Meet Joy-- Holistic Vocal Coach

I am a vocal technician and professional performer with a BMus in vocal performance, postgraduate studies in Opera Performance and an MA in Community music. For over 25 years I have been teaching individual and group voice from children to seniors, from absolute beginners to professionals. The voice is an internal instrument with the entire body as its case. As a holistic vocal coach, I work with the complete vocalist-- body mind, voice and everything that is attached. In addition to vocal technique for singers and speakers, I am a yoga and strength & balance  instructor as well as an 8 to Great certified life coach. I specialize in helping vocalists build solid vocal techniques and help solve their challenges. 

My passion for vocal "problem-solving"  has led me to my current MA studies in Vocal Pedagogy at the Voice Study Centre and the University of Essex. I feel  that the mental training for vocal performance  often gets the least attention in traditional voice studios I am conduction the "Positive Prime Project"  as part of my MA studies and my quest to find new solutions for performance anxiety which affects the majority of vocalists.
