Singer, voice teacher, Somatic VoiceworkTM practitioner, vibrational sound therapy practitioner, choral director, composer, and owner, Jen L. Rose established ResonateYou in August 2019.
Jen has been performing since she was 9 years old, and loves to help people learn about their body as their instrument; it’s her favorite thing to do. She has been teaching voice for over 25 years to people of all ages: pre-teens, teens, and adults. Jen has been a member of NATS since 2014.
Gettysburg College, New York University, Manhattan School of Music, The Philadelphia Orchestra, The LoVetri Method, and the “singing your heart out while doing the dishes” method are all very important educational experiences in her background, as well as 20+ musicals on various stages throughout the US.
She loves to hike, look at the stars, intone on the chakras, and help people heal themselves through finding confidence in their voice.

ResonateYou Herstory
Jen established ResonateYou in the summer of 2019, with the desire to teach voice lessons and share sound therapy in a safe space setting.
Voice lessons are the heart of ResonateYou and the continued thread and foundation of the studio: to learn to sing in a safe space, whether you are a teen who is wanting to get functional training, a performing adult needing help with an audition, or an adult who always wanted to learn to sing and is coming back home to that desire/need.
However, nervous system regulation has always been a part of ResonateYou. In 2019, I offered Vibrational Sound Therapy (bowls on the body) to help raise the parasympathetic part of a client's nervous system. After shut-down, I moved into offering online, and then in-person group sound mediations as a calming, community resource.
In my continued training, I learned about nervous system regulation through Irene Lyon's courses, who teaches the methodologies of Peter Levine, Cathy Kainer and Steve Tyrell, and Moshe Feldenkrais. This training has more fully informed my 1:1 lessons, group classes, and online courses.
Circle singing is a large part of ResonateYou, and has been a way to combine voice, sound, and well-being in community.
In 2020, I began the Women's Singing Circle before covid shut down. In 2022, I introduced the "Sing Your Heart Out" Voice Embodiment Classes, and finally in 2024, The Somatic Singing Class was offered as an in-depth way of learning of how to sing, learn nervous system regulation, and sing in community.
Singing and drumming circles continue into year six as a way of connecting with others, and to our own sense of well-being.
In this next phase of ResonateYou, (year six), I am interested in sharing my teachings of my online "go-at-your-own pace digital courses, as well as providing "on-the-go" access to accountable warm-up practices, accessible songs, and healing chants, so clients can use their voice on a regular basis for vocal health, and well-being. Stay TUNED...
Values
Honesty. Integrity. Professionalism. Respect.​
Do what you are say you are going to do.
​
If you can't, apologize, own it, and repair as best you can.
​
Rest is just an important as hard work & flow.
​
Small choices each day add up to the life that you've carved out for yourself.
​
If you can't do everything, just do one thing and take the next step.
​
Intention behind your actions will open up the next step.
​
Everyone you meet is going through something: be kind and don't take it personally.
​
​
On Singing:
​
Everyone deserves the right to sing.
Everyone can sing if you allow yourself the time and space and patience.
​
Nervous system regulation exercises, healthy food, light exercise, and good sleep is essential to a healthy singing voice (and a grounded and happy life/mindset!)
​
Practicing is like brushing your teeth: you just have to do a little bit every day (not for two hours on Saturday.)
​
Not everyone will be lauded for their singing onstage, but it doesn't mean that you shouldn't sing anyway = Singing for ones' own self interest, actualization, and joy is just as important as being onstage.
​
There is beauty in the quiet voices as well as the loud ones.

I really can’t express in words how wonderful and really rather life changing your lessons have been for me. I did not think I could sing well and whenever someone would compliment me, I never took it to heart but your lessons gave me the courage and confidence to explore my voice and learn way more than I thought possible about myself.
