ONE VOICE 1st Intensive
June 20 - 24, 2022
Online or Hybrid



Six hours of class each day, work with guest artists,

conversations with practitioners, and unlimited follow-up with course leaders





ONE VOICE is a perspective on training and performance that embraces a range of methodologies. As performers, teachers, coaches and related specialists are individually unique, they ultimately create their own ways of working. Successful completion of two intensives--a year apart--is required for certification as a One Voice Practitioner.

 

 

"You'll learn to unify your skills into a practice that works for YOU!"

Kristen Calgaro, actor, dancer, singer

 

"The course was invaluable to me as a voice teacher working with

dancers, actors and musicians."

Zac Bradford, NY Vocal Coaching Australia, Queensland Conservatorium, Brisbane
