Servin’ up voice coaching in halifax, NS for professional and hobby singers.

Vocal Warrior!
Welcome to the party,

If you’ve found your way here then here’s a giant, warm, welcome to your next-level of vocal mastery! 

My custom private voice coaching packages are tailored to meet your goals and support you in building both the technical singing and performance skills, and the confidence to release your authentic musical soul.

These aren’t your mother’s voice lessons. 

As in, you’re about to dive head first into the deep end--where vocal artistry meets unwavering confidence and becomes unshakeable vocal power.

   Lemme tell ya...

How do we do it?

Oooohhh the juicy stuff, where we take the music, the voice, the technical skill and get you feeling like a star like full-body owning it.

With my signature #radicalvoicelove practices we’ll work through voice and body connection, performance anxiety and nervous system regulation.

ALL of this comes together to take you to new heights in your singing and your life. 

Confidence Coaching

Here’s where we work on that stage presence, (whether “the stage” means having a huge audience or sharing your voice to a lucky few).

We’ll work on expression and emotion, you’ll get expert performance coaching, and--for singers with professional aspirations--music career consulting. 

Artistry & Performance

two

The foundational skills for every singer or aspiring singer.

From breath control and management to vocal hygiene and health all the way up to getting you to free and liberated singing.

This is the technical work that gets you belting like Mariah or crooning like Sinatra. 

Vocal Technique

Here's what that looks like:

With every technical voice coaching package you get the Warrior Coaching Method

Time to access your WARRIOR voice. It’s there already, we’re just removing some things in the way of it breaking free and adding in the tools you need to truly raise your voice.

This coaching is my most exclusive, because you get regular, private access to me and a customized plan to increase your vocal mastery--whether you’re looking to jump on stage for the first time OR you want to take your stage and career performance up a notch (or 100 notches).

Your voice is worthy (so freaking worthy) of being heard and celebrated, and--if you’re not sure you believe me--then Warrior Voice Coaching is exactly what you need.

Here’s a little bit about your Voice Coach, Elise:

- Jessie Brown, singer songwriter
and voice coach

"Working with Elise has been an awakening of spirit.
She helped me get the voice back I thought I had lost.

- Wendy jeans, singer songwriter

"Elise's voice coaching is about WAY more than just singing. It's helped me get my life back!"

- Maddy Thompson, Singer/Songwriter

“I’ve been voice coaching with Elise for years now, and since I started, not only has my vocal ability improved a ton, but my self confidence has, too.

Elise is so sweet, and allows me to feel safe while I navigate my growing voice! Voice coaching has seriously been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.”

So soo glad you asked! I’m a trained singer and voice coach who’s worked with 1000s of vocalists to increase their skill, confidence and fear of showing up.

The thing that’s usually in need of a boost for my clients? Confidence! Not like affirmations in the mirror confidence. The kind that is felt physically, head to foot. The kind that extends beyond stage presence to the rest of your life--that sort of confidence.

This is more or less the origin of the Warrior Voice Coaching method, and it’s what I bring to every client interaction. 

Do you have single-session packages available?

I don’t have professional ambitions with my singing--can I still benefit from coaching with you?

Ok, I get the technical voice training but what’s all this about authentic expression and confidence?

How is coaching delivered?

Questions? No problem. I got answers:

No problem.
I got answers:

I have an international clientele and mostly work with online private voice coaching clients via ZOOM*. I have very limited availability for in person sessions in my Halifax studio ~ please reach out on the contact page HERE for in person availability.

All group workshops are delivered online via ZOOM.  

* A note about online sessions: There isn't much difference between online and in person voice coaching. I have GREAT tech and my clients say it sounds like I'm in the room with them! All you need is good wifi and a device (like a laptop or tablet) with headphones. An external microphone is helpful but not necessary.

ABSOLUTELY. I work with both hobby singers (who want to do more than sing alone in the car) and professional artists.

While I prefer to work with clients on an ongoing basis, single session lessons are available as an opportunity to see if we are aligned as coach/client. You can reach out to book a single session via this application form

Otherwise, 1:1 voice coaching with me is available through 1:1 VIP Warrior Voice Coaching at a minimum of 8 sessions.

I’d love to talk to you about it.

If you’re unsure about which of my offers is right for you--let me know. 

You’re about to join a vocal movement!
