GROW Voice is a voice and communication practice. Building your vocal presence. I have taught singing since 2002 before I even launched my performance career.
I am Gina Razon, classically-training mezzo-soprano, professional classical singer and principal teacher at GROW Voice (short bio at the bottom of this post). My passion for teaching voice stems from an essential belief. I believe in the power of the human voice, how it connects us and empowers us. For over a decade, the studio consisted primarily of singers aged 12-90. In 2013, I moved to Boston
which gave me the opportunity to rethink methodologies and what I could offer to my new community. For years, I have been struck by the many people I encounter who don’t like, or even actively hate, their voices. The voice is a primary mode of communication and still, so many people don’t feel connected to their own voice. I knew I could help and so I founded GROW Voice as a singing, and speech studio. Singers coming to studio generally understand why they want to pursue singing. I teach them solid techniques and how to access their true sound in the styles of singing that most appeal to them. While I sing classically professionally, I can and do sing Music Theatre and CCM, sometimes in the same program. My goal is always to teach this versatility to my students while teaching them to incorporate the whole body. Speakers generally know what they don’t like about how they speak but not what is possible. Some have true issues with hoarseness, lack of clarity, heavy accents and/or problems with volume. It is incredibly hard to chart your personal and professional life if you literally cannot be heard or understood. I truly believe, and the results in the studio confirm, that everyone can access a voice that is both functional and truly their own. You can love your own voice and frankly, you deserve a voice you love. Professional speakers come to the studio with different concerns, typically fatigue and overuse related. I love to expand a professional's toolbox so that the voice remains a strong and expressive delivery system for the story. I hope to see you out and about speaking and singing well. If you need some help with that, I would love to speak with you.

The body is not downstream of the communication. It is upstream of it.
When people come to work with me, the most common frustration I hear is that they know what they want to communicate — the message is clear, the preparation is done — and something still goes wrong in the delivery. The voice tightens. The thought slips. The presence is not there.
The work is not entirely in the message. It is in the physiology that produces it.
The Body Leads is a free guide I put together for professionals who want to understand that layer and start working with it. It covers the mechanisms from these posts and gives you practical tools to actually apply them. Grab it here and let me know what you think.
