Victoria Diamond is a multi-disciplinary artist who started performing at a young age in Halifax,
Nova Scotia. As a child, she studied ballet, jazz and tap dance, and she was cast in her first professional lead role at age 9. From there, she performed a variety of roles in TV, film, theater,
and musicals, as well as voiceover work in her home city.
After graduating from a French immersion high school and finishing university studies in
philosophy and history, she was accepted in a 3-year contemporary dance program in Montreal.
It was there that she came to the attention of a director who had an extensive background in
French theater and encouraged Victoria to pursue acting, casting her in her first French play.
Upon graduation from dance school, Victoria continued to pursue her acting studies in various
programs and workshops, including the Neighborhood Playhouse in NYC, Meisner method with
Jacqueline McClintock, physical theater with Debby Mulholland in Italy, as well as a various
other forms of acting and movement related training: clown, voice training, improvisation, yoga
teacher-training, and Alexander technique.
Victoria has developed an eclectic and successful career, working in both English and French
entertainment industries in television, theater, film and voice work. In 2019, she won a Gemini
award for her performance in the Quebec TV series, Nomades. Recent credits include:
Forever, plus a day (Crave) Blood & Treasure (CBS) in the upcoming Quebec feature film,
Lignes de Fuites (Catherine Chabot/Cinémaginaire).
Victoria has been teaching movement and coaching actors in various capacities since she
started working professionally at the age of 12. Through her experience in dance, theater,
somatic therapies and yoga, she has a broad depth of knowledge about how to prepare oneself
globally for the various demands of the actor. In tandem with her acting career, she is currently
the recurring on-set acting and accent coach for Moozoom, an interactive children’s show that is
distributed all through North America.
Acting audition coaching will set you up for your best chance at booking a role. Every audition is an opportunity to stretch and refine our creativity and skills. Our main objective in working together would be to get a thorough understanding of the scene: character’s intentions, given circumstances, and the genre of the production, in order to go in with confidence. Most importantly, we use the audition as a tool to experiment, have fun, and explore the craft of acting. Prepare for your audition for stage, film, television or voiceover.
Working with a selected scene from film, theater or television, we will work from the same premise of preparing an audition, yet with a more detailed and deep dive into text analysis, character work and learning how to work with oneself to deliver a truthful and compelling performance. Scene work coaching can be useful for actors both in advance of an audition or during the role preparation stage to build a deeper understanding of the character and realize your most alive character.

Jordanne was exceptional - I can't recommend her work enough to anyone seeking to improve their vocal technique and/or strength. She takes a full-body approach to singing, based on her training in Alexander Technique, which in my case meant connecting my posture to tension across my whole body. With Jordanne's guidance I was able to go from singing with tension and strain to singing with fluidity and support, all within a very short period of time. The newfound confidence I have in my voice is life-changing!

Robert is the best voice teacher I've ever had. In addition to having an amazing voice and range (helpful when I need to hear the notes back) he's incredibly supportive and fun to work with. I've improved my voice drastically and he really helped me through learning to belt and riff! Thank you Robert!!

I absolutely LOVE Tylor. I started singing last May and I was super nervous about it. Singing is extremely personal and vulnerable, and for me it’s been so hard to feel comfortable enough to go to lessons because of how insecure I am about my voice. Once I summoned the courage to finally take lessons, I have to say that Tylor really went above and beyond to ensure I felt comfortable and safe.

Jordanne is great teacher! For the first time I contact her, I am very pleased. She took the time to truly understand what I needed. And, the first time I met her she made me feel so comfortable that I felt at ease to express myself. She made me do some exercise to see what my blocage was. Then gave me a routine, which is exactly what I needed. It have been only 3 courses but I can experience the change and improvement. And not only in singing and piano. I wasn’t aware of all the tension I use to have in my body. Now that I am conscious of that, I am able to relax my body and feel a deep connection.

I did my first lesson with Jordie last week. She is very patient and has a lot of knowledge on vocal training. She made me see things from a different light in just one session! Her knowledge is impeccable. I’m looking forward to working on my voice with her! I already feel improvement in just a week. Truly recommend her.
Julian Basurto
Throughly enjoyed my lessons with Express and Ian! Would definitely recommend. I looked for a long time for a singing teacher that I could have fun with, connect with, and grow my voice. Ian was definitely that teacher for me. The concerts were great too to be a part of. Thank you guys!
