Registration for our April 2025 group is now open! CWHC’s Aligning Voice with Identity 4-part virtual educational series will take place throughout April, on Tuesday evenings. Participants are welcome to join the Level 2 group. Those who have already completed this series are invited to register again to refresh their skills or join our Level 2 group for a deeper dive into session topics.

Level 2: April 1st, April 8th, April 22nd, and April 29th from 8-9pm CT

Level 2 is a bit more advanced and a good fit for people who've completed all of level 1 and have a firm understanding of the topics but want to explore them more deeply.

Each session is designed to build on the different tools and experiences that were explored during the first series. All of these skills and tools are oriented towards developing a speaking voice that better aligns with a person’s identity.

Typical topics that are included in the Aligning Voice with Identity series include:

Vocal Confidence 

• Find a vocal “placement” that is comfortable and empowering for you. 

• Build better breath support for your voice 

• Walk away with a daily/weekly practice  

Pitch Modulation 

• Discover your “baseline” pitch range  

• Execute greater pitch range (lower and higher) using tools that are healthy, sustainable, and empowered.  

• Walk away with a daily/weekly practice  

Vocal Obstacles from HRT  

• Explore when and why your voice might struggle with vocal stability (voice cracking etc). 

• Adopt 3 tools to build a new coordination with your changing voice 

• Walk away with a daily/weekly practice  

Communicating Under Duress 

• Discover the vocal habits that sabotage us when we’re not feeling safe or self-confident.  

• Develop and integrate vocal and breathing tools to help counterbalance those moments of insecurity.  

• Walk away with a daily/weekly practice 

Voice Coaching at CWHC is NOT about changing your voice to fit what the world thinks you should sound like. We aim for every client to not just tolerate their voice but be proud of it. Register below!
