ABOUT ME

My recipe for life: movement + awareness + rest + humor. Stir slowly, bake until easy. It's that simple.

EXPERIENCE

Everything I do is designed to help you feel more comfortable inside your own skin. 

Known as “the Voice Whisperer”, Sharon (she/her) is the Founder and Director of Flight Performing Arts, Creator of The Elusive Voice™ online singing course, and cheering squad for countless professional voice users. Sharon has helped introduce freedom and mobility to people with chronic pain, arthritis, as well as people recovering from injury, trauma, and surgery through her somatic education practice, and has been teaching private voice and performance technique for over 2 decades. Possessing unique insight and skill into the physical organization of the speaker and singer, she can assess and correct tension patterns that hinder expression and proper vocal technique quickly and effectively, allowing each student to connect to the embodied energy of their performance, sell their message, invest audiences emotionally, and convert hearts and minds.

Sharon holds degrees from Ithaca College in vocal performance, sociology and theater, certification from Feldenkrais Resources in Manhattan, as well as Professional Certification from The Feldenkrais Guild® of North America (2006). She has studied childhood neurodevelopment and somatics extensively and volunteers at the Clinic with Sheryl Field at the Field Center for Children's Integrated Development. Sharon has had the distinct honor of serving on the faculty at Ithaca College, and the Community School of Music and Arts, and as a guest lecturer at Cornell University. She is a regular theatrical director and music director with the Ithaca School District.
