NEURO PERFORMANCE VOCAL TRAINING™
Train the system behind the voice.
A unique approach to vocal coaching in Antwerp for singers who want to train their instrument like athletes train their bodies.
The voice reflects how mind and body coordinate through the nervous system. When this system is balanced and functioning efficiently, the voice responds with greater ease, stability, and flexibility.
At VibrantVoice, I support singers with the same care and dedication found in high-performance sport. I don’t view the voice as an isolated instrument, but as part of an integrated system that can be trained and optimized from within.
By understanding the mind-body connection and by working with the principles of neuroplasticity, we can shift deeply ingrained patterns and release hidden blocks, creating lasting change - in both your voice and your life.
Use your nervous system as your guide
Whether you're fine-tuning your craft or dealing with tension, anxiety, or a lack of confidence and consistency, you'll receive tools, drills, and personalized strategies aligned with your goals and your nervous system.
Key areas of focus:
Optimizing breathing for stress reduction and vocal support.
Training the tongue, jaw, and throat to lower the brain’s 'threat' response.
Ear and eye drills to increase vocal range and endurance.
Addressing scar tissue or physical restrictions that may be holding you back.
Managing the impact of reflux, tinnitus, or sinus issues on your vocal health.
Move better, feel better, sing better.
From international stages to the building blocks of the voice
My career began in the world of classical music, with a Master’s degrees from the Royal College of Music in London and the Haute École de Musique in Lausanne. As a Belgian-Indian soprano, I built a career on some of Europe’s most prestigious stages, including the Dutch National Opera & Ballet and Opéra de Lausanne. Most recently, I had the honor of performing at the Royal Gala in Mumbai for the Belgian Economic Mission, in the presence of HRH Princess Astrid.
Yet, at the height of my career, I hit an invisible wall. Despite the external success, I felt a profound disconnection from my own instrument. The search for a solution that traditional vocal technique couldn't provide, is what eventually led me to the nervous system.
Driven to understand the "why" behind sudden vocal and performance blocks, I moved beyond conventional training into the realms of neurology and performance psychology. I became a certified Mental Performance Coach and specialized in Brain-Based Voice Training with Andrew Byrne (The Singing Athlete). I realized then that the voice isn't just a set of muscles; it’s an expression of our entire nervous system.
Today, through my work at VibrantVoice, I help singers and voice professionals rewire vocal patterns at the source - the brain - by integrating:
Voice science & pedagogy
Neurocentric training
Somatic tools
Mental performance coaching
Ultimately, my work is about helping you feel safe, steady, and supported in your voice, so you can sing with more ease, more presence, and more joy.

Coaching with Turiya is a lot of fun! It doesn’t feel like work at all. She takes you on a fascinating neurological journey of self-discovery. I experienced so many “aha” moments where my voice improved within seconds through her exercises and immediately felt lighter and freer. The techniques and exercises are so simple that I can even use some of them during a concert and notice an instant improvement and relief in my voice. I highly recommend Turiya and Neuro Performance Training to all singers!

“I highly recommend Turiya. My daughter and I had the privilege of having an in-person lesson together and was blown away by her warmth. Turiya makes you feel so comfortable with her holistic approach to singing. She really attunes to what her student needs to get the best results while helping you feel comfortable and confident at the same time. Truly amazing!”
