What People Are Saying…

“I feel like I walked away with real, can-be-used in the real world skills. It feels rare in adulthood to learn new skills that you can use every day!”
“One thing I really loved about this course is what a wonderful sense of community there was. I loved how much everyone supported each other. I was just looking for something to help with my voice - the course offered much more than that.”
“I had no expectations, so it was 100% new delights. Towards the end, I had a really big release in my voice -- I felt like I released many years of stored tension. It helped me in 9 billion ways. It helps us find our own authenticity. I think it's very empowering.”
“This class will help you identify unconscious patterns of holding around your breath, and through that awareness, hopefully be more conscious about employing Active Breath and being more present under duress while acting and engaging with the work and the world.”
“This course fascinated me. I am a retired Speech Language Pathologist who loves to sing and has had physical change/challenges over time. The course offers a unique opportunity to non-actors, like myself, to address something I had forgotten to tend to -- my confidence in communicating more effectively.”
“I will never look at my self tapes in the same way ever again. The breathing, the Active Breath can be used to improve and vary my acting. Remembering to breathe will help with relaxation as well.”
“Wonderful teacher and insightful explorations. I absolutely love [mVm]. It is simple and yet revealing. This course strengthens focus, releases tensions in the body under duress and improves your performance work.”
“As we age, we older women tend to 'become invisible' in our interactions with those in the wider world. mVm has the potential to offer an opportunity for older women to retain a bit of personal power as they reclaim their voices and sense of presence.”
