"The Estill Model and certification program has given me the gift of vocal mastery. The mystery of the human voice and how it works is no longer unknown and I can be confident that the advice and instruction I give my vocal clients is of the highest quality.  

​

I was first introduced to Estill in University in 1991 but it was in 2001 that I commenced my study in the Estill Model. It has had a profound impact on my life and partnered with me throughout my life as a professional vocalist, singing teacher and music educator. Over the past 20 years I have seen the model become more refined and incorporate  current science, research and tools to ensure it remains at the forefront of voice science and its application around the world.   

I feel incredibly privileged to be apart of this model. It truly is a comprehensive training system with an internationally recognised gold standard certification program. In short, you need to know your stuff to be an Estill Master Trainer ! The training is rigorous and detailed and ensures that the people who teach you are masters of their own instrument and qualified to help you master yours."

 "I first discovered the 'magic' of Estill Voice Training in 2009 whilst studying music full time and acquiring a vocal injury. The realisation that there may be a possibility of not being able to sing freely again was devastating. As a result of the injury, I attended voice therapy and my speech therapist at the time used Estill inspired remediation techniques and I was amazing by this profound voice work. My voice had never felt better!

Curious to know more, I attended my first Level 1 & 2 Estill course with Helen Tiller & Naomi Eyers and since that day my singing and vocal coaching have never been the same. They say once you work with Estill you can never go back and that has been my truth. What I quickly learnt was that Estill Voice Training was not magic at all but rather a unique voice model based on scientific and anatomical evidence based research led by singer and voice scientist, Jo Estill and the model required dedication to obtain vocal mastery. The independent control of vocal structures was something that resonated with me - I had finally found  a clear pathway to obtaining my vocal goals. and that of my clients. The work has enabled me to grow my own artistry.

Working with Estill Voice Training for over 10 years has a given me the gift of confidence in, what I refer to as 'vocal aural training'; mastery of being able to know what others are doing and how singers create thier sound. I am confident that the coaching I provide to my singers is of the highest quality. It has also given me the tools to monitor vocal health with clients.

​

I am currently in the process of gaining my Master Trainer certification and I have loved every moment of working with this voice model, both with my own voice and with my clients. It is truly a game changer and work that I hold very close to my heart. It has also inspired me to move into voice therapy for singers and performers. 

I am very proud to be a part of the Estill Voice International community."
