If you had told me my vocal ability would improve after just one session, I might not have believed you – but that is exactly what I experienced!!!! Carolyn is truly a vocal sensei, a master at her craft who helps us move past the limits we place on ourselves! Thank you Carolyn!

Carolyn IS a Sensei! Truly a Master at her craft. I felt right at home and comfortable working with her right out of the gate… so much so, she nearly fell out of her chair when I told her in our 1st session “I TRUST YOU”.I’ve been singing for awhile, but I’ve known of Carolyn’s work for years and I always knew I would call upon her when I needed help. I’m sure glad I did!

Carolyn has been coaching my 8 year old and I see a vast improvement in her confidence and vocal development. I sometimes can’t believe my ears when I hear her singing. She’s also learning a variety of music styles to the point of asking me to spin some ole skool music for her. I like that the program is goal driven and progress is measured. Credit to Carolyn for really taking her under her wings.

Carolyn Thompson is a TEDx speaker, a singer and vocal performance coach. She also happens to rent office space at The Workaround. I’ve heard Carolyn with her students, so as I struggled this week to get the tone and pacing of my talk right, I asked to hire her for an hour. I figured even though I don’t need formal acting lessons to give a presentation, simply running through my talk with a pro would be a good use of time.WELL. Here is a story of me going in with not many expectations and being totally blown away by talent. It’s a wonder why Carolyn isn’t booked up for months. In just 45 minutes not only did she give me tools for memorization that actually stuck in my brain, but she taught me skills I had never heard of before. And I give talks A LOT. I thought I knew what I was doing. But I was WRONG.I have a better understanding of how to not jumble my words, to punch consonants and breathe correctly. I understand what it means to present confidence and really feel your words. Carolyn did that for me. I repeat, IN ONE SESSION. I had to hire her again this week so I could get even better at perfecting my delivery.If you are preparing for a talk, even virtually, I HIGHLY recommend a virtual hour with Carolyn. She brought my talk to the next level. I am more confident for filming than I ever was, and this is saying a lot given I’ve been in lockdown with two sick kids and solo parenting and trying to manage a business from home. I was sure I’d be screwing this whole thing up. But Carolyn truly helped me, beyond what I thought, and I was reminded to ditch the whole “I’m an expert and have got this” ego. I went into a learning session willing, but not expecting, to be molded, and I was TRANSFORMED. Do it. Hire Carolyn. The end

Carolyn is amazing and super positive. It’s still early days but I think I’m on track for an improved singing voice. Highly recommend 10/10

I have been working with Carolyn for the last few months and love it. I look forward to every session. My singing background isn’t substantial but its something I really wanted to do and she has helped me get out of my own way, which is such a great feeling and allows me to do things I never thought you could. I learn something at every session and I am able to apply it in real life musical situations. Thanks Carolyn for your patience, understanding, humor and of course being my Sensai! when its time to get to work!

My daughter had her first lesson with Carolyn and was at first quite nervous but by the end of just that first lesson was singing louder and with more confidence! I’m impressed! Carolyn is a very fun and informative instructor. My daughter is looking forward to additional lessons with Carolyn!

Carolyn has a way bringing the best out of her students. Her method of teaching is a fusion of technique and practicality that is challenging as well as rewarding. On top of all of that, she is an absolute delight in lessons! Carolyn can help you realize the voice that you’ve had inside yourself all along, and she can teach you how to embrace your own voice in order to build up your confidence so you can share it. Carolyn sees music and singing as an act of storytelling. No better time than now to start listening to her stories and learn how to effectively tell your own.

Carolyn coached me five years ago just before I went into the studio for the first time to do some recording with my band, and she was tremendous help as I tried to capture my voice and sound. Now that I have an opportunity to sing again – often and publicly, I knew I needed Carolyn’s help again. Her techniques and her style have helped me move my voice to new places, and more than anything else, she has helped me get out of my own way to let my style and talent shine thorough. I would highly recommend Carolyn to anyone who wanted voice or performance training – she’s the best.
