page for anyone interested in the Estill Model and related courses.

The Estill Model is a system of voice training that identifies the structures in the larynx responsible for producing voice and those in the vocal tract or throat responsible for controlling resonance and voice quality. Using simple everyday sounds common to everyone, these structures are identified, isolated and then used to develop conscious, voluntary and predictable control of the voice. Wheth

Another accent session today for a new production, walking to rehearsals and enjoying all the surprises and history London has to offer. Keats today! “Give me books, French wine, fruit, fine weather and a little music played out of doors by somebody I do not know.”

The Voice Explained – Levels 1&2 Estill Voice Training SYDNEY IN PERSON 24/07/2026

!! COMING TO SYDNEY !!

LEVELS 1&2 IN ESTILL VOICE TRAINING

12-16 SEPTEMBER at NIDA

PRESENTED ONLINE AND IN PERSON

Expert tuition in Estill Voice Training!

Join me, Anne-Marie Speed, for Levels 1&2 and five days of enlightening, voice restoring, confidence building and career enhancing voice training that will completely change not only how you think about voice but what you believe is possible to achieve.

I am an Estill Mentor and Course Instructor, vocal coach, voice, singing and accent coach working in major films, theatre, TV, West End musical theatre, plays and pop/rock.

Recent film and TV projects include: BACK TO BLACK the Amy Winehouse biopic, WICKED the hit stage musical turned into a hit film, PISTOL the story of the S*x Pistols

The scope and range of my work has been possible because of the practical understanding of voice given to me by Estill Voice Training.

Estill Voice Training is unique in how it explains voice production separate to an attachment to one particular style or genre.

It offers task specific exercises that develop independent voluntary control of the structures responsible for producing voice and controlling resonance. This means that working one structure doesn’t automatically and uninvitedly impact another.

The principles and practise can be applied successfully to speaking and singing, in performance and in the clinic, for teachers, actors and singers, students and professionals, beginners and experts.

🔎 for speaking and singing
🔎 36+ hours of tuition including anatomy, physiology and acoustics
🔎 Interactive, immersive learning
🔎 Breakdown of independent control of 13 vocal structures and 6 Voice Qualities
🔎 Small group practise with individual feedback
🔎 Daily evening masterclass to see the work put into practice, speaking and singing
🔎 Practical solutions to long standing problems
🔎 Voice production clearly explained
🔎 Artistic training embedded
