[The tutor] is an amazing tutor! She has so much passion, energy, humour and experience. The lessons are split into two parts - first half is group physical exercises (you get a manual too) e.g. breathing, relaxation, singing, stretching etc etc and the second half is where we typically do individual performances (nothing scary or difficult and no lines to learn (unless you want to)) and we get individual feedback - [the tutor] video tapes each of us and gives us feedback via email! The last two sessions are where you can work on 1-2 audition pieces whether your still using a script or off script. So its great for all actors/speakers/performers etc

A superb course: the tutor has huge experience and can quickly identify what can be done to improve a vocal performance. Dramatically improved results are a regular occurrence. You will also be filmed and e-mailed further notes. In addition you will come away with a unique vocal workout that draws on many sources including eastern principles.
The great the thing is that the tutor makes all this accessible and fun. I would strongly recommend this course for anyone wishing to improve their vocal technique and impact

Given the content of course, entailing relaxation techniques to free the voice tool in order to improve its usage, the classroom chosen for the course it is a real hindrance. Too small for any relaxing exercise to be carried out properly adding to the frustration of a class way too big in number. As half of the course time is devoted to relaxing techniques that cant be carried out properly, not possible to stretch on the floor as the classroom is too small T am inclined to request a refund for at least half of the money. Especially because sorting out the relevant space adequate for the course content it would not be difficult. Without mentioning the time we have to waste at beginning and end of lesson to first free the space from tables & chairs and then having to put them back. I am not impressed.
