About Gemma Milburn
My Singing Journey
As a young singer, I struggled with vocal tension, a shrinking range, and intense performance anxiety. At times, I feared I’d lost my talent for good. Finally, at 38, I discovered that an undiagnosed tongue tie was at the root of many of these issues. This experience made me passionate about helping singers overcome similar challenges.

Our Mission: A Studio Built on Values
At Gemma Milburn’s Vocal Coaching Studio, we celebrate individuality, collaboration, and acceptance. We believe that talent isn’t magic—it’s the result of commitment, thoughtful training, and consistent practice.
Everyone who wants to sing deserves the chance to do so. With the right support and guidance, anyone can unlock their potential and become an exceptional singer.
This boutique studio prioritizes quality over quantity. By keeping client numbers low, I ensure I can dedicate the time, energy, and focus needed to help every singer succeed.
My Passion for Teaching
Now, with certifications in Vocal Health, Buteyko Breathing, and Vocal Pedagogy, I’m equipped to guide singers with an approach that’s rooted in evidence-based methods and a genuine love for teaching. As a member of The SpeakEasy Cooperative and an avid reader, I bring my commitment to vocal health, pedagogy, science, and fun to each session.
My coaching draws from vocal science, breathing techniques, and holistic approaches to empower your voice from every angle. I’m trained in or influenced by:
Vocal Health
Acoustic Science
Buteyko Breathing
Myofunctional Therapy
…and more.
What You Can Expect from Coaching
The art of singing is about more than just technique—it’s about self-expression and connecting with your whole self. Here, you’ll find a safe, welcoming space to experiment, explore, and grow. As your coach, I don’t have all the answers, but I will provide a framework, tools, and encouragement to guide your journey.
In return, I ask for an open heart, a willingness to collaborate, and a commitment to the process. Together, we’ll explore new possibilities for your voice.
This studio is also committed to creating an inclusive environment. We actively work to understand and respect different life experiences, and we stand against all forms of discrimination, including racism, homophobia, misogyny, and bullying.
Every voice deserves to be heard, and every singer deserves to feel valued.
A Bit More About Me
When I’m not working with singers, I love long walks with my Jack Russell, Roxy, strength training, and singing with my covers band. These interests remind me to keep life (and singing!) balanced, grounded, and fun.
