I believe that the voice work gives students the possibility to discover their authentic voices. In connecting the body and the voice, I feel that a self-awareness develops that gives life a fuller expression. An awareness of self gives a better awareness of others and fosters relationships of a profound nature.

I love Alfred Wolfsohn’s definition of the voice as the 'muscle of the soul', because it recognizes how intimately linked our voices are to our emotions and our deepest being. In the dynamic exploration of different qualities and registers of our voice, bringing us to sounds and feelings not usually touched by more conventional singing techniques, we become aware that we are exploring more than just our voices. As one’s voice grows richer and fuller so does the person behind the voice. There is a flow and an openness that allows for more expressivity and a greater ability to connect with others. I like to bring out the actor in everyone by calling upon archetypal characters and situations that require a direct, physical engagement of body, voice and imagination. It is a playful approach to voice teaching that encourages the student to forget about technique and allows him or her to tap into the immense source of creativity and spontaneous communicability that we all possess.
