Carolyn is a true professional. I noticed results after only one session with Carolyn, all through her unique vocal teaching methods. I would recommend Vocal Euphoria coaching to anyone who wants to improve their vocal and live performance abilities

I only had the one lesson with Carolyn, but it definitely won't be my last. She has a wonderfully warm energy and makes you feel comfortable and at ease. The space in her home is inviting and open. More to the point - this is about singing lessons and I felt that, even though it was only the first lesson, I would be able to learn so much from her. I am excited to sign up for more.

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.

I loved working with Carolyn! She helped me harness my craft as a Singer and as a Songwriter. She knows your potential and ensures that you do your best to reach it. She also helped me with my first Stand Up Comedy set and with her help I was able to perform GREAT on stage. Thanks Carolyn!

Carolyn has been instrumental in my development as an artist. Her coaching helped build and refine my skills in singing and delivering my own written music. Her exercises and ability to fine tune my sound with clear advice, and focus me mentally for performances was very helpful. She's also friendly. Your extreme skill and knowledge is inspiring. Thanks a lot!

I look after my daughter's young band, Lightning the Band. A group of shy youngsters with a serious love of music. I was desperately trying to find someone who could coach them musically, as well as with respect to stage presence. Being pretty new to this "manager" of the band type situation, I didn't know where to turn. A good friend suggested I contact Carolyn Thompson. What a session!! She got those kids who were almost too nervous to even speak, to actually start singing and moving. It was an awesome experience. She achieved so much with them is short time available. We were very happy with her abilities and the whole experience. I give her a huge THUMBS UP and 6 stars out of 5! Thanks Carolyn Thompson from Celeste Segal and Lightning the Band!

Wow! Simply WOW! As an entertainment photographer I was invited to shoot a couple of classes. During my career as an entertainment photographer, I have seen hundreds of singers in bands, solo artist, spoken word as well as A Capella. I have always admired someone stepping up in front of an audience, and have a deep appreciation for talent. After so many shows/performances, I believe I am good at spotting true talent over forced. Those who are at ease over those struggling to stay on stage. Since being able to witness first hand what it takes to truly perform vocally, I am now so much more aware of the effort put in by performers since attending these classes. I have personally witnessed Carolyn's coaching and suggestions, and have seen much improvement in those students who have taken to heart her lessons. I believe Carolyn to be not only a thorough instructor, but sensitive and observing of each individual she works with, pinpointing exactly that which could use some work, while at the same time uplifting and praising that which the student already has. Should I ever be so inclined to put my own voice on the line, it is good to know I have a friend in Carolyn who will most certainly help me bring out my best. Knowing my best may not be on par with other performers is not Carolyn's approach, but magnifying and helping one realize each persons own ABILITY most certainly is. Helping these students truly feel comfortable with what they as individuals bring to the 'table' is of the greatest importance, in my opinion, based on what I have witnessed. Building confidence in a room with others present is certainly an amazing tool which Carolyn has truly mastered, and- it works!

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!

I purchased a class with Vocal Euphoria as a Groupon gift for my mother. When she attempted to call Vocal Euphoria, a woman answered and wound't let my mom book a class until she had told her the "goals" of taking a signing class. My mom answered it was a gift from her daughter and it was just for fun, she didn't understand anything about goals. The woman was incredibly difficult. My mother has an accent, and there was no attempt to understand. My mom had to call a second time, and the woman remembered the first conversation. She then refused to book my mom because my mom didn't display enthusiasm for the class. This has been the worst Groupon experience, and a terribly sour turn for what was supposed to be a fun Christmas gift. Just awful to be refused service, especially as my mom is shy about singing and this was supposed to bring her out of her shell. Why offer Groupon experiences if you are not willing to accommodate beginners and those exploring what singing is about? I would not recommend based on awful customer service.

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 is an amazingly positive person, who really makes you feel at ease. Singing in front of people can already be stressful, but she helps you through it making the entire experience enjoyable. She really is a fantastic coach!

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.

I bought 5 classes for public speaking from Carolyn and I came all the way from Newfoundland to do it! I am so glad... that I had these sessions with Carolyn. She is AWESOME! She is professional, organized and super friendly. All heart!!! I never felt stressed or uncomfortable ever. Now that I am finished I am not near as freaked out about public speaking as I was. Her technique is clear and the exercises are very helpful. I was able to figure out why I was having difficulties without Carolyn actually spelling it out for me. That was the beauty because her technique allows the person to experience speaking or singing with confidence and that kind of training is what works. Thank-you Miss Carolyn T. You are the best!read more

Carolyn is not only a person I love with all my heart for many reasons but she is a great singer and an amazing vocal... coach. Some years ago I tried to sing, tried get rid of the thought of me never freeing my voice. At the time I couldn't due to many circumstances, work and so. Even when I couldn't make the best out of my classes with her, I kept her advices stuck in my head. Today, I can proudly say I am a singer too in a touring act and the only vocal couch I've ever had helped me to do so even when she was not there. Now, don't tell this to Carolyn or she will rooster up.read more

Ever think you're an 'ok singer' but 'I could NEVER hit notes like Whitney or Aretha?' That was me a few months ago... when I started vocal coaching with Carolyn Thompson at Vocal Euphoria. What Carolyn has taught me in the last few lessons has completely changed my singing game! Correct posture, relaxation and enunciation techniques are just a few of the tools I've learned from my sessions that have gotten me hitting notes I haven't hit in 20 years....I finally can sing Alone by Heart with the confidence and power I didn't know I had within! Thanks to Vocal Euphoria, I've got the stamina and vocal ability to take on any song like a true diva! Thank you Carolyn! Our journey has just begun, oh wise one! So much more to learn and I can't wait! ☺😊🤗read more

Having worked with Carolyn for 3 months, I can say with confidence she is a teacher who will take you to the next... level. She's fun, easygoing, and her spirit and enthusiasm for teaching will have you feeling comfortable to release your best voice. She focuses on confidence issues and projection and will identify simple ways that you can improve your voice. She won't do the work for you - 90% of your improvement will naturally only be done with time and practice - but she'll teach you some surprisingly simple tricks that will make previous difficulties a breeze, and fun to practice!read more
