🎙️ The Evolution of Vocal Spark MasterClasses

Since 2014, this journey has helped countless individuals find their voice. Through continuous evolution, it became a supportive and transformative experience for singers, speakers, and performers. Originally conceived as a way to elevate vocal training, it has expanded into a powerful series of sessions designed to inspire and uplift.

Despite challenges such as a global pandemic, the program has now been reborn as the Vocal Spark MasterClass. This evolution, known as MasterClass 2.0, builds on the original series with enhanced features, broader reach, and an even more dynamic approach to vocal training.

Patient, supportive and a good reader of character. Every session I’ve had with Carolyn Thompson has developed my confidence, voice and listening skills. She has helped me focus on my ideas so that I can better prepare myself for public speaking events.
Carolyn T is a fantastic vocal coach! She walks you through each step with great detail, and really allows you to feel comfortable stepping out of your shell as a beginner. She is very patient with her students, and you really do see an improvement in your vocals after one session with her! I enjoyed the break-down of the singing process, and then piecing everything that you’ve learned together at the end of the lesson. I definitely recommend Carolyn T!
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 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.
Amazing experience with an amazing person!
