What Are Voice Lessons?
The voice studio is a special place, and you are most welcome here!
Singing is a universal instrument, people throughout all of history and all over the world have sung. When you step into a vocal studio you are part of a tradition hundreds of years old. As singing uses our bodies as our instrument, it also has a number of health benefits. It can improve breathing, strengthen core muscles, reduce stress and anxiety, enhance cognitive function, and improve social connections, it has even been shown to boost the immune system by increasing immunoglobulin A, which helps fight off infections.
With a voice teacher's guidance and expertise, you can progress faster in your vocal development than you might on your own. They can help you to overcome obstacles and guide you through difficult vocal passages, allowing you to achieve your singing goals more quickly and effectively. In our lessons we will customise a learning plan for you that is unique to your specific learning objectives and your goals. Most, (though not all) lessons will include a workbook to allow you to continue working through materials at home. In performing singing you will hone your acting skills and your presentation abilities, which can help with confidence and memorisation. You will also be introduced to singing in other languages.
If your learning goals include exams, I would encourage you to get a technique book for your vocalises, scales, chords etc. We will decide in your lesson what book would be most useful to you.
Develop Proper Vocal Technique
Singing requires proper technique to prevent injury, improve vocal quality, and enhance vocal range. A voice teacher can help you develop proper vocal technique by teaching you breath control, posture, resonance, and other important elements of singing.
