Vocal technique
Every voice can benefit from effective training. The exercises that I use are specifically designed for individual needs and are aimed at training the various muscles involved in tone production. The voice will develop enormous strength and become more resilient, versatile and flexible. (Training exercises are provided on CD.)
Project-oriented intensive training
Due to scheduled commitments, many artists depend on project-related work. For this reason, my intensive training is developed in such a way that the artist's current musical material is incorporated. Newly acquired technical skills and tricks are actively applied to their own songs. My clients receive comprehensive exercises that are specifically designed for their continued individual practice.

Coaching during studio or live productions
Now more than ever, tight budgets and scheduling stress demand more efficient working methods. As an experienced singer, vocal coach and vocal producer I can help save time and money through effective, results-oriented coaching and support for artists and producers.
Enhancement of vocal and physical performance capabilities
Professional singers are under continuous pressure to make sure their voices are powerful and able to deliver a good performance. This kind of psychological pressure can often lead to vocal fatigue and the so-called "vocal crisis", which is generally not spoken about or addressed. My multi-faceted education enables me to help artists prevent this problem from recurring. Whether it's of a vocal health nature or a problem dealing with finding inner balance, I can offer new and perhaps surprising alternatives to revive the artist's original capabilities.
Discovery and further development of the singer's personality
Individuality and highly recognizable characteristics are expected of all artists. That's why, in the course of my training, I focus on developing and preserving the artist's individual sound. What's more, I intentionally open up room for experimentation so the artist feels free to try new things in order to experience the versatility of their own voice, thus enabling the development of artistic identity and the clear definition of the artist's own sound.
Speaking voice: special training for anybody who works with their voice
Teachers, presenters, lawyers, consultants and anyone who relies on their voice for professional reasons have to deal with enormous vocal strain. To maintain vocal health and to prevent vocal impairment or even damage, I have developed a compact training program that can be easily incorporated into everyday life.

"Find Your Voice"- Seminars and Workshops
My training program for the speaking voice led me to create the concept for the seminar dealing with this topic - also recommended for choirs and choir directors.

Coaching for musicians, bands and ensembles
Instrumentalists often have to contend with strained tendons and joints. By incorporating my knowledge of terlusollogy into my training, I help musicians achieve optimal posture, free flowing movement and harmonious breathing. That´s why I also work successfully with instrumentalists, bands and ensembles. This entails observing and analyzing how a musician plays. When necessary, I correct counter-productive habits so that in the future they can prevent unnecessary strain while playing their instruments.
Project-oriented intensive training
A current appraisal and analysis of the voice’s condition provides the basis for the individually designed content of my project-oriented intensive training. Of course, an artist’s own individual expectations are also taken into account so that the entire training is jointly planned and discussed with regards to intentions and goals.
Basically, the training is built on two pillars: the finishing touches on vocal technique and the comprehensive musical and interpretive work with the artist’s own material.
My expert consultation can also include a joint analysis of existing DVD, video or audio recordings. The entire learning process is rounded-off by optimizing individual working methods. During the course of the training, I individually tailor training and practice material to my clients’ needs, including a CD.
And in preparation for events or situations that could put additional pressure on the voice, special training can also be provided.
Speaking voice: special training for anybody who works with their voice
The training program is especially geared towards dealing with strain on the voice and performance demands. Articulation, breathing, resonance spaces, initiating tones and correct vocal practice are all learned as part of healthy voice-use strategies. The required tonus is established and by focusing on the corresponding connection between body and mind, tension release and regeneration are achieved.
The wide range of exercises offers a variety of combinations so that the daily training routine remains varied and diversified even over a longer period of time.
