You cannot create a powerful sound if you don’t feel powerful.

And yet that’s what 99% of singers try to do (my younger self included).

We try to push, wrangle, control and “perfect technique” our way to a compelling sound and feel defeated when it falls flat.

Your body, mind and nervous system have to all be on board and alive to unleash that strong, magnetic sound you’ve been craving.

THAT’S why you can’t belt… YET.

You’re invited to Powerhouse.

8 weeks to transform the way you approach belting

not just arming you with human-centred efficient technique but by amplifying your confidence, your conviction and your willingness to be seen.

Sounds a little exhilarating and a little terrifying huh?

"Thanks to you and your Powerhouse course, I am able to belt high notes like never before, and without that pesky heady, operatic sound!
You and your courses have contributed such a positive boost in my healing process. The confidence I have gained by being able to belt out {my original rock song} is all thanks to you and your courses.
Thanks for everything you do to help people realize their full potential and reach for their dreams! You are making a difference!"

"This is not just a singing course, this is an experience that helped me grow as a person in a holistic way. Kim is the most amazing and supportive coach.

My mind set completely changed, I had never thought of myself as a powerful singer, I was scared of using my voice in powerful ways, I have never seen myself as a person with the capacity to become a powerful person.

I could feel shifts in the way my body worked in order to play my instrument without the need to use strain and the biggest effort came from my brain.

I feel now that I have so much room and time to grow as a singer and teacher."

Yes this means you’ll be able to let those money notes freely rip through you like a thunderstorm

but the reason I created this program is because of the ripple effects that come with empowering yourself and your voice.

When that wall of sound is flying out of you without tension or strain, you feel limitless.

Powerful.

You stand a little taller.

You tell people “I’m a singer” with more conviction.

The possibility of judgement, criticism or rejection no longer paralyses you.

You’re able to express your needs and your boundaries more effectively.

You learn what it feels like to build self-trust and have your own back.

Yes you can genuinely express emotion, no matter the intensity.

Yes you can captivate a room without a microphone.

Yes you can unleash a full, explosive sound without worrying if you’ll have any voice left the next day.

But you also know a free-flowing goosebump-giving wail is just the beginning.

Does this gives you all the good tingles?

A little about my journey with belting

Ever since I was a kid, I’ve been enamoured with powerhouse singers.

I’d play Celine Dion tapes on repeat, giving it my best shot with my tiny little lungs.

The first time I heard Whitney Houston, my eyes nearly bugged out of my head.

I couldn’t wait until I was older so I could create these electric, bold, commanding colours with my voice.

Unfortunately even after over a decade of private lessons, I would lose my voice after musical theatre performances and gigs with the Motown band I fronted.

I’d sing a 3 hour rock and pop set and barely croak my way through the last few songs. It was mortifying.

It took me years and nearly a dozen different teachers to begin to be able to belt freely. Picking up techniques and exercises that nudged it in a positive direction.

But it was only when I let go of the dogma and the attachment to “a right way” that I started to find my own vocabulary and feeling for what worked.

I started to uncover what felt more natural. What felt like an authentic expression. And how it ahould FEEL in my body.

I began to TRUST my voice and be in relationship with my emotions. THAT was where the magic lived.

And here's a side-by-side comparison (from 2020) so you can hear how my voice evolved.

What you’ll learn

How “support” needs to feel different when you’re adding power
How to take a belt up higher without strain kicking in
How to help yourself to feel safer when being visible and vulnerable
How to allow the sound to resonate “forward” or “in the mask” without forcing it there or sounding too nasal
How to give your body directions that actually work to create the sound you want
How to create different tone colours for different styles
How to support yourself when nerves come into play
How to engage other muscles in the body to take the vocal load from your throat
What really brings a belt to life (hint: it’s not impeccable technique).

and much more, but I know you don’t have all day…

FAQs

When does it start and when are the classes? The date for the July/August 2023 round is yet to be set but the classes will alternate between Saturdays in my morning (Fridays evenings US/Canada) and Saturdays in my afternoon (Saturdays mornings UK/Europe).

Can I do this program if I’m an absolute beginner?

You will get all the technique training that you’ll need for belting but I always advise that ideally it’s best if singers have explored how to sing efficiently first before exploring belting/power.

How much time will I need to set aside to practice?

This program is for those who are READY, so it will require your devotion.

In saying that, I’m a big believer in short, laser-focused, more-bang-for-your-buck practice sessions and exercises. You can get a lot done in 15-20 minutes.

How often? The more regular you can be, the better, but if you can devote yourself to that short burst every second day that’d be fabulous.

How is this different from other singing programs?

Because it’s not focused solely on technique, it brings your mind and your emotions into the picture. You’re a complete human being and your body is your instrument, it needs to be treated as such.

The technique elements are taught with multiple options and human-centred language. No over-the-top scientific jargon here. You’ll know what you’re doing and how it’s meant to feel.

The embodiment practices reconnect you with your body, help you to build safety with your emotions and sensations and connect you to a felt sense of power.
