“Don’t worry about failure. Worry about the chances you miss when you don’t even try.” – Sherman Finesilver

Welcome to Mille Studios – a creative safe space for anyone who has the desire to learn and/or share their artistic/musical knowledge and experience. I have been blogging since 2009 in the area of health and wellness (supplements and fitness), and in May of 2022, I started the Mille Studios blog in an effort to support my students with a holistic approach to learning vocal techniques as well as the importance of everything that involves giving a complete performance. For the past 20 years, I have performed in every community that I have had the pleasure of being a part of, and I have also greatly enjoyed teaching along the way while raising three beautiful happy children, who also share a deep love and passion for music with me.

I am thrilled to finally begin this new blog venture with the official launch of Mille Studios. What will make this blog unique is the holistic approach to music as I will incorporate my health and wellness knowledge from my Kinesiology background, as well as fitness training to truly support my students in a holistic approach to being the best version of ourselves. The goal is to have a lifelong journey of singing by taking care of your instrument, body, mind, and soul. In this blog I will share my journey with you as well as tips on how to:

Teaching as well as performing are my absolute passions and I am truly honoured to be able to elevate others in their expression of voice, whether I have students in elementary school exploring their voice for the first time, or work with the well-experienced singer-songwriter who wants to take it to the next milestone, Mille Studios is ready for you to contact us to book your complimentary consultation for fit.

A bit about Mille Studios

Mille Studios aims to be student-focused – it is really that simple. While we are ready with lessons, techniques, and knowledge, we first want to get to know you and your aspirations. We first work together to find a plan that suits your goals, and expectations. Mille thrives in collaborating to assist students in building not only their vocal technique but also their performing platform. It is thrilling to watch individuals hone and build their voice, as well as their confidence in performing.

When I am not teaching, I continue to perform throughout Vancouver and share and express myself through voice and visual arts (painting, drawing, and mixed media). I love to help others tap into their passions and this is what Mille is all about… Finding your voice through the arts, and ultimately finding your power to make the world a little brighter.

Where does Mille Studios’ name come from and what is its meaning?

This seems like a great place to start, from the beginning. When coming up with the name for a studio for the arts, I didn’t want to narrow in on only voice, painting, drawing, or performing because this studio is about all of my passions, and Mille in French means 1000… and on a simple level, this is the meaning behind the name. This studio embraces the 1000’s of things I love to do or be a part of when it comes to the arts.

But wait there’s more! Next is that I consider the number 1000 to be my Angel number… Angel numbers have been defined as, a series of repeating digits like 222, or 888, etc… and if you are noticing the same series of numbers in different places, some people think this is a divine message coming to you from the universe, God, higher power or whatever power you believe in. For me, the number 1000 seems to follow me, making my world brighter, and therefore, it has become my favourite number. For others, Angel number 1000 has been said it symbolizes that great things are to come when you put forth your best efforts with good intentions.

I thank you for reading and I look forward to building this studio together.
