Voice/Singing lessons
Do you have Muscle Tension Dysphonia, or have you had surgery on your vocal folds?
Do you have an important audition or gig coming up? Do you need that extra push to make you stand out and be brave?
Or, are you looking for new ways to express your voice and musicality? Do you feel stuck in your body and just know that there is so much more potential just waiting to shine?
I offer three types of singing lessons:
Healing / Habilitation. Slow and deep healing voice work after experiencing problems such as MTD or other minor injuries on the vocal folds. I recommend at least five sessions.
Quick Fix. For audition/important gig. Typically one or two lessons for extra shine and sparkle.
Standard. Long-term singing lessons where we focus on a sustainable technique, whole body singing, text work, musical intentions, etc.
All lessons can be done on Zoom and IRL (Oslo).
Healing / Habilitation
Do you have Muscle Tension Dysphonia, have you experienced a ”bump in the road”, is your voice not feeling as itself? I can help you return to a voice that can sing freely again. I have personal experience with MTD, surgery, and a long recovery and I know, on a deep level how emotionally exhausting it can be. I am also a certified Vocal health habilitation professional coach and a certified Timani teacher and I have many science based tools in my box.
I do not make diagnoses – you need a laryngologist for that – and I highly recommend also working with a speech pathologist (best case scenario is team work between the SLP and me!). What I do is help you with the actual singing voice. However, the singing voice is not only the voice box but our entire body, which is deeply connected to your nervous system. With exercises and techniques from the Timani-method, I will help you to release muscles that are standing in the way of your true and beautiful voice. Another important focus is self-love and self-empathy.
These lessons are deep and slow. We will be focusing on the small (but huge) shifts in your mind and body and there will be no quick fixes – instead, I will give you tools for yourself to work with in the long run.
I would recommend at least five of these to start noticing changes, and because of that, I will be offering a start package of five lessons.
The sessions will take place either in my studio in Oslo or online via zoom (works astonishingly well!)
You’ll need space to move a little, a bolster or a pillow. A yoga mat and a yoga block are also nice.

Quick Fix
Do you have an important audition or gig coming up? Do you need that extra push to make you stand out and be brave? I can help! In these lessons, we focus on the quick fix, the polish, and what makes you shine and sparkle a little (or a lot!) extra. I can also help you with mental preparation and will give you techniques to control your nervous system.

Standard
Are you looking for new ways to express your voice and musicality? Do you feel stuck in your body and just know that there is so much more potential just waiting to shine?
I offer standard singing lessons where we work on basic and more advanced singing techniques where the whole body is our focus. My teaching is based on Timani and a mix of different voice methods, developed through more than 15 years of meeting students on every level.
In my Ph.D. I also developed methods for embodying and expressing text, characters, and different voices and I am very excited to share them with you.
My wish is to guide you toward Your voice and Your expression!
You are preferably intermediate/advanced.
