What is Holistic Voice Coaching?
Holistic voice coaching acknowledges that the voice is a part of a whole person. While excellent vocal technique is essential, it’s only one piece of the puzzle. If we don’t also address your physical, mental, and emotional well-being, we’re not truly helping you thrive as a singer, artist, or individual.
My name is Kat Martin, and I am the founder of Wylde Voices, a holistic voice coaching studio. I guide people to move past their own barriers and finally step into the singers and performers they’ve always dreamed of becoming.
Why is this so important to me? Because for many years, I was a blocked singer. I worked with numerous voice teachers over the decades—some not so great, some extraordinary. One even taught me a truly powerful vocal technique.
Yet, I still struggled. I experienced vocal fatigue, dealt with vocal health issues, and bombed auditions. My pre-performance anxiety was crippling, and I constantly sabotaged my own opportunities to build a musical career. No teacher ever addressed the other aspects necessary for me to become a successful, healthy, and fulfilled vocalist. I didn’t have a guide who considered me as a whole person—so I became that guide. A holistic voice coach.
Through alternative methods, healing modalities, and exploring every vocal technique I could find, I came to understand not only the anatomy of the voice but how deeply connected it is to our overall well-being.
Your voice is far more than just an instrument for singing. While it’s a miraculous tool housed in your body, it is also profoundly influenced by your physical, mental, and emotional health, your nervous system, your subconscious thoughts, fears, and internal blocks—just to name a few.
Although I am not a therapist or a doctor, and I do not serve as a substitute for either, I work with the many facets of you that may be limiting your ability to access your most powerful voice.
Whether you aim to sing professionally, shine at karaoke, sing to your baby, improve communication with loved ones, or confidently speak up for yourself or others, I have helped hundreds of people discover and unleash their most authentic voices.
And I can’t wait to help you find yours!
xoxo, Kat
