It is not enough to speak, but to speak true.

A Midsummer Night's Dream

Voice work is rewarding as it demands that you develop the self awareness necessary for acting, for creating, for being authentic.

The Rooted Voice work I do helps you identify and release the tension that prevents you from fully connecting to your core, the place from which you create, from which you act.  

Your connection to your words is what gives them life. Vocal technique is your grounding. Breath is the root of your vocal technique.

My style incorporates elements handed to me by my Linklater voice and speech mentor, Claudia Anderson (DePaul University) and elements of Speech Training from Cicely Berry and Arthur Lessac. Newer to Voice Training is the way I incorporate knowledge of the chakra system and power centers in your body.

I am a very intuitive coach, while I am listening to you work I hear more than just your voice. This is very individual work, vocal training, just like acting, and I honor your individuality. I find the smallest adjustments that lead you to the largest discoveries. I help you clear interior obstacles that show up as exterior issues in your voice or in your acting.

I can help you with vocal technique, vocal production, articulation, dialect, audition and performance warm-up, vocal health and maintenance. Should you need it, I can refer you to speech pathologists.
