About Ari
Founder of Ari’s Voice Studio, Ariadne Mahadeo is a singer and songwriter based in the Boston area. She started her music education in the Cranford, NJ school system in choir and orchestra and taking private piano lessons starting at age 6 and teaching herself guitar starting ate age 13. In high school she was in Concert Choir, ever-competitive Madrigals Choir, and started taking Classical Voice lessons in her Sophomore year to further develop her skill. When considering colleges, Ariadne turned her attention towards learning Contemporary Voice at Berklee College of Music.
Now, Ariadne has a Bachelor of Music in Professional Music — with concentrations in Performance and Contemporary Writing & Production — and a Minor in Teaching Contemporary Voice. She has performed at the Berklee Performance Center, The Lilypad, City Winery, The Burren, The Garrison, and more popular Boston venues. She sings mostly R&B, Pop, Rock, Neo-Soul, and Folk music, but has a passion for all genres and what they can teach the singer. Ariadne released her debut single “Lost at Sea” on all streaming platforms in 2025 with an EP on the way.
Ari started teaching two years into college. While offering her expertise to friends and family, she grew interested in teaching private lessons professionally. She took “The Private Studio Teacher” a course where she taught lessons for observation from the class, and learned more about how to run the business side of a private studio. She then decided to pursue a Minor in Teaching Contemporary Voice, taking all the Vocal Pedagogy classes Berklee had to offer. Ever since she started she has had a burning passion for teaching, helping each student to find and develop their unique voice.
My Mission /Philosophy
My goals in teaching voice are to help musicians understand their instrument, be empowered with new skills/techniques, and inspired to improve and love their unique musical voice. I believe music is one of the deepest forms of human expression—a space where individuality and shared experience coexist without bounds. I aim to help my students see music not simply as a skill to master, but as a lifelong practice of self-discovery, communication, and connection.
