Welcome to the 2025 IVTOM Hybrid International Voice Conference!
We look forward to meeting in person again after three years of virtual conferences! But this time, we are also offering a remote attendance option for those who can’t come in person.
From IVTOM President Dean Kaelin:
#1. To keep Voice teachers appraised of the latest technology and highest education in the world regarding the voice, and
#2. For association and connection with other like minded teachers.The Ivtom Conference accomplishes both of these goals. We have invited 4 world class vocal educators to present the most recent knowledge and education about the voice, plus we will hear from several of our Ivtom Mentor teachers, who we feel are some of the top voice teachers in the world, to give us practical application experience we can use in our studios.Plus, we will mingle and get to know other teachers who are also striving to be the best voice teachers we can be!One great bonus is that we will be in beautiful Salt Lake City this year and in the beautiful month of October. Feel free to come early or stay late so you can take a drive into the mountains and experience the beauty for yourself.We look forward to being with you and learning together!
