- Rose Kimberly and Claire Williamson join Alexa Terry in Ep.162, to discuss the South West Voice Hub, a network they created to connect voice practitioners and singers in the South West of the UK. The hub aims to provide a local network for all things voice-related, including referrals, training, and support. They discuss the challenges of finding voice professionals in the South West and the importance of building a community in the region. The hub offers different membership tiers for practitioners, singers, and students, with benefits including access to forums, discounts on CPD events, and a profile on the website. They also mention their upcoming launch event, which will feature workshops and networking opportunities.

"The BAST course has given me so much confidence to be able to share knowledge and understanding about the voice, as well as helping me to gain a greater understanding of what being a teacher actually entails.” Danny Gortler, UK
“The BAST course was exactly what I was looking for and has been a tremendous help, not only in giving me the tools and confidence to teach, but it has also helped my own singing! I’m now getting comments at my gigs that I’m singing better than ever. Win-win! I’m now a vocal nerd in the making!” Nat Ripepi, Aust
“The BAST course gave an incredibly thorough overview of effective, healthy methods of improving a student’s singing ability. I really enjoyed better understanding the mechanism of sound production, and learning how to assess and problem solve in a very responsible, appropriate and practical way!” Rändi Fay, USA
