"Sing Fearlessly at Sea" Seamlessly Aligns with Explora Journey's Philosophy of Luxury Cruising
Explora redefines cruising.
Sing Fearlessly redefines singing.
Where enrichment and entertainment merge, inspiring guests to learn and feel the joy of singing.
Teaching cruise computer classes
for 21 years makes me very well-versed on luxury hospitality, cruise culture, ship protocol and most importantly, the luxury guest mindset.
My 'INSPIRE-EXCITE-IGNITE' method is a powerful blend of expert vocal training, fear-busting techniques, secrets of the stars and a dash of humor. My teaching style blends heart, innovation, and a whole lot of fun, guiding each person to express themselves freely and confidently.
Imagine onboard field trips. Immersive moments that make unforgettable memories. Sing under the stars with an acoustic guitar, sunset sing-alongs poolside with champagne and appetizers, or stand on a stage during downtime to feel the thrill of being a performer. We can create ideas together. It’s all about connection, creativity and joy. One song at a time.
I have created "Sing Fearlessly at Sea"to cater to the cruising lifestyle. Together with my unique approach of curing fear of singing, blended with the ambience and philosophy of Explora Journeys it's guaranteed to make it a signature part of guest enrichment.
Guests love to watch and listen to entertainers sing in bars or onstage. Most secretly wish they could sing but fear it. When it comes to singing solo, only the very brave or very tipsy step up to a mic.
Sing Fearlessly bridges this gap in a very entertaining and enriching way, where they learn to sing with no fear.
Its the thrill of a rollercoaster for the soul when students begin to achieve things they once thought were impossible.
I have created a course customized to teaching onboard for guest enrichment which is bothin a class, with fun extra-cirricular moments

"You are a lovely soul. I have been wanting to take voice lessons for decades and haven't manifested the right teacher, until I met you. It is divine intervention. I'm excited to start this journey together. We are going to have some great storytelling through our music."
