Integrate Voice, Movement and Dance techniques -


Singers, dancers and actors are often trained from different perspectives, especially as regards the use and management of breath. However, current research suggests that some of those differences might well be put to rest.

My passion, for many years, has been the integration of voice and movement training, so that clients experience - even in singing lessons - the joy of moving and sounding at the same time!

Comments from Clients:

"You brought out sounds I did not know were in me."
Matthew Tomlanovich
Actor/Director/Vocal Consultant
US, UK, Europe

"You have enabled me to find my own voice ... to my own ability ... and your book is next to my night light, because in it I rediscover ideas that take away the inbred fear I had, once I decided to devote my life to the acting process."
Madonna Young-McGee
Actor, Lecturer, Cal State Fullerton

"The audition was wonderful and I almost chickened out. The reason I went was that I stumbled across a small yellow piece of paper on which you had written, "Outstanding!" I was the only male asked to stay at the Equity chorus call, and the casting director had me do both my monologues and my song. Then she asked if I were good with Standard American, reading phonetics, and dialect work. All I could think was, "Thank God for Joan!"
Justin MichaelDuval
Actor, Los Angeles/New York
