“There is nothing like the sound of your voice with your heart in it.”
-Tessa and Johannes
Our Philosophy: The Evolving Instrument
At Evolved Vocology, we believe the voice is a living instrument shaped by the vessel that holds it. It is not just sound - it is identity, memory, emotion, breath, and embodiment.
Our work blends somatic intelligence, functional voice science, breath work, and artistic exploration to create a pathway toward vocal mastery that transcends traditional technique.
Our method is a guided experience. An experience that awakens the voice from the inside out.
Our Approach Blends:
Breathwork & Somatic Intelligence
Vocal Science & Functional Training
Artistic Development & Expressive Freedom
The Origin of Our Work
At Evolved Vocology, we believe the voice is not separate from the body - it is the body. We are each a vessel: complex, expressive, powerful. And like any instrument, the vessel must be tuned, aligned, and awakened.
This is not traditional voice coaching. This is vocology as transformation, a practice of aligning who you are with the sound you cultivate.
Meet the Founders
Tessa Lang & Johannes Schwaiger
With a background in performance, vocal pedagogy, anatomical study, somatic practice, and international teaching, Tessa and Johannes created Evolved Vocology to bridge the gap between technical vocal training and embodied transformation.
Known for intuitive, integrated guidance, Tessa and Johannes have worked with professional singers, theatre artists, speakers, healthcare professionals, educators, and individuals seeking self expression through voice.

Evolved Vocology was created to help individuals access their fullest, most expressive voice by tuning the physical, emotional, and artistic systems that shape it.
We exist to transform:
how people breathe
how they inhabit their bodies
how they communicate
how they transform breath into tone
Every voice holds potential - Our mission is to evolve it.
“Evolved Vocology’s methodology gives me tangible ways to feel and share my inner world with community. Through the curriculum that physically integrates science and nature, I feel more connected to choices that allow me to be authentic. The exercises Tessa and Johannes teach to align breath, voice and movement are easy to understand and give me access to my artistry in daily life as a teacher, singer, and actor. I feel I have the tools to put my best foot forward on all the stages that I walk onto- the classroom, the theater and beyond.”
