Private Sessions With Amy

Unique, uplifting and fun!
I’ve worked with students all over the world, from actors, singers, song-writers, and voice-over artists, to business people and beyond. (See Testimonials on the right.)

Whether your venue is stage, film, YouTube, or Life, we’ll expand and deepen your range through this work -all via Skype, in the warmth of your own home.

Session Overview

 Standard Sessions are individuals who want in-depth training todevelop and hone skills that will enhance their career and life -or simply pep-up your party tricks!  Whether you’re looking to deepen your performance abilities in acting or singing, broaden your range of dialects, or reduce a foreign accent for business relations, these skills will help you make a greater impact on your audience and yourself.

Dialect Coaching: We begin with the fundamentals of the accent, with worksheets for you to keep.  They break down the accent into 5 aspects: Phonetics, Rhythm and Stress, Melody, Grammar, and “The Vibe” -or what it feels like embody that accent.  We then apply the techniques either to text you bring to work on, or script excerpts I provide, written in your dialect of choice.

We cover a lot in 1 session, but it takes time to learn new skills.  2-3 sessions is recommended for a monologue, 3-5 sessions is recommended for scenes, fully scripted characters, and those who really want to learn in-depth.

Acting and Singing sessions are tailored to your specific needs, whether working on a specific piece for auditions, classes, or a particular character or performance.

Student Discounts are offered for youth and individuals enrolled in full-time tertiary studies.

    Daniele Favilli"Right after the first lesson, my director told me I had already improved. It was easy to work with Amy: she has the rare and beautiful quality of being a shining person, solar and with huge energy to give..." Daniele Favilli Actor

    Bo Roberts"I have gone through speech therapy my entire life. I have also been teased about a speech impediment my entire life. No one could convince me to open up and really work on my voice, until I met Amy. She creates a very inviting and encouraging environment. Working on a "downfall" is such a venerable time but with Amy, I was always eager to receive feedback from her. " Bo Roberts Model, Actor
