Singing in characters and style
The Vocal Chameleon - Musical Improv
(12partipitians)
Break free from "Pretty Voice Syndrome" in this 12-hour masterclass designed to turn you into a sonic shapeshifter.
You’ll stop singing as yourself and start inhabiting the grit of a desperate chimney sweep or the frenetic energy of a caffeinated woodland creature, using vocal physicality and "cheat codes" to master everything from Sondheim to 1920s Jazz.
Whether you’re grit-shifting into a villainous tango or style-swapping from a power ballad to a rap battle, you’ll learn to let the character’s soul dictate the genre and maintain a show-stopping performance through any chord change.

Group Mind
Great improv is all about the "we," not the "me."
In this workshop, you’ll hone your ability to build trust and tap into a shared consciousness to create seamless organic group games.
Through a variety of physical and listening exercises, you’ll move beyond rigid structures to develop your instincts in non-verbal communication, pattern recognition, and collective heightening.
By focusing on the rhythms of the group rather than the individual, you'll learn to initiate and follow organic movements that evolve into complex, spontaneous games.
Strengthening these ensemble instincts allows your team to play as a single unit, transforming a stage full of individuals into a powerful, intuitive "group mind."
