Improving volume, clarity, intonation, tone, and expression

Speech, Voice, and Wellbeing

Kim Churton as the instructor for our new Speech, Voice, and Wellbeing class which will focus on improving volume, clarity, intonation, tone, and expression through education, exercises, and practical strategies.

She has a background in speech language therapy and has worked in this area in NZ and in the UK; specifically with older populations, and those with neurological conditions.

In addition, she has a Masters in Health Management – and is a qualified pilates instructor! We are super excited having Kim offer this fun and therapeutic class to the people we support at MSPC.
