What are sessions like with Stefan?
Sessions are tailored to your own personal development goals, so the actual content of the sessions depends on you.
The session may involve a vocal warm-up if you wish, though you may choose to do this beforehand so that you and Stefan can dive straight into working on the issue at hand. This may be, for example, a song, pronunciation, phrasing, specific muscle training or solving a niggling vocal issue.
How Estill Voice Training can help you
Estill Voice Training (EVT) is a scientific, evidence-based system for vocal development. It is a life-changing approach that can help you become a stronger and more emotional performer by giving you effective tools to improve your craft.
Whether you are a singer/songwriter using a microphone or a classical singer performing acoustically the EVT figures for voice add to your artistry and provide practical solutions to many vocal issues.
Simple everyday sounds are used to identify structures in the larynx and in the vocal tract (throat, mouth and nose). These are then trained in detail to give conscious, predictable and reliable control of your voice. Knowing how to produce exactly the sound you want gives you freedom and also helps to ease anxiety around performing.
