Coaching/Workshops

Coaching

I’ve been coaching since 1994, when I was the choreographer for Vancouver’s internationally renowned Lion’s Gate Chorus. My theatre background and experience teaching voice have given me the expertise to be a well-rounded performance coach. From effective, efficient warm-ups to vocal polish to movement and expressive performance, I have great success in getting groups to sing better, move better and connect more deeply to the music and their audiences.

Workshops

My vocal workshops involve deep release work to prime the body and voice for connected, truthful expression. I approach vocal release through the Alexander Technique, the Linklater (natural voice) Method, and other forms of body movement re-education gleaned from my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance. Greater vocal freedom is achieved by first releasing the body and connecting with the breath; free emotional expression follows the same path of release and connection.

Free Body, Free Voice is a 90 minute class featuring deep physical release and tension-releasing vocalizations, and the Love Your Voice Masterclass builds on it by offering one-on-one coaching to individuals while other participants observe.
