We have found that and much more in Alyson. She is not only a wonderful teacher, but she’s a wonderful human and influence.

Alyson has been transformational in my vocal growth and performance journey. She is the only vocal coach that I have had that has customized and tailored my lessons specifically to me. Her thorough vocal warmups and endless arsenal of tips and tricks help her stand out from others. She is constantly increasing her knowledge and pedagogy of the voice, so she can teach with the best information possible. My confidence, as a performer, is the byproduct of our lessons together. Thank you, Aly!

We cannot say enough good things about Miss Aly! Each session is a tremendous help, but for vocal performance and technique. Aly even recorded a vocal warm during a session and it’s become the daily pre-show routine. She is honest, has a great sense of humor, and treats her students like they are the smart, capable people that they are. Miss Aly is the best in the biz!

I can honestly say that there is no better voice teacher and coach around than Alyson. Her technique is on point. She keeps my voice healthy and always brings new methods to every lesson. Because of her, I am able to maintain my vocal range through different genres, whether it be Broadway, pop, or singing in a rock band. I'm so grateful to have found her!

Alyson has been my music teacher for almost two years. I have had many music teachers before, but none have been quite like her. She gives great advice but always tries new techniques and strategies to improve your voice. She has unconventional strategies to help with singing and acting, which may feel weird at first, but they help and are fun at the same time. Personally, I needed to get out of my comfort zone and get comfortable in my own skin, and she challenged me to do that. Alyson helps her students grow as actors and singers but as people too. I have never had a boring lesson with Alyson; she makes everyone feel comfortable and welcome.
