About James
The goal of the class is to liberate the natural voice by removing blocks, which reveal a voice in direct contact with emotional impulse. It has been my experience that finding the voice finds the performer. This exploration of breath leads to a real connection between the actor and their genuine spirit.

I teach a Linklater-based Vocal Technique Class designed for performers. My teaching experience includes Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute in Los Angeles, Freehold Theatre and Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle, Terry Schreiber Studio and Stonestreet Studios in New York City. I trained with Chuck Jones, Deborah Hecht & Richrd Ericson at SUNY Purchase. Additional instructors include Henry Madden, John Costopoulos, and Joseph Stockdale. In addition to Voice class, I have also taught Shakespeare Intensives, Ibsen, Chekhov and Tennessee Williams Advanced Scene Study classes. The goal of the class is to liberate the natural voice by removing blocks, which reveal a voice in direct contact with emotional impulse. It has been my experience that finding the voice finds the performer. This work trains the student how to use various exercises to release physical tension in addition to removing emotional, intellectual, aural and spiritual blocks. This exploration of breath leads to a real connection between the performer and their genuine spirit. I believe it is this recognition that is the foundation of any work capable of raising the consciousness of an audience.

Perfect! He is a great person and I enjoyed the class a lot.
Perfect! James is the real deal! After our first lesson together, I could tell he is a genius when it comes to voice production and speech. Everything he taught is pure gold in terms of me being able to make free sounds that are truly connected to my emotional center. I know working with him will help my voice as I act, sing, teach, and interact with people in my daily life. I could tell he so loves everything about sharing his wisdom on how to have an expressive, healthy, and free voice-not to mentions, he is completely generous with his time during a lesson! He even sent me some resources by email which included helpful suggestions and warmups I can do between lessons! After the lesson, my speaking voice felt so free, and when I sang a song my voice had some new "colors" to it that I loved. I can't wait for my next lesson! Thank you, James!
