Singing
This unique Voice Opening & Tune-up technique is for singers of all styles. It is a fine balance of breathing, using your source of power correctly and being present. It is truly a tune-up for your voice/body instrument This gives you the freedom to sing and express yourself in whatever style you desire.
As you develop and use this knowledge which is surprisingly simple, then you have the support to sing from your heart with a passion and openness that can only come from trusting your source of power. The ultimate goal is to have the courage to feel and sing from deep inside and to share the story of your song, from your own unique authentic sound.
Place your hand on your heart, feel the vibration as you sing. The sound changes and becomes full. I teach singers to find their own authentic sound & style.
I have over 30 years experience preparing singer’s and their songs to a high level for stage & recording. I am a singer/songwriter and have performed and recorded in several countries.
Songwriting & Performance
Speaking
Speak with a warm voice that is present.
When your voice is in balance with the true memory of how to use your breath and power correctly, then you have the freedom to speak your truth with your authentic voice.
I have heard many people say, “it feels like there is something in my throat” or “it hurts and feels scratchy when I speak too much.” This is a common example that the natural support for the voice has lost its memory, thus throwing the voice out of balance. So many people are using their speaking voice in a way that ultimately over time will result in a sharp tone, or alternately too soft. I can show you how to easily place your voice back into it’s natural placement and this makes a very big difference.
Dolli Melaine’s Voice Opening technique is designed to regain the balance and knowledge of what your voice/body instrument instinctually already knows. Awakening the memory of speaking from your power source and the placement of your voice in the center, will allow you to speak with your authentic voice.
Professional Speaking
For professional speaking, it is very useful to tune-up your voice/ body instrument before an engagement. I have worked with speakers who give symposiums for many days at a time and their voice gets tired. Even with one day the voice can become tired and overworked if it is not being supported properly.
Knowing good posture or what I call dynamic posture will give you the support to freely express in whatever way you desire. With the knowledge of good posture then you are in a position to support your voice with the breath and from your power source. When you have this support then you can relax and speak with confidence.
Heal Your Voice
Many have a deep trauma in their voice and there are solutions to help you re-awaken your natural healthy voice. I can help you to learn how to use your source of power so that you can support and bring your authentic voice back into a balanced healthy state. This is a process of learning how to breathe, using your power source correctly, along with the placement of your voice.
With this Voice Opening technique I can show you how to open and heal your voice. Many people live with speaking disorders, not realizing that they really can re-awaken the innocent memory of their natural voice.
I have also worked with many singers and speakers, who have over-stressed their voice. I will guide you through gentle voice/body exercises to release the pattern of trauma . When you use your power source and breathe correctly, this gives you the support needed to open and heal your voice for speaking and singing. I have seen profound positive changes in both the voice and the lives of my students.
Solutions “the basics”
Solutions “the basics” gives you the foundation and support needed to be able to express your authentic self. This brings you into a place of “knowing” and this is when your healthy confidence awakens. This is the freedom we all seek.
*Breathe When you awaken the full capacity of your breath, you are unlocking your source of power. You then have the power to open any blocks or trauma and let the river flow inside. It is easy to re-awaken the capacity and power of your breath and I can show you how.
*Dynamic Posture Awaken your knowledge of how to stand rooted into the earth and equally being lifted from above. There is a light that flows through your center. Learn to lift your lower abdomen upward. (your foundation). Awakening your breath & dynamic posture is life changing and life giving…bringing you into a place of “knowing”.
Reviews
”Dolli Melaine really helped me find my very own special sound in my voice and taught me how I can increase and optimize it. She showed me how I can get into my power and make it stronger and better. I never knew that i have that big range and power in my voice before.
Dolli combines perfectly her knowledge and experiences from her singing career, her coaching and her work as a yoga teacher which definitely brings you forward in every step you take.
For me Dolli is the best voice coach I ever met in my life, because she gave me more than just voice teaching and training, what I got is belief and trust in myself and that is something you need in this music business.”
Cataleya Fay, singer/songwriter (Bavaria, Germany) www.cataleyafay.com
“Dolli has helped me to go from being a struggling singer to finding something deep inside that just flies out of me. Words cannot express my gratitude for her unique, powerful techniques and deep spiritual & artistic knowledge.
Dolli is a true jewel of a woman, artist and teacher!”
Elena Rayo, California
“Dolli Melaine showed me how to use my voice in a very challenging but playful way. She was the perfect guide for an amazing physical and mental trip through my whole body, with the destination to locate my voice and to experiment and play with it in a new and unique way. It gives me a lot of confidence to have the privilege to know how to use this voice opening technique. It is a really valuable secret now open to all who really want to bring their highest vocal potential out in an effective way.”
Eugene Ziegler, Singer, Artist (Vienna, Austria)
“To me it is amazing the work that you do, and still I find it a little mysterious. But it is so real, so genuine, unique and simple at the same time. It feels like I am unfolding the petals of a hidden flower, hiding somewhere between my throat and my truest deepest being. And you, Dolli, happen to know how to access it, and how to transmit that inner knowing to me. My voice is becoming more free, more innocent, more velvety, and I am singing with greater and greater ease. Not to mention the compliments I am getting recently, which only tell me more of how genuine your work is.” Florencia, California
"Dolli is a gifted and inspiring teacher whom gently guides her students to connect with the authentic self and sing from that place" Her methods engage the entire physical body as the vocal instrument and focus the breath, sound vibration and visualization to expand the instrument to its greatest capacity. I have applied the gifts and insights I received from her to both my singing and dancing and have found them profoundly helpful. Like all great teachers, Dolli addresses more than scales and exercises, she provides a path for self exploration.”
Alison Clancy, singer/songwriter and dancer, New York
“I am thankful for the wonderful and inspiring time with Dolli Melaine. She has been assisting me in my inner development for four years and her “Yoga for the Voice” has put my voice back in its place, giving me the confidence and strength for my public speaking, in addition to uplifting my body and soul. As a native English speaker, she also supervised and coached me in the speech recordings on the CD that accompanies my book “Homeopathic Healing…Self Responsibility Replacing Fear.”

“Previously it was unthinkable for me to ask for something in a shop, so I always had to write what I wanted on a sheet of paper. Afterwards, I felt unhappy and weak. Now I do not have this problem anymore, as it has faded away. I am much more confident and enjoy talking. I have trained and learned that it is easy to use my speaking voice! Dolli Melaine’s voice opening method has helped me so that my severe problems with stuttering have disappeared and now I am much happier and more carefree in my life! Thank you very much Dolli!”

About Online Lessons - I have been giving online lessons for 5 years and I want to say that the development of my students virtually has really surprised me. It’s as if there are no distractions and they learn what I am teaching quicker. I love teaching in this way and feel close to whoever and whatever we are working on. I have a few students in California who continue to take the online lesson even when I am in the same town!
