Specialised vocal training for singers, teachers, and professional speakers.
Instant online scheduling – no consultation required for voice lessons.
Vocal Foundations is the online destination for singers and speakers who need more from their voice. Whether you’re a singer stuck with the same technical issues, a teacher whose voice is tired and hoarse by mid-afternoon, or a professional who loses clarity and confidence when it matters most, you are not alone.
I’m Greg van Bergen, an Estill Master Trainer based in Melbourne, Australia. For over twenty years I’ve worked with singers, professional speakers, classroom teachers, and voice educators who want real autonomy over their voice. Using the Estill Voice Model, we look directly at the mechanics of what your vocal folds, breath, and resonance are actually doing. We build precise coordination so you can sing or speak with greater freedom, stamina, and control.
The work is practical, clear, and focused on helping you truly understand your voice instead of struggling against it. You’re welcome here no matter your background or starting point. If you’re ready to take ownership of your voice and develop its full capability, I’d be happy to work with you.
The Vocal Foundations approach: Flow. Vibration. Resonance.
Grounded in science, refined by experience.
Your Voice, Your Way.
I look directly at the science of the voice to return creative control to your hands. I help you bridge the gap between technical craft and personal expression, turning mechanical certainty into the artistic freedom to be heard exactly as you intend. In short, I'm here to help what’s in your head actually come out of your mouth, doing the clever stuff you want it to do without you having to second-guess it. Discover Flow, Vibration and Resonance in the way you use your voice.

Flow: We’ve all experienced a physical fight, flight, or freeze response, especially in situations where it matters most. Breath flow keeps us alive. I help you understand the why and how behind the muscular defaults that cause your throat to close up under mental and physical stress. We then move into practical exercises to physically change those patterns, developing the long-lasting skills needed to find the freedom in your voice use.
ONLINE VOCAL TRAINING
Vibration: When breath is free to flow, all the cool stuff happens in the "voice box". Dynamics, pitch, and timbre are all crafted by adjusting the positions of our vocal folds and vocal tract. We translate this kinaesthetic awareness into your artistry through targeted exercises, whether you’re a singer who wants to "belt" safely, or a speaker who needs to change the emotional intensity of your words for impact.

Resonance: Your voice is personal. While "vocal resonance" is the amplification and enrichment of your sound as it vibrates through your throat, mouth, and nasal cavities, your sound doesn’t stop there. It is heard and experienced by others. By developing your muscular flexibility, you learn to trust your instrument, ensuring your voice is received as you intended, and you are heard and valued every time you speak or sing.
Whether you are a singer hitting a technical ceiling, a teacher struggling with vocal fatigue, or a professional speaker who needs to command a room with confidence—you are in the right place.
My approach is built on the Estill Voice Model, moving beyond vague imagery to give you a clear, practical understanding of how your voice actually works. I help you replace guesswork with predictable results, building a foundation of freedom, stamina, and total vocal control.
My goal is to provide you with the tools to become your own best teacher.
