Performance Lab

Practicing by yourself can only take you so far.

I practiced alone for years and still didn’t feel ready. I learned the hard way: you have to make mistakes in front of others, or you never move forward.

What happens in a Lab

+

The Lab is 90 minutes, up to four participants, everyone nervous, no audience except each other — just enough pressure to make voices improve lightning fast.

Today I’ve practiced making my mistakes in front of people so much that they no longer look like mistakes. That’s what the Lab is for.

Each Performance Lab is a guided, small-group session where you bring material you’re actively developing and work through it within the group setting. You’ll perform or present, receive real-time coaching, and observe others working through similar challenges.

Watching others work is part of the learning. Hearing the feedback others receive and noticing how adjustments unfold in the moment informs your own practice.

We start with a short warm-up together. Then each person in turn performs their piece, gets feedback, tries a few things and may run it again. We finish with a short wrap-up.

There’s no curriculum to complete and no milestones to “pass”. Progress happens by showing up, applying the work, and letting repetition do its job.

Preparation has its limits. Skills strengthen through use, not isolation. The Performance Lab is a structured environment where material is tested, feedback is integrated, and control develops through continued application.

Real-world examples

For singers
  • Singing the full piece without stopping to fix a missed note.
  • Continuing after a crack or slip instead of restarting.
  • Starting a song in the wrong key and self-correcting as you go, without stopping.
For speakers
  • Speaking without scripting every sentence in advance.
  • Recovering smoothly after losing your train of thought.
  • Finding your voice when you’re asked to speak unexpectedly.

Who this is for

+

Adults, 18 and up. You’re in the right place if you:

  • Sound fine practicing and lose it the moment someone is listening
  • Have a piece you have worked on for weeks and never performed for anyone
  • Want to sing or speak in front of people and have it feel easier than it does
  • Are curious what you actually sound like out loud, with people listening
  • Have an audition, a showcase or a gig coming up and want the reps first

Everyone in a Lab is outside their comfort zone. That is where the learning happens.
