Beth Williams: From Aversion to Expert Yodeler
First yodel sounds
As a child, Beth Williams had a strong aversion to the sound of yodeling. She recalls telling her mother, “It hurts my ears!” whenever she was encouraged to try yodeling herself. Despite being told she’d make a good yodeler, Beth was adamant in her dislike for the sound.
Embracing Yodeling
Over time, (and thanks to 3 Japanese men who requested she yodel at the Hyatt Regency in Austin, Texas) Beth’s perspective changed. She eventually found a way to embrace yodeling, transforming her initial discomfort into appreciation for the art form.
Becoming a Yodel Teacher
Beth’s journey didn’t end with her personal acceptance of yodeling. After many "How do you Yodel" requests, she has become the “go-to yodel teacher,” helping students from around the globe master the art of yodeling. Her story is an inspiring example of overcoming aversion and finding passion in unexpected places.
What to expect during your Virtual Yodeling Lesson
Beth will teach you the basics of yodeling and help you find your best yodeling voice through vocal warmups, proper breathing, using your legs, feet and core to have more power along with other tricks of the trade! She will help you find the break in your voice and the right key for your voice on various yodeling songs.

MORE ABOUT LESSONS WITH BETH
"You have been such a blessing to Delilah. Your lessons have done wonders for her confidence and her voice has improved so much this school year. She's already talking about coming back next year!"
tEACHING METHOD:
Set up in her one room Pro Tools Recording Studio, Beth teaches a method of passive breathing which enables singing and yodeling without tightening or constricting the throat. She uses a turkey baster as a tool to show students how the air can simply “fall” in so the throat and upper body stays relaxed. She also teaches how to use your feet, legs and lower body for more control and power in your voice.
At their very first lesson, students will learn to yodel a song! Each week thereafter, Beth gives them a new song to practice for the following week. She is also able to record the lesson for those who would like to have a recording to practice with. Beth will also put the songs in the correct key so the student can sing along while they practice.
“The kids have so much fun, they have learned a lot… Beth is so kind and great with the kids! She makes the lessons fun and interesting! We really appreciate her!” Bria Schmalz
"I have realized some absolutely amazing results in my singing since recently being introduced to Beth Williams. I first discovered the many FREE lessons that she so generously offers on her Utube site. I trusted her suggestions and followed the method that she prescribed only to find that her method produced amazing improvements in the quality of my voice. Her tips on breathing made a huge difference in the overall delivery of my singing. In fact, I was so surprised that I felt compelled to reach out to Beth in order to learn more about the private lessons available directly from her, ONE ON ONE, right in my own home. I’m now working with Beth weekly and continue to see consistent improvement as a result of her unique efforts. I am convinced that I have found THE best voice coach in the universe. Check her out!"

“Our choir and worship team was privileged to have Beth come out and work with us for a two-hour vocal training class. Everyone loved her! She is very skilled, has a wonderful personality, very pleasant to work with and really challenged each and every one of us. The skills she taught us were simply invaluable. Our choir and worship team was truly blessed by everything she shared and taught and are looking forward to next time! I highly recommend her to any choir or worship team seeking to better themselves.”
