 “If you are searching for the power within, through Vocal Awareness, you can find the sound of your soul.” – Quincy Jones
THE INSPIRING STORY OF JEFF EMIG
"Ever since I can remember, I had a really bad stutter/stammer. My earliest memories of speaking were of difficulty and embarrassment. Nothing seemed to work…"
But then Jeff began his Vocal Awareness Journey and something changed...
"Working the Vocal Awareness program and working with Arthur, doesn’t just change what you say and how you say it. He is one of those individuals who helps you see the best in yourself, that maybe you don’t see because we are always our own worst critic. Arthur is there, that voice that gives you the confidence that it takes to be your best."
– Jeff Emig, Hall Of Fame SuperMotocross Champion
Celebrating Over 60 Years of Vocal Awareness
Over the course of his career in the entertainment industry, his students have ranged from Oscars winners such as Sally Field and Angelina Jolie, to enduring on-screen stars as Sylvester Stallone, Pierce Brosnan and Arnold Schwarzenegger. A few of his many corporate clients have included Ernst and Young, Business Management Consultants, Deloitte and Touche, Financial Management Consultants, Lexus International, the Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, the NFL Network, FOX Network, ESPN, and many.
