Episode 191 of the FULL VOICE Podcast features musical theatre repertoire for young(ish) performers with Nicky Phillips, co-creator of the Tweens n' Teens Songbook. Nicky discusses the inspiration and creative process behind this project. Nicky shares details about her successful online voice studio and gives FULL VOICE Podcast listeners a preview of the exciting new music from the upcoming Tweens 'n Teens Volume Two. The Tweens 'n Teens Songbook https://www.nickyphillips.com/tweensnteenssongbook Nicky's online voice studio www.nickyphillipsvocalstudio.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nickyphillips_music/ Songs by Nicky Phillips and Sarah Ziegler featured in this podcast: Julia, You're Fired! featuring Elena Holder Julia for Justice featuring Sophia Manicone (From the upcoming Volume 2) It's Just Not My Thing featuring Sarah Bock Dino Kid featuring Layla Capers About our Guest Nicky Phillips is an award-winning composer, lyricist, and teacher. She is currently a member of the BMI-Lehman Engel Advanced Musical Theatre Workshop, where she was awarded the Jean Banks Award for outstanding achievement in Musical Theatre. An alumnus of the Johnny Mercer Songwriters Project, Nicky was mentored by Lin-Manuel Miranda and Craig Carnelia. Her work has been showcased at Lincoln Center, 54 Below, Don't Tell Mama, The Laurie Beechman Theatre, and The New York Theatre Barn. She has had writing residencies at CAP21, the Human Race Theatre Company and was awarded the artist in residence at the Margret and H.A.Rey Center. She was honored to have written an original song for Colm Wilkinson that was featured in Music of the Night-a tribute to Colm Wilkinson.

In service-oriented or membership-based businesses, (such as music schools), there is a natural ebb and flow of students. However, some students remain engaged for significantly longer, sometimes spanning years to decades. Is there a magic formula that keeps students with us for extended periods of time? Nikki shares her recent visit to Ontario to see former students perform in Musical Theater shows and discusses the different musical journeys of three unique singers. Tying that together with helpful teacher considerations for celebrating students and improved communication for better student retention. Friends and colleagues! Nikki and the Full Voice Team wish you the happiest of seasons and best wishes for an exciting and prosperous New Year.

"Student-led learning and teaching is easier when you have a rich artistic personal life because the ego is already fed on a much healthier diet and therefore can disentangle from the student's progress." Artistic Embodiment Coach Sarah Rockwood discusses celebrating and nurturing our artistic selves. Sarah also offers straightforward techniques for rekindling our creativity and redefining the concept of being an 'artist,' irrespective of whether we engage in formal performances. About Sarah Rockwood I'm a singer/songwriter, actor, author, director, playwright, music producer, artistic embodiment coach, inexhaustible optimist, and unflinchingly forthright human being. At my core, I am a storyteller. The form simply changes based on the needs of the tale; some become songs, others novels, and some stories can be told with a simple moment of stillness. However, there are clear themes that run through my work: the pain of being misunderstood, the joy of discovery, and the deep calm that comes from embracing one's power. I bring this energy to my coaching as I help artists stand at the leading edge of their greatness and build lives that fully represent them. 👉Find and follow Sarah: IG: https://www.instagram.com/rockwood_sarah/ Website: https://www.rockwoodalchemy.com/ Podcast: Elemental Alchemy https://www.rockwoodalchemy.com/contact-1-2 Special Offer: 👉Use the Coupon Code FULLVOICE10 to save 10% off of Sarah's services, 1-Hour coaching (Magic Hour) 12-Week Program (Book of You) _____________________________________________________________________ New Teacher Workshop Monday, November 20th, 2023 11AM ET Join us for an insightful online presentation on Voice Growth and Change in Kids and Teens with Dr. Jenevora Williams. 👉https://www.fullvoicemusic.com/product/voice-growth-and-change-in-kids-and-teens-with-dr-jenevora-williams/

We all get nervous about price increases. Teachers lose sleep, worrying about what would happen if they raised rates with a slight increase. What would happen if you DOUBLED your rates? Bethany did the math and discovered that she needed a significant increase to make a living. Did it work out for her? Did she lose all her students?... Listen to the season eight premiere episode and find out! About our guest Bethany is a voice and piano teacher from Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. She works with singers of all ages and teaches private and small group classes. Bethany received her Doctor of Musical Arts from the University of Western Ontario.

When Bethany is not working, she likes to read, help at the local community theatre, and take her dog Penny for walks. This fall, She will be returning to school full-time for Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology while she continues to teach full-time.

And it starts within you. Let’s learn together to become better teachers, artists, and whole humans. To register for this event: https://thevoicelabinc.thinkific.com/collections
