“Jen de Ness is a very creative & dynamic music & drama coach as well as a talented musician. Jen helped me to tap into my voice & express myself through music, it was a very empowering process. For a long time i believed I couldn't sing, i had no prior training before I attended Jen's 'Voicedance Singers Workshops', along with thoroughly enjoying the process, the workshop culminated in a performance & CD launch.  Voicedance remains one of the highlights in my life & i will always be grateful for the opportunity of being part of a beautiful community & a memorable project. The workshops opened up many doors for me, personally & professionally through my work where public speaking is occasionally required. I look forward to participating in future workshops by Jen de Ness. With gratitude, Francesca Abbonizio” Student and Facebook Fan
