About

I’m a holistic coach with 25 years’ experience with beginner to gold medal groups in Australia, the UK and the US. I’m a Sweet Adeline International Faculty Associate, and Master Director of national past champion chorus A Cappella West. I’ve sung in quartets for 30+ years and am Tenor of Skylark - currently 9th place International in Sweet Adelines. I also hold a Pan Pacific Mixed Gold medal (Twice On Sunday). Want to clean up your ensemble’s sound? Want to find artistry in your delivery? Want some practical conducting tutoring or director mentorship? Call me ;-)

Cocktail Hour

quartet

Jo's coaching is absolutely world class! We are very lucky to have her in Australia, she brings a wealth of in-depth knowledge in vocal production, and the ability to explain and demonstrate it in a way that is accessible. Jo has helped our ensemble access a shared resonance space that is free and easy, creating unity and consistency in our approach. Highly recommended Jo!

Boulevard Harmony

chorus

Jo significantly helped unify Boulevard's mixed voices in just one session. She is very quick at getting to the major target opportunities for improvement and then relentlessly encouraging the group to maintain that new standard.
