The lessons use contemporary, well researched and developed methods in a relaxed and friendly environment for you to free and find your voice, develop your skills and abilities to sing what you want and how you want and grow confidence in your singing and yourself! I have spent over 15 years refining and implementing vocal techniques, studying and teaching many different methods and approaches, to find the tools and strategies that can offer my students the most effective development in their singing in every lesson. Apart from studying a variety of different singing approaches, I have also invested myself in learning body methods, including 2 years of Alexander Teacher Training and 2 semesters of Feldenkrais Method Teacher Training. I experienced both these methods giving breakthroughs in progress that years of vocal exercises could not achieve! The programme is always adapted to your needs as each person is at a different place in their journey with a unique body and mind. We strategically use a combination of singing exercises and working with the body, chosen on the basis of what your voice is doing at that moment. We then apply for this work directly to songs of your choice. Whilst voice training, like any other training, takes time and commitment, there are also tools that you can use to give you immediate results and breakthroughs! If you are a beginner, training in this way will make the journey easier and faster. If you have trained previously and find you are stuck and cannot progress past certain limits, there are certainly breakthrough and game-changing strategies that you can learn to do what you might have thought impossible. I continue to educate myself to be able to help you better! Last year I completed Level 1 of Somatic Voicework, The Lovetri Method and "The Vocal Athlete's Guide to Vocal Wellness and Fitness" at The Contemporary Commercial Institute Vocal Pedagogy Institute at Shenandoa Conservatory, taught by Marci Rosenberg Both these trainings were taught by very respected and experienced voice specialists and have deepened my understanding of the voice and improved my teaching.
