Background

14 years experience

2010 2024

Julie trains voices all over the World using a technique called “Modern Vocal Training” which involves a series of tailored vocal exercises. Through repetition and then subsequent practice, this technique will enable a singer to find a healthy balance between the muscles involved in phonation, airflow and resonance. The result, a perfectly functioning voice which is ready for the singer to unleash heaps of emotion, dynamics and style!

Her whole philosophy is to help everyone she works with find their own true authentic voice and become the singer, performer and artist they were born to be.

Having been trained within world-class teaching organisations and mentored by David Grant for over ten years, Julie’s knowledge and experience of singing and performing, along with her ability to effectively develop and motivate her students through the music industry is an example of being among the UK’s most dynamic and successful vocal coaches.

Julie has nurtured all of her students into the industry from a young age by showcasing talent in national and local competitions and charity events. More than a dozen of her students have now competed on the main UK TV talent competitions, generating over 40 million combined views of their performances online.

Technique and Vocal Health

Singers will experience improved control, tone, clarity, range, pitch accuracy and a smoother transition across any of those dreaded breaks and weaker areas throughout all registers.

The result, a perfectly functioning voice which is ready for the singer to unleash heaps of emotion, dynamics and style!

Performance and Delivery

Developing a strong vocal technique should be the foundation for every serious singer. Simply having a powerful and impressive voice across all ranges and being “able to sing the phonebook” however, is not enough to make a lasting impression with an audience or a panel of judges. Anyone watching some of the singing shows over the years will have heard, “your voice is amazing however I just didn’t see any connection to the song.” This can be the kiss of death to even the best singers.

At Vocal Ovation we will help you pick the right songs for you and your style or work with your own originals. We'll show you ways to dive deeper into their meaning and connect to them emotionally so that your performance is so personal and authentic. The outcome; a brand new feeling for you and an audience reaction you’ve never fully experienced before!

Confidence and Self Belief

A big part of the coaching at Vocal Ovation is that you’ll be working with a former professional singer who knows what it’s like to step up onstage and perform to an audience.

Now as a professional and experienced coach, their sole purpose is to help you become better and more in control.
During lessons, no one is judging you, you'll get as many chances as you need and as much constructive feedback as it takes to get you over whatever vocal or performance issues you may be having.

Singing should be enjoyable so it’s vital that you feel comfortable and confident in your ability and never feel out of your depth.
