“I love Scott’s work because it is anatomically based and psychologically astute. It is a psycho-physical approach that demands the student’s full commitment to looking at their habitual body with open eyes. I have seen the results. Change will happen; open body, open voice, open heart. I highly recommend this method of training.”

“Studying with Scott was like no other class, with the rare opportunity to deconstruct verbal and non-verbal language into the elements of what it actually is to listen, hear, digest, feel, impulse, react, and, ultimately, to speak. Regardless of where—onstage, onscreen, or in my daily life—the mVm work provided me the tools, vocabulary, and understanding of what it truly means to communicate and how.”

“Practicing mVm weekly, I've noticed a new ease, confidence, and curiosity to the way I approach my teaching--and by extension my auditions, rehearsals, and performances. Beyond the confidence and direct skill set that the mVm Teacher Cert program provides me, the philosophy and self reflective nature of the program has helped me clarify my own teaching philosophy and recognize the unique benefit that I can bring to my students.”

Ali Evarts

Actor, Certified mVm Teacher

“Though I have been working successfully as a presenter and speaker, I started working with Scott to refine and up my speaking game. Scott taught me new presentation techniques that have been invaluable, including a short warm-up that I use unfailingly before every presentation and it has had a dramatic impact on my delivery. Scott is a miracle worker!!”

“mVm is the most human and pragmatic approach to the voice, body, brain, memory and voice I have ever encountered. As an actor it has given me easy and applicable tools that always bring me back to the present and allow me to be a human being experiencing rather than an actor acting. As a teacher it has given me freedom from obligation, and opened me to my purpose, to opportunity, possibility, curiosity. By becoming more myself in the teaching space, I am finally able to be there for my students in the ways that they need me to be.”

Nick Curnow

Actor, Certified mVm Teacher

“I sought out Scott ten years after initially working with him when I had hit a wall with my work. I remembered his unique approach and the way he was able to lead people to truly genuine expression. The private coachings we had, and the technique he has developed, have revolutionized my approach completely.”

Actor – ABC’s Agent Carter, Dollhouse, Avengers

"The presence training was very helpful in getting back to the basics of being a human being—both alive and present. It taught me so much about my body and my own breath, capacity for breath (or lack thereof) and gave me tools to strengthen my breath and my breath capacity. Working on the breath and living in my body brought depth to my life and my work. I very much enjoyed the modules, and found all of it to be valuable, fun and useful. It led me to pursue even further ways to expand my awareness of my breath and my capabilities from the standpoint of breath.”

Actor - mVm Presence Training Subscriber

“Presence Training’s power rests in attending to one’s ease and presence. It takes the excess tension, strain and muscling that’s inherent in our understanding ‘training,’ ‘concentration’ and ‘success,’ by redirecting our attention to what’s happening in one’s body now. No judgment, just awareness with an eye toward understanding.”

“I apply mVm teachings in every show I do. I use an mVm warm up before rehearsals and all performances. mVm has given me tools that allow me to connect more deeply to myself and to the audience. mVm has opened my mind to many new ideas, and helped me find ease and authenticity in my voice and my acting.”

“[I learned] how to trust my innate charisma and channel my passion for maximum impact. Small notations and adjustments—practiced and perfected—have already made a huge difference in the way I approach every aspect of my job and even my personal life as I engage with those around me.”

“I had my first gig after school—just a day player spot on a show—and I used everything you taught me to prepare. All of the training under duress stuff you taught is insanely valuable, because it’s so insanely distracting on set. Anyway, all of this is to say THANK YOU. I have much to learn but I am so grateful for the tools you introduced me to.”

Jared Canfield

Actor

“Having studied many different voice techniques, mVm is the first one to give me the tools to measurably support my breath and my voice, both literally and figuratively. It’s helped me approach acting and speaking with ease and breath instead of tension and muscularity. I’ve gained confidence, technique, and presence as an mVm practitioner. So thankful for the skills I’ve gained as an actor, a speaker, and voice educator!”
