Mary McMurtery
Radiant Voice Studio
Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
As a holistic voice instructor, my deepest joy is helping you tap into the artistic flame deep in your soul–discovering it, honoring it, fanning and feeding it until it burns brightly with your profound potential.
Just as each singer’s voice is unique, the process of discovering, unlocking, and honing one’s vocal expression is, too. I love partnering with my students to guide and nurture them as they make their own exciting vocal discoveries, whether they aspire to perform professionally, or want to enjoy the same level of support, while pursuing other professional interests. Every singer deserves top-notch vocal instruction, regardless of level, background, or goals, and that’s what this studio is about–revealing your unique voice, so you can release your inner radiance.
My favorite Rumi quote sums it up for me: “Let the beauty we love be what we do.
Let’s find out what lights you up - RVS is now accepting new students online!

Joslin Romphf Dennis
JRD Voice Studio
Delta, British Columbia, Canada
Joslin is the studio owner and lead teacher at JRD Voice Studio in beautiful Delta, British Columbia, Canada. The studio is a hybrid, welcoming students to the home studio AND online, from all over the world.
She is thrilled to be a certified Neuro Vocal Method teacher, helping students discover THEIR unique voices with sass and unicorn sparkle, no matter what genre lights them up. From 6-76, through student-centered learning, Joslin helps singers unlock their voices so they can express themselves through music and say what they want to say - healthfully and sustainably.
With a background in classical/opera and a B.Mus/M.Mus from the Curtis Institute of Music, Joslin began to realize that while this technical method works extremely well for those genres, it is not useful for producing the kinds of sounds and effects that singers of CCM/Musical Theatre/popular microphone styles are looking for (and that's ok!). When she came across Meredith's High Rock Belt Workshop, a lightbulb went on, she started to understand that there is a pedagogy and framework for these styles, and learning it made singing them so joyful and rewarding for both herself and her students that she immediately signed up for the certification course. She continues to do professional development in this area, constantly working and learning more about vocal pedagogy in order to offer the best support to her singers she can.
The rest is history - Joslin works with singers of all styles and levels - from avocational kids, teens, and adults, to aspiring professional singers, confidently helping them navigate best technical practices for the rep they want to sing - and having a BLAST while they do it!

Louise Tingley
Creative Singing Studios
Norfolk, United Kingdom
Originally from Australia, now based in the UK, I am a Multi-Disciplinary Artist, and Voice Coach (of over 20 years), with additional certifications as a Music Therapist, Life and Business Coach / Mentor.
I kind of fell into the world of voice coaching at quite a young age thanks to my voice coaches (Opera Singers, Jon Weaving & Monique Brynell), who (it seemed) were forever recommending students to me.
It wasn't all sunshine and roses though!
While I had received a part-scholarship to study a Bachelor of Music, majoring in opera performance, at the Victorian College of Arts at just 17 years of age(!) as I was about to enter my final year, I received the very serious diagnosis of a brain tumour which forced me to withdraw from my studies and focus on my treatment and recovery.
Throughout my treatment, I noticed severe changes to my voice.
My voice coaches didn't know how to help, and my neurologist couldn't help with the vocal aspect, yet posed some very curious and interesting questions which prompted me to explore the intricate connections between the brain, body, and the voice - something I'm always learning more about!
Combining my own personal experience, along with my (continually evolving) professional expertise, my primary purpose for continuing to coach aspiring singers & songwriters is to help others navigate vocal challenges they may be experiencing, offering compassionate and informed guidance, and I'm thrilled to be a NeuroVoice Coach and part of this elite community!

Melissa Kamm
Silver Lining Arts Academy
Shawnee, OK, USA
Growing up performing in church, I realized how that helped me to overcome major performance anxiety and develop confidence. Now I have performed in many operas and musicals, sang recitals, and performed with orchestras. I have been the musical director for shows and have led worship in several churches. All because of the confidence I obtained performing as a young person. I want to help other students gain the confidence they need to share their best voice.
Being certified as a Neuro-vocal Method teacher has given me more confidence in my own voice as well as my teaching studio!
With more than 30 years of teaching and performing, I look forward to 30 more years!
