"I've worked with Susan many times, from her teacher-training to become a Designated Linklater Teacher, to her contribution as assistant director and movement coach on several productions that I directed. Susan Main has a secret gift, and she secretly delivers it to the actors who participate in her classes or warm-ups, while apparently she is just lightly and humbly teaching the exercises, even with a little hint of self-mockery. The actors get touched somewhere deep and react by opening themselves, which most often leads to brilliant performances."

"Susan Main is a magical combination of sensitivity and practicality. She comes to training the human voice with a breadth of knowledge that has been selectively shared by some of the world's most eloquent and versatile teachers of body and voice. Coupled with her curiosity for understanding humanity, Susan is equipped far beyond many who might assume to take on the intricate task of nurturing and developing the human voice."

"Last year, I had the great pleasure and the great privilege to study with Susan in Rome. It's one of the most important and great experiences of all my life. She taught me how important breathing is, she gave me the joy to breathe. Susan stimulated my curiosity a lot and allowed me to know more deeply my voice and made me understand how important is to take care of it. Her work fed my heart, my soul, my spirit and every single muscle of my body. We worked a lot but we also had a great time working together. Everytime I think about her work I can feel my heart full of emotions and joy. I learned 3 key words for my life I want to share with the world:

BREATHE... SIGH OF RELIEF... HUH HUH."

"I spent the Fall of 2007 in New York city, pursuing voice training at the Linklater Center and privately with Susan Main. Susan and I worked together 3 times a week for several weeks, and the work never ceased to be challenging, fascinating, profound, and fun. Susan is not only passionate, intelligent and has a deep understanding of the Linklater Method, but she is also a wonderful and generous human being. I highly recommend Susan Main to lead you through the delicate and powerful road of freeing your voice."

"This work with Susan simply transcends any thought or idea about the voice, the body, even about my place in the world. In a subtle, yet complex manner you are asked to accept your life as lived before you with the intention of rediscovering the voice that has always lived within you. And if I am not making any sense--Wonderful! That is the beauty of working with Susan. Her graceful and passionate illumination of this work, her use of wildly stimulating imagery guiding you into and along this journey, and the necessary trust that she instills in you as a student, has allowed me to discover a realm of experience that is so alive and present, one cannot help but be moved by watching a person so in themselves, yet so fully engaged with the world. This place of existence is essential for the artist, but also for anyone whom breathes. I know that this work is crucial for my development as a human being and an artist, but I also know that it is Susan who has led me to and through this doorway of discovery."

"Susan's knowledge and observant eye have helped me identify physical and emotional tensions that hinder my work. More importantly, she has given me tools that empower me, and help me to have greater range instrumentally and vocally as a storyteller. I would suggest her to any artist who wants to enrich and deepen their communicative abilities."
