"What I receive from Mia is how to embody my voice; her deep knowledge & experience of movement and anatomy, her deep knowledge of singing technique, and development of the voice through her background and lifetime of experience. Mia is present for EACH student all day every day ... I am amazed and filled with deep gratitude that I have achieved my main intention, which was to rediscover and reclaim trust in my voice. " ~ Heidi Mattern Singer /Songwriter, Life Coach

" I am very emotional composing this email because you have changed my life in such a short time... My weekly sessions with you these last 3 months have exceeded my greatest expectations.
As a medicine woman, who sings for 5 hours a night, 4 times a week, in order to heal people, what you have given me has deeply touched the lives of so many others. Now, I can fully give myself to the guest who receives my song; now, I am fully present in the healing I am giving. Many of our guests return over and over again, and they have remarked that they cannot believe how beautiful my songs are now, how much my voice has opened and changed, and how confident and present I am during a healing. And all of this I learned because of your tutelage. I am so deeply grateful for your wisdom and guidance. Thank you for sharing your medicine with me, so I can heal and, in return, share my medicine with others.
With your guidance, singing became about connecting to the deepest part of me and celebrating its presence in the world. To sing became a beautiful experience of self-discovery. I can now say I love the deepest part of myself, and for this cherished gift, these words will never suffice. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Mia."

Soul Song Vocal Empowerment Method
A system that weaves spirit, heart, and body wisdom
to cultivate the full potential of your singing voice.
A system that weaves spirit, heart, and body wisdom
to cultivate the full potential of your singing voice.
It is my sincere belief that every voice is needed to serve and uplift the world.
If you’re already doing that, thank you.
If you’re just beginning, or ready to do that in a new way…
Welcome, you’re in the right place.
"The voice is the muscle of the soul."
~ ALFRED WOLFSOHN Singer, Pioneering Vocal Coach and Pedagogist |
For those of you who are being called to live into the fullness of your voice, I know the courage it takes to engage that calling seriously, and face the fears that come with being seen and heard. I trust you would not feel such a call unless your medicine, your purpose, is intricately woven with the full opening of your voice.
You are here to serve and uplift the world
through the song of your soul... There are many ways this can happen...not everyone is destined to perform on stage, yet so many of us long to be ready and willing to use our voice and speak or sing from our hearts when the opportunities come. One of the greatest gifts of life is the gift of singing - be it on your own, or being able to bring your voice into the weaving of a community of voices lifted in song.
As your mentor, I am devoted to catalyzing your creative and vocal potential, your embodied empowerment. Together we create a safe, brave, and inspiring place of exploration and learning, elevating your expression to align with the song you came here to sing. I would be honored to support your journey, ~ Aimée "Mia" Kelley |
"I went to Mia out of a desire to be comfortable with my voice. I am not a singer, but I do have a desire to use my voice to share a body of work I am passionate about. Speaking often leaves me exhausted. I grew up with the message - ‘be quiet and do not use your voice to express yourself’. With Mia’s astute guidance I learned practices and methods to relax into my voice, how to breath in a way that best supports my vocal presence, how to release tension and how to ground both my energy and voice so I no longer speak from my throat, but from my soul. I ended my coaching sessions so impressed with the knowledge and wisdom Aimee has so carefully cultivated to support self-empowerment through fully accessing voice.”
~Suzy Carroll, Life Coach and Artist

"Nurturing, warm, loving, compassionate...held in Grace. Much different than I anticipated - so much more to feed the Soul! I loved the freedom to explore. This journey has me connecting more deeply to myself, and spirit. Technically, I am able to bridge gaps between my registers better, and I have increased comfort singing for others in an intimate setting! I am able to allow "the authentic one" to come out of hiding.
You have such a loving spirit and kind approach to teaching. Your somatic technique is brilliant. How wonderful you are! Thank you so very much. It was incredible." ~ Donna Bruer

Find Your Voice and Change Your Life!
What does Holistic Vocal Coaching mean?
I offer a unique blend of training and skills to create truly holistic vocal transformation. This is not only about your voice – this is about all of YOU…
o Body – A skilled singer is a vocal athlete. Over time, with practice, you will actualize your optimal vocal function through moderate physical training and basic holistic lifestyle upgrading all tailored to YOU, as well as professional bodywork & assessment.
o Mind – The mind is 90% of how singing works – athletes use the mind to condition their best performance, and so do we! Compassionate and insightful coaching transforms the mental & emotional aspects of your singing experience. You create a healthy relationship with your voice, a voice you BELIEVE in!
o Soul – All our work together is grounded in the understanding that inspiration to create sound and song are a healing gift to self and others. We approach singing as an expression and service that comes through us from a greater source, however we individually conceive that to be so. We create space inside us to be moved to sing by a divine mystery!
You will receive integrated teaching & coaching based on decades of my own research and studying the best vocal training in the world. From sacred sound lineages from around the world, to science driven vocal pedagogy, to healing practices, and performance development, the Soul Song Vocal Empowerment Method uplifts YOU as a powerful creative force on a path, offering the world the gifts you incarnated on Earth to give.
Do you want to live your life with an empowered voice? To you have dreams that require your vocal potential realized? Do you know there's a powerful singer inside you that just needs real support to emerge? Do you want more than anything to see your voice expressed in the world?
I work with a very limited number of students so I can give EACH ONE of you the BEST of what I have to offer. You arrive ready to engage in a system that is proven to create deep and profound change. Creating results with you is my definition of success!

"Four years ago, when I started working with Aimée, I was working too hard, and not able to develop the voice that many have told me I have. I was nearing retirement, and had set my heart on spending significant time on photography once I did. Little did I know that a retirement full of music, singing and joy awaited me. All thanks to Aimée.
I started lessons with her really just to see where I could go with my voice. I had sung in pubs and clubs in England before, but felt that I was capable of more. I really had a secret dream to sing as well as Luke Kelly and Tommy Makem. Kind of a lofty goal, but…
I committed to weekly lessons with Aimée for over two years, enjoying every minute of every lesson. She gave me the knowledge and the tools I needed to reach my potential, and now I am singing in a very popular local folk band (cutting our first CD), and have two other singing duos in development. In addition, I am finding many opportunities to sing solo. I love it! Aimée inspired me, and gave me the confidence to project myself confidently in front of an audience. I could not have done this without her."
~ Chris Gilbert, Singer and Storyteller
