Hello Fellow Change makers!

Whether you are a beatboxer who wants to make it to the World Championships stage or someone who has to make speeches in their business frequently, I want to help you become a more confident, effective communicator!

I have been beatboxing since I was ten years old and since then have become the first ever 2x World Beatbox Champion, 3x Loop Station Champion and 3x Beatrhyme Champion. I fell in love with beatboxing because it allowed me to find the power of my voice and gave me confidence that has crossed over into my personal life. Now before you think I was born with this spirit, let me go back to my first ever 6th-grade chorus audition...

I feverishly practiced "Colors of the wind" from Pocahontas for days on end and was feeling like nothing could stop me. Then came the audition... I had no fear in my body until the very moment the piano started to play. I started shaking, I looked like a deer stuck in headlights, and when a sound did come out, it cracked like a prepubescent boy. This moment was probably one of the worst days of my young life. After that, I swore off singing for years. My senior year of high school I was in Chorus, but I never sang. Everyone knew I was lip singing; it was that bad. If you were to tell that girl that she would go on to become the 3x Beatrhyme Champion and sing on stages all over the world, she would have laughed right in your face. Beatboxing made begin to feel comfortable with my voice. When I actually thought about how I was creating the trumpet with my mouth, I realized that I was singing but just making a different shape with my mouth! So why had I been so embarrassed by my voice all these years?

Confidence is a practice. You need to be actively pushing yourself out of your comfort zone to realize that there is nothing to fear. When we become comfortable with the uncomfortable, then nothing can stop us. As someone who has been down that journey, I want to help you grow the most empowered version of yourself that you can be. As both beatboxers and people, we should think of our selves as artists. This means having a message that you believe in and will stand for.

I am so grateful to perform and speak on stages all around the world. I want to give other people that chance as well. I have been an educator for the last eight years and honestly believe that I am the best suited to help you reach your goals. I believe in you, and I am so excited to help you on your journey!

Much love,

Kaila
