Sometimes, getting your voice to do what you want it to means more than just practicing the right vocal exercises. That’s what professional voice coach Line Hilton discovered after working with thousands of talented performers who found their progress hindered by anxiety, self-doubt, and a lack of motivation.
Combining her background as a performer and a nurse, Line developed a unique tool kit that utilizes Rapid Transformational Therapy to identify a performer’s limiting beliefs. From there, she works with students to develop new thinking patterns that foster better creativity, improved performance, and a healthier mindset.
In our chat with Line Hilton, she shares the unexpected journey that led her to become a singing teacher. We learn how a singer’s mindset can impact their performance positively and negatively. And we discover how opening yourself up to multiple schools of thought can lead to many benefits — for both instructors and students.
