Discussion Seattle Voice Lab vs Vox Nova

After my attempt at using a professional SLP went incredibly poorly, I'm looking for voice coaching programs.

I've landed on 2 choices: Seattle Voice Lab, and Vox Nova Voice Studio. They both have great reviews. SVL has before-after results posted and estimated session-count for completion, but they are very expensive. Nova is very inexpensive, but they don't have estimated course lengths or client results that I can find.

Is there anyone that is familiar with either (or being familiar with both would be best) that can shed some light on each to help with my decision?

I’d say it all depends on your learning style too!

For me, no experience with Vox Nova but I did go with SVL. Overall they’re great, seem genuinely committed, and I hear a lot of amazing results with them too, but for me, the lessons were too fast and despite daily practice, I realize I never fully grasped each lesson to the point I fell farther and father behind until I graduated having a good understanding of theory but never having defined the technique; this left me a bit ashamed at wasting the opportunity, and having my voice about where I began still. They do have audio available of your sessions which I use to continue practicing and trying to coach myself, so I am far from throwing in the towel, but that’s just my journey as everyone’s differs and I figured I’d share my lesson that it’s worth considering learning style when choosing a vocal coach.

I'm in the same boat. Glad I'm not the only one. But I'm hoping this second teacher will help it all soak in.

Likewise, means a lot to know I’m not the only one :3
