Pure Voice Power training improves the sound of your voice. We can modify it in many ways so you can enjoy overall improvement with your speaking voice.

Pure Voice Power training also improves your diction so your words are clearer and easy-to-understand.

Pure Voice Power is about marketing yourself by improving your ability to communicate and enhancing image, which is important in professional and social settings.

Pure Voice Power is one of the few training systems which combines speech work and voice work.

The Pure Voice Power Speech & Voice training method helps you excel at speaking. It’s not taught in schools. Becoming an expert communicator doesn’t require long, tedious hours of study and practice. With the proper knowledge and tools, you can strengthen your voice and diction skills any time of the day…even in silence.

Pure Voice Power is your “one-stop” learning centre to improve how you speak overall:

1.) Improve the sound of your voice.
2.) Improve your diction.

These two disciplines are usually taught separately. You’d have to work with a voice teacher for sound, AND with a speech therapist or elocution specialist separately to improve your articulation of words. This can be expensive and time consuming.

Voice and enunciation skills are in fact, performing skills.

So really… any time you are talking, you need the power to convince. If you are uncomfortable in front of audiences, why not take action, and improve your voice, speaking and performance skills?

The only things that ensure you will excel at communicating with a ‘performance’ mindset are:
  1.) Experience
  2.) A great training coach
  3.) Practice

In addition, to be an excellent 4-Star ‘performance communicator’ you personally need to:
  1.)…Know your stuff. (be prepared)
  2.)…Persist. (again: practise!)
  3.)…Believe in yourself. (confidence)
  4.)…You also need help from others to achieve your goals. In business, nobody  does anything alone. That is a fundamental fact to keep in mind. You never achieve anything in business alone.

Studies show that poor speaking skills and a weak, or timid sounding voice can adversely affect your earning / income potential in the workplace.

The Pure Voice Power Speech & Diction method helps you develop a unique personal speaking style and sound. Branding yourself in your evolves from your personal & professional image. How others perceive you will impact on your career success! Excellent communicators also gain more respect from others whenever they speak. Your confidence level will soar!

Great motivators throughout history relied on their voices. Sir Winston Churchill, Martin Luther King, john F. Kennedy……….. it’s a long list. Although sound recordings didn’t exist 2,000 years ago, I’d guess that Jesus Christ himself had fantastic public speaking skills. Great leaders speak assuredly with strong, crisp consonants & dynamics. They know how to use dramatic pauses to drive their points home. You never hear fear or nervous tension in any these voices. All great speaking voices command authority….and trust. People who communicate well indicate (on another level) that they are smart.

All professionals who speak to groups or to the public should work with a voice and speech coach at some time in their careers. The more high profile you are, the more important it is to be a superb communicator because understand this: you will be scrutinized closely. Those “on their way up” are also well-advised to pay attention to how they speak and sound.

Here’s an example of an athlete who would benefit from speech and voice training:

If you don’t already know who Michael Phelps is, I’d like to recap his incredible list of accomplishments for you here: Olympic gold medal winner and swimmer, Michael Phelps was born in 1985. Michael won six gold medals and two bronze medals at the 2004 summer Olympic games in Athens. He is a 13-time world record holder, a 3-time Olympic record holder, 18-time American record holder, 5 time world champion, owns 20 National U.S. titles, is the 2001 & 2003 USA swimmer of the year, and the list goes on. He has been on the cover of magazines, appeared on talk shows, and has gained true celebrity status. He is being watched more than ever before in his life.

Michael appeared on the “Tonight Show with Jay Leno”, which aired Oct. 4, 2004. The first thing Jay asked him was to run down the list of medals he had won at the 2004 Olympics.

Michael kind of sighed, rolled his eyes and implied something like “OK. Here we go again.” He quickly ran down the list all the medals and what they were for. I could barely understand a word he said. In fact, the only word I understood in that 15 second description was the word “bronze”. All other words were slurred, rushed, monotone and unintelligible. This young man is a world champion! He’s the best swimmer out of all of the billions of people in the world.

I cannot imagine all the years of conditioning, training, competing, preparing, toning, studying, and everything it took him to arrive at this pinnacle. And yet, the person we see on one of the most popular talk shows in the world (although he is charming and personable) speaks with no strength. There were no end consonants on any of his words as I listened for them, and the sound of his voice was garbled in the back of his throat. It seemed as if he were lazy in his speech, or as if he didn’t care enough to speak clearly. What impression does this make? If we didn’t know who Michael was, we might assume less-than-flattering things about him. It’s like having the finest product in the world and putting it on display in a tattered paper bag. I would insist on packaging this precious gem; this national treasure in the finest way possible. Public presentation and etiquette would logically dictate polish and attention to detail.

This critique is only my opinion, and in no way is meant to reflect on anything except his speaking style. I have the utmost respect for him. The truth is: a very high percentage of pro athletes could greatly benefit from speech and voice training!

Everyone on the list of professions below has something in common: they all have higher than normal demands placed on their voice regularly, beyond usual daily talking requirements.

Kathy’s PURE VOICE POWER Method & Philosophy

Kathy is a professional voice coach like no other. She loves her work. People attending her seminars easily develop a quick, “no-fuss” practice routine to experience continual voice and speech improvement.

“ My method is based on performance. Those who attend my seminars & study with me experience their voices in a new way. You will never improve your voice or diction by just reading about it. You need to actually DO the work, and have fun in the process.

We work hard. And, when necessary, we work fast. There’s fascinating information. The PVP method is based in psychology, science, logic, correct techniques, and anatomy. Repetition is the mother of learning. We get down to business by understanding the principles of muscle memory around the mechanisms involved with vocalization and articulation. Early on, we address confidence and get the proper mindset to foster progress. You then learn all you need to know about your instrument of communication and how it works. In my sessions, I focus on motivation. The whole body contributes to your instrument. What really drives the voice and how you communicate? Your MIND. One should develop the vocal apparatus and its related muscles, then connect it to the mind on a personal level.”

Kathy’s training is affordable, convenient, interesting, and easy-to- remember. In today’s hectic world, there isn’t time to linger and share unnecessarily complicated rhetoric. Kathy doesn’t dwell on things you don’t need to know to speak and sound like a pro. This training is one of the best investments you could make for your professional image, business or employees.
