Testimonials

Received a callback after just 1 session!!

Working with Gracia was an amazing and eye opening experience, she was able to help me develop my American accent by first thinking about character, movement, and body. Primarily her approach was placing importance on the general ‘vibe’ and feeling of what it means to Be an American in terms of culture. This really helped me, in terms of remembering that accent was only one part of the equation. I ended up auditioning and getting a recall and I have Gracia to thank for this! I would highly recommend and lovely to work with.

Client Testimonial

Communication is a fundamental aspect of human existence.

Everyone possesses the inherent capability to convey thoughts in their own voice. Yet, when communication becomes hindered, the experience can be both overwhelming and frustrating. Although thoughts and ideas abound in our minds, the connection between brain and mouth may falter, impeding expression. This obstacle can evoke feelings of inadequacy, isolation, and helplessness.
