Speaking Voice Lessons in Minneapolis. Amazing Teachers.

Do you talk in front of large groups? Do you speak on the phone for long periods and need to be as effective as you can without hurting the voice. Let's work on that.

Speech lessons are beneficial for many reasons. Perhaps you are getting ready for an interview, or your voice is frequently hoarse, maybe you desire your voice to sound different or perhaps you are a voice over artist looking to add a dialect or wanting to work on inflections. Speaking voice lessons give techniques on how to properly use the voice in a healthy way on a daily basis. If you are interested in the anatomy of the voice, I am more than happy to teach you that as well.

I help speakers develop powerful, authentic voices by combining knowledge of their instrument, vocal health practices and helping them develop the technique to easily sustain their sound. Together, we'll create your personalized 'toolkit' of exercises designed to promote proper posture, ease of breath support and help your voice attain the best speaking resonance.

We will learn how to add musicality to the voice, how to control dynamics and best practices for using intonation to tell the story, or give a presentation.

For 20 years I've assisted in developing singers, public speakers and voice over artists to access their authentic voice with more ease, accompanied by a personal resume spanning a lifetime of performing. My training includes 12 years of one-on-one training in apprenticeship for the field.

This is NOT your average coaching session! This is for those who are ready to finally overcome the world’s #1 fear:
PUBLIC PERFORMANCE.
Get ready to present yourself, business, product or service with confidence, personality and effectiveness.

My lighthearted and humorous approach to seemingly stressful situations, especially in the public performance sector, have made me a highly sought-after coach for one-on-one and group training.

Our ultimate goal as a singer and speaker is communication, and developing a healthy technique enables us to express freely! Whether you're singing on the stage professionally, or in front of friends and family, the goal is still the same- to sing your very best- and the tools we will build together will last a lifetime! Learn the technical skills that will help you express onstage as an actor and singer!

Public speaking is an important skill for many professions. But beyond that, being able to use a speaking voice that can portray your intention and personality is important in our everyday lives. With Speaking Voice lessons you'll learn techniques to help you use your voice healthfully in any way that you choose. Learn methods to control your vocal pitch (higher or lower voice), register (head voice, chest voice etc.), timbre (tone quality), volume, and even diction (accent reduction, vocal placement). Learn to speak more clearly, and effectively communicate your message in any situation.
