Of course don’t forget our TeleVoice Workouts – the last Wed of each month.  Due to an extremely busy voice work schedule I was unable to host July’s workshop but we’ll be back on board for Aug.  Register soon.  This is a fantastic opportunity to work on current auditions (have them directed for a better shot at booking the job), to brush up on current skills or just get your feet wet.  Each session is catered to your individual needs.  Only 4 participants max per session.  Two session times offered: 2-4 p.m. EST and 8-10 p.m. EST.  If this doesn’t work for your schedule, consider booking a private session.  All sessions are recorded and uploaded for your review.  Remember, I don’t need to see you, I need to hear you.  This is the most cost effective way to maintain or learn this craft in a workshop setting while still getting one on one.  $105.00 per session  Aug 26th, 2009  Register – [email protected]   There is more information on our website in the workshop section – www.micnme.com
