OUR STORY
New York Voice Center was founded in 2018 on the belief that voice work is transformative, practical, and deeply human. Our work is grounded in breath, presence, and decades of experience in the world of acting and communication. We are inspired by helping clients find their voice, resonate truthfully, and reach their goals with confidence and clarity.
Rooted in the rigor of performance training and enriched by experience across Broadway stages, corporate ventures, and leadership environments, we help individuals and teams access voice as a tool for impact, connection, and presence.

A TRACK RECORD OF EXCELLENCE
Together, Jane and Ben expanded the Center’s offerings to include a new slate of team-based experiences, including their signature SEEN AND HEARD workshop, designed to align voice with leadership, empathy, and innovation.
Both Jane and Ben bring a rare blend of executive coaching, vocal pedagogy, and professional performance. They trained at Atlantic Theater Company and the Moscow Art Theatre School, drawing from the practical, goal-oriented clarity of Practical Aesthetics and the imaginative depth of the Stanislavski system to support authentic, embodied communication across disciplines.
This approach blends artistic rigor with executive relevance, helping clients connect to their voice not just as a tool, but as a strategy for leadership and influence.
Jane and Ben have bridged their performing experience with deep vocal technique and communication science to help clients shift habits, release limiting mindsets, and open new pathways toward resonance, expression, and possibility.
Founder Jane Guyer Fujita has coached over 100 productions in New York City, including work on Broadway, film, and television, as well as at institutions like NYU, Harvard/A.R.T., and Yale. Her clients have included Tony Award winners, executives, and high-level creatives working at the intersection of storytelling and strategy.
After over a decade of coaching individuals in voice, presentation, and accent skills, Jane launched New York Voice Center to offer a full-spectrum voice training program for individuals and organizations. In 2025, she teamed up with Ben Katz, a New York–based actor, teacher, and executive coach specializing in voice, speech, and on-camera presence. Ben brings extensive experience working with leaders from Google, Apple, McKinsey, Cisco, and other top firms helping them sharpen how they craft and deliver ideas, whether onstage, on camera, or in the boardroom.
