Mallory Music Arts Studio

Senior Recital Showcase #1 was epic with these amazing Studio Artists 🤩

THIS! This is why we teach😍

Some students leave your studio with stronger high notes.

Some leave with confidence to speak in class.
To audition.
To make friends.
To take up space.
To say yes...or no.

Some leave knowing how to handle nerves.
How to practice something difficult.
How to keep going after mistakes.
How to breathe through hard moments.

Some leave with memories of singing with you after a difficult school day.
Some leave remembering that your studio was the one place they felt safe to be fully themselves.

Voice lessons were never just about singing.

And even if a student only stays for one season, they carry pieces of your teaching with them for the rest of their lives. 💗💗💗

🥳So excited to congratulate Studio Artists JOCELYN TAYLOR and EMILY HOLLOWAY as NATS NATIONAL VOICE SEMIFINALIST WINNERS🥳

What a wonderful Masterclass today with retired Pacific University Vocal Music Chair and colleague Dr. Scott Tuomi, to prepare my students for next week's State Solo Music Championships! Collaborating with experts like pianist Jennifer Creek Hughes and Scott to elevate Musical Artistry makes my heart and soul sing 🎶💖

Sing like your Health depends upon it. It is Therapeutical to Mind, Body, Nervous System, Heart and Soul, and it is Immunity in Motion.

Your voice holds power far beyond words.

According to a fascinating study, singing for just one hour can increase your body’s production of secretory immunoglobulin A, or SIgA, by up to 240 percent. SIgA is your immune system’s first line of defense. It coats the lining of your mouth, throat, lungs, and digestive system, blocking viruses and bacteria before they invade deeper.

Researchers compared people who sang to those who simply listened to music or sat quietly. The difference was clear. Singing led to a massive spike in immunity, while the other activities offered only minor changes.

The act of singing is not just emotional. It is physical medicine. Breath control strengthens the lungs. Muscle engagement improves circulation. Vocal vibration stimulates healing in the chest, face, and brain.

Even more impressive? Singing activates the vagus nerve. This nerve calms the body, regulates stress, lowers cortisol, and balances your immune system. It is the body’s natural switch between fight mode and healing mode.

This is not about singing well. It is about singing fully. Whether it is gospel in a choir, humming in the kitchen, or belting a pop song in the car, your immune system listens and responds.

Singing also boosts endorphins, creating a natural high that relaxes the mind and energizes the body. In a world overwhelmed by stress, that shift can be the medicine many people never realized they needed.

So sing like your health depends on it. Because science says it just might.
Your voice is more than expression. It is immunity in motion.
