My name is Michèle Voillequé and
I can’t wait to hear you.
Your voice is one of a kind.
No one throughout all of time will ever sound like you because your body is one of a kind. Even if you’re a twin, your voice is unique to you.
If singing or speaking doesn’t feel or sound the way you’d like, we should talk.

When using our voice feels uncomfortable or forced, it’s usually because
we’re either not using the body well,
we’re scared sh*tless,
or both.
The good news is that using the body well is a skill, not a talent.
Emotional self-regulation is a skill, not a talent.
Singing beautifully, speaking effectively –
first and foremost, these are skills, not talents.
You can feel and sound better – even in stressful situations you just need to know how.
This is where I come in – to help you make the best sound you can,
in the healthiest way possible, with the greatest amount of ease.
Whether you’re a total beginner or have been
singing and presenting for years, if you’re thinking,
“I think this could be better,” you’re probably right.
Your voice is a muscle.
Muscles change as they are used.
If you’ve ever tried an exercise program, even for a short period of time, you already know that muscles change as they are used. This is true for the voice, too.
Most common vocal problems – singing out of tune, running out of breath, struggling with high notes, struggling with low notes, talking yourself hoarse – come from having too much tension in some muscles and not enough activation in others.
And many common performance problems – forgetting the words, losing your train of thought, missing your entrances, not being able to breathe – come from feeling (understandably!) emotionally or mentally overwhelmed. Inner strength and emotional resilience are muscles we can build, too.
Your whole self is the instrument.
The voice works best when we’re strong, calm and grounded.
Physical and emotional work are mutually reinforcing.
Work with me proceeds on two tracks:
Building physical skills so that you can make the strongest, clearest, freest sound you can, while at the same time expanding your emotional capacity so that you can perform effectively, even under pressure.
We can do this one-on-one in weekly or bi-weekly sessions, either online or in person, or you can enroll in one of my group programs.
It’s never too late to sound like your truest, strongest, clearest self.
