I come as a complete package. Having extensively trained as a singer, actor, musician, director and teacher, my coaching sessions or workshops can be tailored to suit the needs of the individual or the group.

Once my techniques are implemented, singing actors and public speakers will often see an immediate shift in the ease and confidence with which they can sing or deliver text; they find new tonal strength in their voices and feel greater empowerment in their storytelling. Whilst regular coaching sessions and practice will help to embed these skills, benefits can be gained from even one or two sessions as new ideas and tactics are added to existing routines.

What's on offer...

Private classes

Consolidate or strengthen your skill base as you find your unique voice.

Brush up your singing or acting skills, build repertoire, and explore text in a private lesson, offered in person in my Brisbane studio or online. A well-grounded technique creates freedom to focus on the artistry of performance. With extensive experience working in both "legit", contemporary musical theatre, and pop genres, my scientifically grounded teaching style is easy to understand and implement. Individually crafted exercises will develop your voice, release tension, and encourage vocal efficiency.

Tuition can be delivered elsewhere by negotiation. Class lengths range from 30 minutes to an hour, and multiple lesson packages are available. Contact me for availability and prices.

Audition coaching

Be well prepared for all audition eventualities. Bring your repertoire book and learn and polish your essentials, including the song or monologue that shows the best version of the essential you. I can create piano practice tracks and help create the ideal audition cuts.

My dynamic toolkit of multidisciplinary, synergistic techniques will help you find vocal ease, freedom and versatility, providing choices as you inhabit the story and create an engaging atmosphere as you convincingly act through song.

Performance workshops

My interactive workshops are invaluable – whether you are exploring musical theatre material, preparing for secondary or tertiary examinations, or tackling corporate or professional development scenarios. Workshops are tailored for as few as four participants, up to a maximum of 30. These fun-filled interactive sessions incorporate individual moments of exploration as well as group exercises. The content draws upon my SASS toolkit – a mix of tried and tested acting, physical, psychological and singing exercises combined with my original techniques and tactics. At least 90 minutes should be allocated for the workshop component, with additional time added for optional masterclasses.

Each student comes with visual, audio, and kinesthetic strengths and a variety of teaching styles and resources are required to accommodate the array of personalities and skill bases that walk through the studio door.

You may be surprised!

Some techniques and tactics from that sphere can ignite energy and bring some exciting changes to your team. Come and play together, create new corporate connections and build new communication skills. Sessions will be tailor-made to suit individual and corporate needs. Mini-workshops can be as short as 90 minutes up to half and full-day professional and personal development coaching sessions.
