You may have focused your efforts on your great brain and fabulous body, but how much attention have you paid to ensuring that your voice suits your image? The spell and power of a beautifully graceful and stylish woman can be ruined in a millisecond if her voice is wrong. Because we can't hear our voices ourselves, we tend not to focus on them, but if you want to know how to make a long lasting great impression, voice is crucial.
Actors learn how to show different emotions by learning different voices, whether we like it or not we are judged on it unwittingly and instantly. A voice too high, too timid, too loud, too gruff, will all limit an individuals full potential. High Society Secrets classes teach the crucial elements of voice work and develop programmes to work on the four essentials: diction, clarity, intonation and conviction. Our classes also train in breathing and posture techniques, as used by professional singers, to enable your natural voice to be released. These exercises are fun and immediately rewarding.
A word about accents, while we can teach you to speak like the Queen in received pronunciation if you would like, we admire the honestly of accents and their heritage. We don't want to make people something they're not, we do want to give the secrets of the priviledged to all. What is important about any form of communication is that it is clearly understood and attractive at the same time.
Another important factor in voice is what to say and when, how to fill awkward moments if you want to and, for the shy, we have a whole section on conversation starters in our classes.
