Three Critical Challenges Every Choir Director Faces
If you're like most choir directors, you're probably experiencing at least one of these daily struggles:
The Teaching Gap

Your teacher preparation program was excellent—but it didn't prepare you for everything. The field of choral pedagogy keeps evolving, leaving you wondering:

-Am I using the most effective teaching methods?

-How do I continue to grow as a professional?

-What are the latest best practices I should know about?
The Time Trap

Your to-do list seems endless. Between planning rehearsals, organizing performances, handling administrative tasks, and meeting with students, you're drowning in responsibilities. You find yourself:

-Working late into the evening just to keep up

-Sacrificing personal time for program needs

-Constantly feeling behind despite working harder than ever
The Support Desert

Teaching choir can be incredibly isolating. While other teachers have department meetings and shared planning times, you're often:

-The only choir director in your building

-Lacking colleagues who understand your specific challenges

-Missing opportunities for meaningful professional development

-Struggling to find mentorship and guidance
You aren't alone!
Many choir directors struggle with these same challenges...
and I've spent the past 20 years working towards a better path!
My story
I know how you feel.
When I began teaching, I quickly realized how much I had to learn and that support was scarce. Determined to improve, I bought books, DVDs, and attended every available workshop, as my school's professional development offered little value.

Over the years, I dedicated countless hours and significant financial resources to honing my skills. Eventually, I was inspired to create the very resource I had always needed — a tool to help choir directors enhance their teaching, grow their choral programs, and access the support they deserve.

That's why I created this membership.
This is truly a game-changer.


Introducing...
The Complete Support System Designed Exclusively For Dedicated Choir Directors
Introducing: The Choir Director Corner Community Membership!

Finally, a membership that understands exactly what you need to succeed - combining proven resources, expert training, and a supportive community of choir directors who know exactly what you're going through.

This isn't just another collection of teaching materials. It's a complete support system designed to help you:

Transform your teaching effectiveness without working longer hours 

Build a thriving, sustainable program that runs like a finely-tuned engine

Connect with other passionate choir directors who understand your challenges

Access expert guidance exactly when you need it


Why This Membership Is Different


The Choir Director Corner Community brings together everything you need in one place:

Practical, proven classroom resources you can use tomorrow 

Meaningful professional development that actually applies to your everyday teaching

A focused community of serious educators 

Step-by-step systems for every aspect of your program


Who This Is For

This membership is perfect for choir directors who:

Are committed to excellence but tired of figuring everything out alone 

Want to build a thriving program without sacrificing their personal life 

Value ongoing professional growth and development 

Are ready to implement proven systems rather than reinventing the wheel


Who This Is Not For

To be completely transparent, this membership isn't for everyone. It's not for directors who:

Are satisfied with the status quo 

Prefer to work in isolation 

Are looking for quick fixes without putting in the work 

Aren't ready to implement new approaches


What Makes This Membership Unique

Unlike traditional professional development or online resources, the membership focuses on three key areas:

Implementation Over Information

  • Every resource, training, and coaching session is designed for immediate classroom use. No theoretical fluff - just proven strategies that work.

Systematic Growth

  • We help you build sustainable systems for every aspect of your program, from recruitment to performances, so you can achieve consistent results year after year.

Continuous Support

  • Workshops are not "one and done" like most professional development - you get ongoing access to expert guidance and a community of peers who understand your challenges.

Core Resource: The Choir Program Blueprint
The Framework that serves as the heart of the Membership

Members get access to exclusive content, professional development workshops, community support, and more, with The Choir Program Blueprint at the heart of it all. The Blueprint features eight Essential Elements of a Thriving Choir Program, designed to help choir directors chart a path forward, as well as focus their time and energy on the specific challenges that they face in their teaching. Here's what you'll get each month as part of the Choir Director Corner Membership:


What You Get

  • The Choir Director Digital Resource Toolkit, a bundle of 4 resources each month (handouts, templates, worksheets, rubrics, and more) that are rooted in the Essential Elements and directly related to your current teaching. These are designed to be plug-and-play resources that you can quickly incorporate into your choral classroom!


  • A Live, Members-Only Spotlight Workshop, highlighting a specific topic grounded in the eight Essential Elements, and directly related to your teaching! (Replays included for Members)


  • Access to your program's strategic framework and operating manual, The Choir Program Blueprint.  The Blueprint includes the 8 Essential Elements framework, an interactive Program Blueprint Self-Assessment Tool, eight video Core Lessons (one per Element), and a 30-day quick-start plan. Not a course, not a book — a working reference that serves as the success path for your choir program that you can turn to throughout the year.


  • Unlimited access to the Foundations Resource Library -- our vault of previous workshops, as well as digital teaching and classroom resources, all organized by their primary Essential Element.  Find what you need, when you need it!


Here's What Your Year Inside the Membership Looks Like

Every month of the CDC Membership tackles a specific theme aligned to the 8 Essential Elements — with the Toolkit deepening one dimension of your program at a time, and the Spotlight Workshop tackling a specific craft topic. Here's your full year:


  • August — Laying the Foundation. Set the systems, routines, and rituals that carry your entire year. 
  • September — From Rehearsal to Performance. Master the rehearsal process before your first concert. 
  • October — Crafting Your Choir Culture. Build the culture that combats the mid-fall engagement dip. 
  • November — Getting the Sound You Want. Deep work on vocal technique and ensemble tone. 
  • December — Getting the Most Out of Your Concerts. Turn performances into program growth. 
  • January — New Year, New Path. A mid-year reset. Evaluate. Chart the second half.
  • February — Developing and Maintaining the Pipeline. Recruiting AND retention strategies. 
  • March — Looking Ahead to Our Future Program. Auditions, next year's ensembles, student experience. 
  • April — Repertoire as a Tool for Program Growth. Choose music that grows singers, audiences, and enrollment. 
  • May — Finishing on a High Note. Last 30 Days. Close the year with intentionality — then set up next year.


Whether you join in August or February, you get access to every month's Toolkit — past and future — organized by Essential Element in the Foundations Library. It's always a good time to jump in, and the framework meets you where you are.

The Person Behind This Membership..
Hi, I'm Matt!
I help choir directors to build thriving and successful choir programs while reducing the stress and overwhelm. I'm right in the trenches with you, offering support and creating practical resources and systems that you can immediately implement into your teaching! 

Over the years, I realized teaching does not have to mean working the longest hours and burning out--it's about working smarter, not harder.  That means creating resources, repeatable systems and processes that I can use again and again, saving tons of time, while truly embodying a "process over product" mindset that focuses on the growth of my singers, while allowing me to have more time for myself and my family. 

I'm passionate about helping other choir directors do the same thing! That's why I have created The Choir Director Corner Community Membership--to get you started in achieving your goals and creating your ideal choir program.

Here's what my students are saying!
