Ivy’s gifts as a vocal coach enhance her students’/clients’ abilities and talents. She loves to share her passion and experiences. She sees her role as a mentor, vocal producer, and artist developer to enable others to achieve success and freedom of expression. Ivy helps her students/clients to enhance their gifts, find their ‘authentic voice,’ and build up their confidence to step out of their comfort zone. She offers her students/clients invaluable guidance to be authentic performers, whether on an amateur or professional stage. Ivy can coach various singing genres, including jazz, opera, soul, R&B, pop, hip-hop, country, and gospel.
Initially, she takes her students back to the basic skills of warming-up, breathing, expanding vocal range/octave, and training the ear to sing in tune. The student gets a clear understanding of the rules that are essential to the development of any singer. Each student starts with a blank canvas and is taught to sing as if they are painting a picture. They are then trained to perform by bringing the lyrics to life as an actor. Ivy’s coaching approach means that she can intuitively connect with her students/clients and make it easy for them to follow her direction.
Artist development is an essential aspect of Ivy’s work, and she prepares students to work with record labels, managers, and producers. Her vast experience in the music industry means that she can advise students/clients on a professional level how to cope with being in the industry, life pressures, and manage their emotions while performing.
She loves her experiences of singing, performing, and lives out her dream by inspiring and helping others walk into their purpose.
