Neuro-Vocal for Popular Styles is the key achieving a healthy, authentic sound for all microphone-based genres and contemporary music-theater.

About Meredith
The decision to improve your singing is not a decision made lightly. 

Your private music school will benefit from hosting a Neuro-Vocal Method Seminar & Masterclass. How? Click here!

You'll find that this method is an extremely healthy way to sing; so healthy, in fact, that Neuro-Vocal Method can be applied for rapid healing of vocal damage.

Neuro-Vocal is an approach that will get singers the results they want.

In utilizing new knowledge of brain function,

Neuro-Vocal for Popular Styles exploits the innate tendencies of the brain - both to steer changes in singing and to be guided by changes as they occur.

While a six-hour seminar and masterclass cannot take the place of ongoing lessons, or an indepth grasp of the pedagogy of the method, it is a powerful place to start. Many participants have gained enough understanding of the principles of the method to move forward in their own journey to a healthy, CCM vocal sound.

​

Attendees to the Neuro-Vocal  Seminar & Masterclass can register as either participants or auditors.

 

Thank you for such a fun workshop Saturday!  I really enjoyed - and learned from - watching you witness, diagnose, and provide an RX for each singer's particular needs. I really appreciated your humor throughout, which kept us laughing and kept your messaging on a lovely level. It's good to know hacks for the voice and I am going to spend some good tea-time with your book.

Introduction to NVM

This online class is short,  cheap,  interesting,  fun, and designed for the voice teacher who wants to take a gander at this ground-breaking method.

You may have heard by now about Neuro-Vocal Method, the breakthrough voice teaching method based on brain science.  You may have read the book Money Notes: How to Sing High, Loud, Healthy, and Forever and decided to explore further.  Something led you here, and we hope you stay to learn more.

 

Bring it on!

The Intro to NVM class will give you enough information to make a decision about whether or not you'd like to continue on to earn your certification in Neuro-Vocal Method.  It will also introduce you to a new way of thinking about teaching voice.  And that will be fun and interesting.  We promise.  

 

If, as a voice teacher, you know that it's possible to teach healthy CCM/Popular technique, but you just haven't been sure about how to go about it, this class is for you.  If you've always believed that it's not possible to sing CCM/Popular styles in a way that's healthy for the voice, then this class is definitely for you!

 

Let's be honest. 

Everybody who's created a voice teaching method has done it with the best of intentions.  No difference here.  Every method is trying to solve certain pedagogical issues.  Here, too.  NVM holds the key to some confounding things about teaching healthy, genre-appropriate CCM/Popular styles, and if this method is talking sense to you, you'll know it right away.

Neuro-Vocal Method may be a bit different from other methods you've explored.  For one thing, it's a dedicated CCM/Popular method.  It's for people who sing CCM.  (So, if you're an independent voice teacher, that's most of your studio, right?)  For that reason, the course addresses a bit about what CCM/Popular singing really is and the ways it's different from classical singing.  NVM is also based on neurology, and how to manipulate human biological systems.  It's a fast way to get consistent and healthy results.  If you want to know the more about Neuro-Vocal Method - how it came about, what it is, and pictures of brains - click HERE.

The certification course is all about application, and you can take it after the Introduction course.  We broke the course into two sections both because our beta testers suggested it, and because, well... that's how we'd like for ourselves. 

It's all about you.

We're pretty sure that once you understand how Neuro-Vocal Method works, you'll be eager to learn how to apply it.  No need to become an acolyte, or to strictly adhere to a certain way of doing things.  Once you understand the foundation and the application, you can add your new knowledge to what you already teach.  NVM is pretty flexible that way.

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT FOR VOICE TEACHERS AND SINGERS

Hosted by a local music school or college, Neuro-Vocal Training is designed to be accessible and beneficial to teachers of all types of backgrounds and levels of experience.

 

Discover how powerful applying the principles of neuroscience to singing can be.

Experience teaching immediate and healthy improvement in CCM/Popular vocal technique.

Many singers want to achieve an authentic sound for microphone-based styles, and to get over their vocal break. When their voice teachers can't help them with that, it can feel confusing to both student and teacher: why doesn't the application of healthy vocal technique get the student the sound that they're after?

A LITTLE CONFUSING...

Many college-trained voice teachers are experts in classical genres, not popular styles. 

​

It's has become more acceptable to offer training for microphone-based genres, and the stigma around training in those styles is rapidly disappearing.

​

Voice educators around the globe are realizing that if they want to maintain a relevant and prosperous studio, they must offer voice training for popular style.

​

But the old trope that if you can sing classically you can sing anything is not going to either attract or keep students. More importantly, it is not going to get the singers that are trusting you with their voices and education the outcomes that they want.  They are comign to you to help them realize their musical intentions, and that's a humbling responsibility.

And that's where things can get frustrating for everyone.

You Said It!

The current climate of voice training can be frustrating to both teacher and student. Everyone can see and hear that the overwhelming number of singing opportunities are available for those who can comfortably sing popular styles. It's most likely that a singer taking voice lessons is seeking to master that style. Yet very few teachers are absolutely comfortable teaching CCM/Popular. The result? Frustrated students, and voice studios with high turnover.
