Performance & Confidence Coaching!



Hi Everyone!

I would like to let you all know about fantastic and incredibly effective Performance & Confidence coach Carol Baldwin!

Carol is a Master practitioner, Facility Coach (which is like a Life coach but so much more) and runs her own life development business 'Amazed Lives '. Her job has taken her all around the world doing seminars to hundreds of people.

What is life coaching?

What life coaching does is help a person identify and develop what they already know about themselves and help them achieve a personal goal or target. 

How can life coaching help you with singing?

Singing is such a personal and psychological experience. No matter how advanced we are, we can all feel like we are unable to achieve our own personal goals. This can sometimes be due to 'limiting beliefs' that we have about ourselves or a lack of confidence which stems from a place that we can't explain!

Carol does all what life coaching does and more. With facility coaching she will help identify the blockages within someone that stops them getting to that goal. Much of this goes on at a sub-conscious level, meaning people will behave or respond a certain way and have no idea they are doing it or why. So for many people, just knowing their goal and how to get there is not enough, they will still struggle achieving their goal because of different behaviour patterns and 'coping' mechanisms they have put in place un-knowingly. Carol is able to identify the blockages in a persons thinking or actions, or both, that limits their potential and achievements. She then gives affective tools to get the person over and past the blockage.

Why work with Carol? 

By working with Carol, you are guaranteed to be far more effective during singing lessons. When we are battling with ourselves, we are not as capable of producing the results that we want. By understanding our behaviours, we remove the blockages that limit us and our potential sky rockets! 

Performance and Confidence coaching frees you to become far more effective in every aspect of your life! It guarantees the ability to speed up achieving your personal goals and, therefore, is more cost effective in the long term if you are training as a beginner, intermediate or advanced level singer! 

Carol comes recommended by:


PROVOICE STUDIOS  - www.provoicestudios.co.uk

and

...Both Kate Walker @ Provoice Studios and Helen Monks say that they have seen dramatic changes in both the attitudes and effectiveness of many of their own students after working with Carol!

Well Done to Katie McCaig-Clark!

Company's variety show 'Musicality' at The Little Theatre in Lord St 
Macclesfield. 


This weekend Katie will be doing promotional activities 
for Upstage in Macclesfield town centre, and also attending a screen
