To offer a natural, simple, and enjoyable approach to
singing, using ground breaking techniques enabling singers
at any stage in their development to sing with confidence,
reach new levels of achievement, and create compelling
performances that heal both singer and audience.
Drawing on experiences in the oriental mystic arts
and healing energies, a revolutionary approach to singing
has been created. It will raise any performer and performance,
whether newcomers to the stage or an experienced performer
looking to retain and enhance their power of performance.
The basic CoreSinging
course consists of a unit of three days that are to
be taken consecutively. Teachers and singers who have
attended Meribeths workshops have had immediate
positive results for themselves and their students.
Introduction to CoreSinging
Dynamic balance.
Understanding and using all the dimensions of the
human energy field
Breathing through the energy field
Spontaneous song-making and scatty conversations
Practice makes perfect?...
Imagination unlimited
Compelling performance
Please Note:CoreSingingis designed to complement any
system or method of singing, not replace it.
Dynamic balance
Using concepts of Qigong and Taichi, dynamic balance is a
way of directing energy to balance the body for singing.
Understanding the dimensions of the human energy field
The current emphasis on the physical aspects of singing are
insufficient and limiting. To have real impact, we need to
include all the dimensions.
Breathing through the energy field
The energy field is large, porous and breathes as a unit.
When we take away the conscious physical emphasis on how we
breathe and allow the subconscious to take the air needed,
there is a marked increase in sound quality and ability to
sustain sound.
Spontaneous song-making and Scatty conversations
By beginning with musical conversations with oneself
or the teacher or a group, barriers of expectation and assumption
begin to fall away. Creating your own songs spontaneously,
much like children, is playful and removes self-judgement
and the preoccupation with the possibility of failure.
Practice makes perfect?... Or does it?.. Or how can it?
A look at the ways performers approach practice and how to
make it meaningful and efficient.
Imagination Unlimited
Imagination drives the voice and performance. Using some simple
techniques for accessing and expressing onomatopoetic aspects
and the emotion of the song will allow singers to be natural
in performance. Fear disappears and compelling performance
ensues.

Meribeth's Masterclass at the RNCM
was astounding. She taught with a simplicity and truthfulness
that can only come from profound understanding... students
made extraordinary, immediate, and lasting transformations.
Susan Roper, Director of Vocal Studies, Royal Northern
College of Music
Then we were at the feet of
another master….all I would say at this point is that
if you haven’t yet done so, then make every effort you
can to listen to her ‘live’ . From AOTOS UK Journal of Singing
There is a wholistic joy about
her work that inspires performers and listeners alike…
Her spontaneity/authority balance is superb, and I am
convinced that my experience of her work has deepened
and enriched my own vocal coaching more than that of
any other single influence in recent years. Robin Bowman, Former Head of Vocal Studies, Guildhall
School of Music and Drama
Meribeth has transformed my
(whole) approach to singing. Nancy Argenta, soprano, International concert artist
…unrivalled understanding of the vocal instrument,
she appears to achieve near-miracles in freeing the
sound. Hazel Wood, past president AOTOS (UK)
Not only am I more confident
as a performer and person, but my vocal technique, breath,
and alignment have changed significantly. I believe
that your intuitive work helped me be more loving and
forgiving in my singing.
Aaron Ferguson, Tenor, Canada
She introduced a new awareness
that helped me to and to trust my own gifts and abilities.
I noticed immediate changes with my health, my awareness
of self and as well as in my singing voice. I recommend
her sessions to anyone interested in the whole aspect
of singing and how it relates to the vast world around
us.
Cari Burdett, Joy Through Music, Canada
I felt immediately comfortable
about working with you from our first conversation.
Since our sessions I have successfully performed at
a number of public events and auditions and am feeling
entirely better about the whole thing. I found it very
easy to implement your recommendations and they are
making a noticeable difference to not only my performance,
but also to how much I enjoy practicing.
