How does it work?
Through analysing the voice and speech of an individual, the process of identifying blocks to effective communication is straightforward. We then work together; using tried and tested techniques, to replace bad habits with good techniques. These techniques act as a framework for the natural voice to be heard. This is the best way to work as the unique voice of the individual is released and empowered. You will still sound like you – just a more powerful, clear and confident version of you!
“There is no such thing as a bad voice; there is just a voice with blocks in it.” – Patsy Rodenburg, Voice and Speech Coach, Guidhall School of Music and Drama.
Time
Working with the voice is an organic process; the most effective means to improve it is to work over time. Ideally, I like to meet with clients/students for 45-60 minutes on a weekly basis for 6 to 12 weeks. This provides the opportunity to take away the techniques explored and practised in the sessions and then integrate it into communication over the coming week. However, recognising the need for flexibility I do work with individuals around their timetable and requirements. Processing change takes time. Any compromise on this can lead to a compromise of the outcome.
