TIFFANY VEYS
Head Vocal Coach – Founder Mind The Voice-methode – Driving force of Mind The Voice – Artist Coach
Tiffany Veys is head vocal coach of Mind The Voice and has more than 20,000 hours of individual coaching experience. She is one of the top vocal coaches in Belgium, founder of the Mind The Voice-method, (co) author of the books ‘Mind The Voice – Zo leer je zingen!‘ (Lannoo 2012) and ‘De Stembijbel‘ (Mind The Voice 2015) and co-developer of the Mind The Voice SOVT-Trainer. She is a Master in music, jazz and light music and the driving force behind the voice institute Mind The Voice, which she founded together with her husband, partner in crime Kris Van Roy.
She inspires and coaches A-artists from Belgium, professional singers and artists in the making to their ultimate goal on a daily basis. She also hosts training courses, master classes and lectures on the Mind The Voice method for singers, vocal professionals, speech therapists & vocal coaches in Belgium and the Netherlands, with the core topic: the connection between voice, body & mind. Together with Kris Van Roy she leads the Mind The Voice team consisting of vocal coaches, producers and songwriters and they work closely with a paramedical team to get the best out of everyone’s voice. She is also a guest teacher “Voice coaching” at the Thomas More Hogeschool Mechelen (LEON) and she gives workshops and refresher courses “Voice training” in schools and school communities all over Flanders for teachers.
Tiffany has a holistic view of the voice. The voice is influenced by the well-being of body ànd mind. Through Mind The Voice she wants to give a new meaning to the concepts “voice coaching” and “singing lessons” and offer a total package in vocal coaching. As a vocal coach you can best compare her with a personal coach, specialized in the speaking and singing voice. After all, speaking and singing professionally is a top-class sport and, just like a top-class sport, deserves regular intensive personalized training. Vocal coaching sessions according to her method are fully customized and in addition to the regular voice and singing exercises also include voice massage, trigger point voice massage, kinesio taping for the voice, cranio sacral therapy for the voice, but also heart coherence training, mindfulness techniques and mental coaching. In addition, there is an intensive course concerning breath support training, optimizing the voice color, training voice effects, performance coaching, microphone techniques and stage attitude. The common thread remains the link between voice, body and mind. After all, when voice, body and mind are one, the artist can fully do what he/she has to do: sing with feeling, make music and perform.
Tiffany breathes and lives her “métier”. She continues to train in the latest techniques and methods from the world of the voice and she constantly develops new techniques that can be used in voice and singing practice. She is a vocal coach with an intensive and transparent collaboration between artists, artist management and their music producers. She is happy to help you achieve your ultimate goal! After all, for her there is no greater professional satisfaction than being able to coach the artists and people she works with towards their goals and to see them “shine” in what they are good at. Her motto? “Be the best version of you!”
