I believe that integrating mindfulness and performance techniques enhances the connection between the performer and their audience. Whether you are nervous to perform or a seasoned professional looking to make your next performance more engaging, my goal is to help you develop tools that can enrich your life on and off the stage.

About

Faye Stollery values fostering connection - where people feel seen, heard, and loved. Performances, presentations, or speeches are opportunities for meaningful connection. She teaches mindfulness and performance techniques to help build confidence and captivate audiences.

Faye has been performance coaching at the Conservatory of Music since 2014. With her background in theatre and meditation she offers practical and effective ways to navigate performance anxiety, connect with others, and find joy on and off the stage.

Her genuine loving nature creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, exemplifying her skill of integrating mindfulness into everyday life.

Faye began her journey with the Conservatory of Music as a voice student in 2004, performing in recitals, music festivals, and the Conservatory’s scholarship competition. She has been working in the Conservatory office since 2013 supporting music education and events.

She has directed and coached children’s musical theater productions and taught Confidence Building & Stage Presence workshops.

She works with children, teens, and adults preparing for speeches and monologues, singer-songwriters, and music students preparing for recitals, festivals, and competitions.

Lessons

Faye offers private, semi-private and group sessions online or in-person downtown Edmonton at the Alberta College Campus.
