Michaela

I am a Sustained Independent Project Supervisor at The Royal School of Speech and Drama. I am also a Voice/Movement Coach who taught at the Met Film School at Ealing Studios and The Actors Centre in the West End. I am a Singing Coach who collaborated with Cherry Pie Music, Wac Arts, Stella Mann College of Performing Arts and Solent University in addition to running my private studio practice.

​

I apply various paths to access the human voice. This approach is based on research studies and my professional and personal experiences. I currently teach online and face-to-face in London where I also offer coaching/mentoring sessions.

​

I believe that researchers shape the future. Therefore, I earned a Master’s degree with distinction in Voice Pedagogy/Research at the University of Wales Trinity Saint David/Voice Study Centre. One of my research studies was published by Routledge in the peer-reviewed journal Voice and Speech Review and can be found here. I have trained with Catherine Fitzmaurice and finished my Certification as an Associate Teacher of Fitzmaurice Voicework® at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama. I am a Level III certified teacher of Somatic Voicework™. I also studied vocal arrangement, conducting, and vocal painting at the Royal Academy of Music in Denmark. I am a qualified yoga teacher (RYT® 500).

My projects include Circle Singing London which explores vocal improvisation; To Move with the Voice which addresses the connection between the body and the voice; a vocal group called The Voice Energy project; and Holistic Vocal Coaching.

​​

In addition, I experienced a broad range of singing/voice/movement techniques including:

Alexander technique, The Accent Method, The Roy Hart Theatre, Serge Wilfart®- Pneumaphonie®, Linklater Voice, The Grotowski Institute, Body-Mind Centering®, Feldenkrais Method®, The Roll Model® Method, Estill Voice Training™, Somatic Voicework™ - The LoVetri Method.

​

I have run workshops in the UK, the Czech Republic and Spain (at the Institut del Teatre de Barcelona).

​

Now, based on my professional experience and qualifications, I am fulfilling my desire to share my passion for voice and support others to experience the power of self-expression through voicework.
