Meet Your Coach
Hello! So glad you’re here! I’m excited to coach you on your voice and help you improve and gain confidence in your worship leading! So often we get up there to lead worship, and all we can think about is our voice… what’s going wrong, what’s already gone wrong, that high note that’s coming up—it’s so distracting and frustrating! I want you to be able to think about everything except what’s going wrong in your voice—I want you to be able to focus on God… on worshipping passionately and authentically, leading your congregation and listening to the Holy Spirit! I’m excited to share what I’ve learned (and continue to learn!) along my journey of vocal development and worship leading—and I pray that it will be a blessing to you on your journey!

“Charmaine has equipped me with the knowledge, training, tools and support that I need to succeed in improving vocally. With dedication and consistency I’ve seen a huge improvement in my voice, and it’s only been a couple of months. WOW. My voice no longer hurts after Sunday, it sounds stronger and more controlled, and my confidence has grown! What a gift she has been. I’m beyond excited to see what the next few months and years will bring with her guidance.”
Jasmine B.

“The Worship Vocalist has been an invaluable tool for me this past year. I have learned how to do things I didn’t even realize could be taught. Charmaine is a talented singer and worship leader, but she’s also a gifted teacher. She is able to explain concepts simply and understandably so that I can practice and grow as a vocalist and a worship leader. I love her passion and wisdom as she teaches and leads with the aim of glorifying God as first priority. Thank you so much Charmaine!”
