Singer in the Spotlight: Ella Glasgow Binion

This gal right here has a story to tell!!

She’s a formally trained singer with an impressive resume, and then…

…her voice started acting up on her. She noticed it was harder to make sound come out in her middle range where it used to be effortless. She felt as though her middle range was constricted and she was tiring out very quickly – like, after just one song.

In October, I offered a seat at my monthly Master Class inside No Limits Academy to anyone who signed up for my priority notification list for the release of my new book, Never Lose Your Voice Again: The SECRET to Unlimited Vocal Health™ for Singers, Actors, and Speakers. Ella was one of the first to sign up for that because she was hopeful I could help her out.

She came to class, shared her struggle, and I asked her to sing a couple lines. I heard and saw the problem instantly and asked her to try it again making a small change in her technique. Her answer made everyone laugh: “That’s ALL we had to do??”

Yep. That’s it. That tweak in her technique – which will need to become part of her muscle memory through practice – was all she needed to get the strength and power back in her voice as well as giving her the endurance she once had. I checked in with her recently, and after telling me the technique adjustment we made was “LIFE” and that her performance that weekend went really well, here’s what else she had to say:

“Can I tell you what the last vocal instructor I worked with tried to tell me a few months ago? She basically looked at me as if I’d never had any technique in my life and said it would take MONTHS…maybe a year to get it back together. She never once said tuck in the session I had with her (nor did the other coach I worked with for a few more sessions). They never looked at my support. Clearly, imma just be callin you from now on…”

Then she added:

“Thank you. I honestly felt so low after that happened and I’ve felt so depressed about my voice in this last year and a half knowing it had to be something simple that I was missing. I was too close to see it myself. That part I knew. The best thing is, I’m actually considering singing again…”

You guys, this stuff WORKS. It’s not always a simple little fix (and even simple fixes take time to master and become part of your body’s muscle memory), but it CAN be fixed.

If you want to make your vocal fatigue struggles disappear like Ella, let’s talk.

Katti…helped me realize that my voice will always be there, and I just need to trust that it knows what to do. The biggest change was our work with how forward my belt is going. I had learned how to do it before, but something wasn’t clicking for me to keep it forward. Katti listened to my fear about having true power in my voice and allowed me to have a safe place to start the work to let myself be heard. I ended up belting a note I had tried to… belt for 10 years!

I feel like I finally learned the secret of singing I’ve been looking for all my life! I always felt like my teachers didn’t quite “get” my voice and there was something either I really wasn’t getting or they really were not teaching. Now I know what it is! Thank you Katti!!

Sheri P.
Singer

I’m most excited to know the difference between legit and belt voice and practice choosing how to sing and speak intentionally in a way that is healthiest for me.

Renana
Singer

Now that I have had that hour session I know how to overcome my straining and relax my throat when singing up high. The way Katti teaches, the illustrations she gives, and the exercises she uses help me to understand in a way I’d never thought about before…Knowing how quickly she fixed my problem, I feel extremely confident that she would be able to help anyone else…

Katti is BRILLIANT!!! I never thought I would be able to belt, but I was definitely proven wrong! Thanks to my ONE LESSON with Katti I have just landed a role in “Shout! The Mod Musical” and will be healthily belting my face off!

Chelsea A.
Singer

I use to think my voice just couldn’t sing certain notes in certain ways, but that is completely false! I wish I had known these techniques back when I was struggling and performing every day. And knowing how to sing in my uncomfortable areas without hurting my voice is amazing. I feel like I could sing almost anything now!!

Garie Jean

I believe you can always improve your craft, so for the past few years I’ve been working with internationally acclaimed vocal teacher Katti Power.

Beth B.
2019 KWC World Champion

I’m really not sure where I would be without you. You have given me such confidence in so many areas and have given me the skills to take my performing to the next level.

Julie R.
Actress & Singer

I can sing higher again and I’m more confident in my belting abilities, as well as my breath support!

Nikki S.
WKT World Champion

Thank you so much for believing in me and for helping me become who I am today… You changed my life Katti.

Mikko B.

I had the honor of working with Katti right before the Talent Quest National Competition. In only a few short lessons she had me miles above where I started out. Her methods help you stretch your range while keeping your vocal health. She continuously helped me get better each time we met.

Kristen H.
Competitive Singer

No joke, Katti Power is a complete and utter bad ass. She’ll turn you into one as well if you give her the chance.

Steve A.
Competitive Singer

Thank you, Katti. I’ve learned so much from you; no words can express my gratitude!

Alfreda
4th Place National Competitor

I’m so excited – I got the role I told you I was called back for (the initial audition consisted of a monologue and my singing “That’s Rich,” which I had worked with you in my VIP session)! Thank you so much, Katti, for your training! I’m thrilled, and will continue to make the efforts to sing without fear and apply the proper technique so I can sing without getting fatigued.

Nancy B.
Opera Singer & Actress

I’m singing songs I did not think I would ever be able to sing!

Kate
Singer

Katti is an unforgettable voice instructor. I came to Katti when I was 18 years old because I wanted to improve my musical theatre sound. I had absolutely no clue how to belt before beginning [Unlimited Vocal Health™] and when I graduated from Circle in the Square Theatre School in New York City four years later, I was the top belter in my class. The more lessons I took the more my confidence as a singer and an all around performer grew.

Joanna
Actress

Katti Power is bar-none, hands-down, one of the very best voice teachers out there. I’ve been singing for 23 years, and have had several teachers over the years, from NYC to LA. Many of my teachers have been good, but I learned more in one lesson with Katti than I did several months with other teachers.

Jennnifer B.
Singer & Actress

[Katti] is the best singing coach I've ever had. I love working with her because she's so supportive, she has such a great ear, and she can get to the heart of any of my problems right away. She's positive, very knowledgeable, and most of all - one of the biggest reasons I would highly recommend Katti is that she's a great human being.
