甜甜自4岁起开始学习舞蹈,9岁开始学习钢琴。11岁考入北京舞蹈学院附中歌舞专业,开始系统学习声乐、舞蹈、和表演。本科毕业于北京舞蹈学院音乐剧表演专业。硕士毕业于美国迦太基学院音乐剧声乐教学法专业(M.M. in Musical Theatre Vocal Pedagogy),是国内首批音乐剧声乐教学法硕士研究生。师从音乐剧声乐教学法大师 Corinne Ness 博士、身心联合启发式教学大师 Jeremy Mossman、原百老汇版音乐剧《歌剧魅影》 女一号 Lorian Schwaber(以上三位老师均为EMT)。自研究生开始,致力于研究--如何以EVT为声乐教学的科学理论基础,并结合人脑神经动力学习的规律(Motor Learning)进行音乐剧声乐教学,从而提升音乐剧声乐教学的效率。

2016年,甜甜受“北京市人才培养计划”委派到美国迦太基学院访学,首次接触Estill嗓音训练。开始跟随Corinne Ness, Jeremy Mossman等EMT,系统学习EVT嗓音训练。2019年,在EVT工作坊中与EVT国际主席 Kimberly Steinhauer结识,开始跟随Kim学习并备考。2022年,甜甜成为中国大陆首位Estill嗓音训练大师(Estill Master Trainer);同年,甜甜与Estill国际合作,组织Estill线上基础课程 (Foundation Course of Estill Voice Training) 的中文版翻译及校对,发布在EVT在线学院。

从2022年至今,甜甜和EVT国际主席Kimberley Steinhaur已联合举办了两届“中国线上EVT融合版第1&2级工作坊”,甜甜作为主办方、课程翻译、以及小组带练老师参与其中。2024年我们即将以同样的形式开展第三届线上EVT融合版第1&2级工作坊。在此过程中,甜甜得以与奥地利的EMCI Patrik Thurner、亚洲首位EMCI,日本的Yukie Ina 、英国最受欢迎的EMCI之一的Tim Richard、以及Leon Trayman等EMCI合作,观摩学习他们的教学方式,并为他们进行实时翻译。

甜甜于2018年创办了「甜甜的音乐剧小屋」线上教学品牌,并在北京、上海、深圳三地分别举办过三轮音乐剧声乐工作坊,将“EVT嗓音训练的通用理论”跟“音乐剧声乐教学”相结合;2021年,甜甜在中国传媒大学教授音乐剧声乐课程,并将“EVT嗓音训练的通用理论”融入到教学内容中;2022年,甜甜举办“第四轮音乐剧声乐工作坊”,首次推出为期三个月的“学期制”声乐工作坊。在这种长线教学中,更好的实现了学练结合,并进一步把“EVT嗓音训练的通用理论”跟“音乐剧声乐教学”相结合。

作为一位终身学习者,甜甜目前正在学习与备考EMCI,希望可以早日成为中国大陆的首位EMCI,为Estill嗓音训练法在中国的生根发芽贡献微薄之力。


Tiantian started learning dance at the age of 4 and piano at the age of 9. At the age of 11, she was admitted to the Sing and Dance Program of the affiliated middle school of Beijing Dance Academy and began to systematically study voice, dance, and performance. She graduated from Beijing Dance Academy with a Bachelor's Degree in Musical Theatre Performance. She received her M.M. in Musical Theatre Vocal Pedagogy from Carthage College in the United States and was among the first group of M.M. students in China to specialize in Musical Theatre Vocal Pedagogy. She studied under Dr. Corinne Ness, Jeremy Mossman, and Lorian Schwaber, (all three teachers are EMTs). Since graduate school, she has devoted herself to researching how to use EVT as the scientific theoretical basis for vocal training and combine it with Motor Learning for musical theater vocal teaching, so as to enhance the efficiency of musical theater vocal teaching.

In 2016, Tiantian was appointed by the "Beijing Talent Cultivation Program" to visit Carthage College in the United States, where she was first exposed to Estill Voice Training. In 2019, she met Kimberly Steinhauer, the president of Estill Voice International at an EVT workshop and began to study and prepare for the EVT certification with Kim. In 2022, Tiantian became the first Estill Master Trainer in mainland China. In the same year, Tiantian cooperated with Estill Voice International to organize the translation and proofreading of the Chinese version of the Foundation Course of Estill Voice Training and published it on the Estill Online Academy. 

From 2022 to now, Tiantian and Kimberley Steinhaur have co-organized two China Online EVT Hybrid Level 1&2 Workshops, in which Tiantian participated as the host, course translator, and small group trainer. In 2024, they are going to conduct the third Online EVT Hybrid Level 1&2 Workshop in the same format. In the process, Tiantian has been able to work with EMCIs such as Patrik Thurner (Austria), Yukie Ina (Japan), Asia's first EMCI, Tim Richard, one of the UK's most popular EMCIs, and Leon Trayman (UK), to observe and learn from their teaching styles as well as translating in real time for them.

In 2018, Tiantian founded the online teaching brand “Tiantian’s Musical Theatre Hut" and held three rounds of musical theatre vocal workshops in Beijing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen, combining Estill Voice Training with Musical Theatre Vocal Teaching. In 2021, Tiantian taught the Musical Theatre Voice Course at the Communication University of China and integrated the Estill Voice Training into the teaching content; in 2022, Tiantian organized the Fourth Round of Musical Theatre Voice Workshops, launching the first three-month Semester program. In this kind of long-term teaching, the combination of learning and practicing is better realized, and the Estill Voice Training is further integrated with Musical Theatre Vocal Teaching.

As a lifelong learner, Tiantian is currently studying and preparing for the EMCI exam. She hopes to become the first EMCI in mainland China soon and to contribute to the development of the Estill Voice Training in China.
