FRANCISCA BRANCO – Senior Coach
During my studies and teaching practice, I recognised that singers and speakers faced many of the same challenges and strove for similar goals: stage presence, clarity, engagement, a mental and physical state that nurtures authentic expression. When I first experienced the method employed at LSW it immediately “clicked” with me as it was a perfect, natural extension and expansion of my work up until that point.
