Linklater Center

With voice in the name, I expected it involve learning to sing. It was more like Qigong. Nice if that's what you're looking for.

Loved this session with Andrea! She really is an amazing teacher!

Great course. Linklater tools in my voice box are transforative and so was our teacher Andrea!

It was a really good introductory course with a great instructor! Wanting to explore options for addressing persistent spoken-voice issues, I took a chance and signed up for the Linklater Voice & Feldenkrais Workshop. My expectations were low, but my mind was open. I am so happy I took the chance. The instructor, Tamala Bakkensen, was wonderful. She immediately connected with the class as a whole and with each student individually. Her knowledge of the Linklater/Feldenkrais methods was impressive as was her ability to bring those methods to life without overintellectualizing the process. I highly recommend this course!

Really good warm up for those of us who have had training in Linklater. The teacher brings her own wonderful way of connecting meaning to the techniques/

The greatest

Nice intro to Linklater technique. Felt like a very safe space to experiment and explore. Would have loved it more if I felt more prepared to lead myself through structured exercises and warmups.

Benjamin is a solid instructor and has great energy. The class was less technical than I expected but was enjoyable nevertheless.

Great instructor and great class! She take her tome to explain to you so you can do the movements and exercises the right way! Highly recommend.

Great class to elasticize and free your jaw, tongue and larynx of tensions. It really helps to prepare for an audition or a show or just to maintain strong vocal performance.

This was an outstanding class. Tamela is one of the best instructors I've ever had for Voice and Feldenkrais. It was an honor to work with her. If you ever get the opportunity to take this class, do it! The transformation you will experience is nothing short of amazing. I give it my strongest endorsement.

This was an outstanding class. I never imagined that I would get as much out of it as I did. Tamala is one of the best movement and voice instructors I've ever trained with. She gives thoughtful and insightful feedback and encourages her students every step of the way. She creates a safe and nurturing environment for her students to take risks without the fear of being berated or criticized. She is patient, kind, and passionate about the craft of acting. Tamara is a rare gem. I cannot recommend her class strongly enough.
