The skills honed in a drama school training are ones we all possess, and the desire to improve quality, stamina, and range is what prompts many non-performers to come for voice lessons. Through knowing our voice and understanding how it works, as well as what happens when it doesn’t, we also begin to understand more about ourselves and what drives us forwards in life or holds us back. When we feel passionate about something, for example, or truly connected to what we are saying, our voice can often open up for a moment in spite of the tensions that might habitually be holding it in place. We recognise the sense of vocal freedom we may have found momentarily, and want to retain it.
As our voice becomes freer and stronger, we also become freer and stronger as people and take ownership of our voice. Recovering a voice that is strong, clear, and resonant, as well as naturally responsive to our thoughts and ideas, can have an enormously transformative effect on our well-being as well as the way we interact and communicate.
