The Voices of Lockdown

The Covid-19 Lockdown is producing some incredible demonstrations of the power of the voice.

Some of my favourites have been from the Italian balconies. If you’ve not seen them yet, check out this YouTube video for a selection of the most popular.

The powerful singing shows voice connecting us, despite the social distancing measures in place.

Moving coaching and singing lessons online has allowed me to continue training with students, and broaden my offering to a wider geographical area at the same time.

Boundaries

Boundaries are compassion. “I actually got that from a life-coach” Understanding that boundaries can be a service to one’s own spirit.

Blocks

I’ve always been interested in healing blocks and stepping into a realm of possibility because of my own blocks. there’s a cycle here – we

"It's perhaps especially hard to find one’s creative feet again at this stage of life and after surrendering so much to motherhood for so many years. But Bex took me on a journey in search of the creative treasure I have to offer the world.

I truly believe I couldn't have found the shoes that fit without her help, providing guidance, intuitive and empathetic insight and using various tools and warmth, she helped me to gain more clarity than I've probably ever had, certainly in a very long while.

She's gently nudged me into getting my shit together (!)...get organised and to trust myself again. It's been a process.... and not easy at times. I'm finding my voice again now and having a good long look at those shoes I so want to step into. I think I will."

"Although I am already a singer in a band, I had never been trained technically and felt I needed some guidance.

Rebecca, not only helped me with improving my techniques, she also took me on a journey, unveiling my potential as a musician and helping build my confidence musically.

I am now much more aware of my potential and I owe this to her well paced, empathetic and tailored approach to teaching and coaching."

"My name’s Beth Morafon. I am the founder and director of VisitMor public realm and visitor experience consultancy. I came to Bex over a year ago, as an associate had recommended her as a voice coach. I was looking for support in finding my voice.

Those early coaching sessions occurred at a transformative time in my 20 year career and I realised I could also benefit from life coaching. Bex provided me with an amazing reflective space, with tools to grow and transform, to meet the challenges I faced. I found her unwavering confidence in me empowering. She helped me find my strength and step into my potential.

I am hugely grateful to Bex for supporting me through this transition into founder and director of my own consultancy, VisitMor limited. Since launching the consultancy, I have won and delivered many high quality interpretation and visitor experiences contracts to prestigious clients across the UK. I highly recommend working with Bex Baxter."

"Bex has got a gift for getting the performer relaxed and working in their optimal way. When it comes to the technical and physiological aspects of singing, Bex is great at seeing the whole body-mind picture and has a knack for giving the right advice if you’re struggling with tuning, or pitch, or timbre, or feeling, or reaching that high note you know you can reach but just can’t because of the pressure and the tension.

She is attentive to the little things that aren’t quite right - it might be my jaw position, posture, breathing or just the way I’m approaching a note, mentally. She can reframe the narrative of the approach and suddenly she's hit the nail on the head and I’m singing again!"

"Meeting Bex has been a gift. She was just the right teacher to help me find my singing voice and feel more confident. My lessons were relaxed and fun, ideal for a beginner like me.

Bex introduced me to various techniques, songs and exercises always working with me in a very supportive way. Thank you Bex, I have surprised myself, never too old to discover the singer inside."
