Rachael Jewell - MMus in Vocal Performance- The University of Ottawa 


My intention is to provide my students with a safe space in order to freely discover their authentic voice. 

With a foundation of over 20 years of classical training, I have combined my knowledge and experience from performing opera, musical theatre, pop and jazz with my passion for sound healing to create a more wholistic approach to teaching. I believe that when traumatic experiences are not fully processed and healed, they remain stored within the body, ultimately manifesting as limiting beliefs or physical resistance (tension). Together, we can identify these mental, physical and emotional blocks and release them using the power of intention and your own voice. When we release resistance, we are truly unlocking our infinite potential as creative beings.
