Vocal Coaching includes vocal coloring/styling and establishing acting as the priority at all times. I specialize in audition preparation, emotional connection to material and overcoming performance anxiety through thought work.
The serious performer should have separate technical voice lessons with a highly trained voice teacher (referrals given on request). When the voice is healthily trained it becomes a playground during coaching sessions to do the work of true performing.
Our goal in coaching sessions is to get “you” out of your way. Much of what holds us back in performing is the dialogue we have with ourselves between our own two ears before, after and during performances. We can eliminate the unhelpful internal monologue and clear ourselves of stage fright, negative self talk, doubt, and over-evaluation.
Your performance will be
accessible,
cast-able
and
thoroughly believable
First coaching?
Come with your prepared audition or performance pieces.
Together we will:
• Cut through your brain chatter – find the thoughts that are holding you back from expressing your full self and create new, believable thoughts that propel your performance forward.
• Find organic motivation – find the “why” of your performance and believe in the importance of your individual offering.
• Elevate ability to express your talent/message in a way that casting directors and audiences can easily access.
• Build your repertoire/audition book with cast-able, go-to performance pieces.
