Joy Hermalyn
Biography
I am an experienced Voice Teacher as well as a professional Broadway actor/opera singer. Currently I am a Voice Professor for Musical Theatre at Yale University, Kean University in Union, NJ and I specialize in Private College Audition Prep. I maintain an ongoing private studio in NY/NJ/Skype, with students from Alaska to France. I am also a certifed Yoga instructor, a student of Feldenkreis, fluent in French and Italian and an expert in dialects and healthy screaming. As a member of AEA and SAG-AFTRA since childhood, I am able to help my students navigate the 'business' with tools for relaxation, relief of performance anxiety, audition skills, repertoire selection, and general show business questions. I offer technical lessons for all genres of music and put an emphasis on the individual person's voice, needs and strengths. You leave my studio energized, ready to sing more, confident and excited to use your unique voice for stage, screen, or presentation. Please visit JoyHermalyn.com!
