"Thanks so much for class. It has been awesome every single week! And thank you! I am really starting to see this as something I could do as a true passion, I know the road ahead is long and takes practice, but I have never had an art that lets me express myself and feel so free like this. It is truly amazing. I will most certainly be taking other classes with you."

"I cannot express my gratitude to you. I feel like I still have a lot to learn and grow into, but in a big way, you have helped me so much on that and given me more strength in my own thoughts of myself and my work. Not to mention the very tangible and practicable skills you taught me for working my voice to its most natural, honest, and clear. Also, you're such a great person to be around and work with!! Your sense of what's funny, what is interesting for entertainment, your jokes, your experience and knowledge of the work... It wouldn't have been half as fun if you weren't... you! :) " — Charlie M.
"This class was the absolute bomb. I’m so proud to have been a part of this very special troop. You all are amazing!
Thank you Michelle, and everyone, for creating and providing a safe and comfortable place in which to play, but thanks most of all, for your kindnesses and generosities. I am truly inspired and motivated to continue because of this group.
Excellent class, tremendously talented group, and a gifted and generous (patient) teacher. What else is there? I am Inspired by all of you to continue to explore, to invent, to create, and to learn and grow.
You have all taught an old timer like me that where we have been does NOT define where we are going, but merely adds color, flavor, and the opportunity to reflect and change course. You guys rock. Thank you for everything! Stay in touch. I may go dark on FB (I do not use Messenger), but you have my email and phone number. I’ll be here...trying to figuring out what to do next - so hit me up! Peace, and every blessing of success and happiness…"
