what happens in a singing lesson
The tried and tested way of improving singer’s voices in the shortest time.
CHAT: We chat to find out your specific singing goals and objectives, or any vocal problems. (2 mins)
DIAGNOSTICS: You sing a few simple scales so we can hear your voice, then we can identify what do well and what you need help with. (2 mins)
EXERCISES: We give you some carefully chosen exercises to change your bad habits. It’s always easier to fix a voice using carefully-chosen exercises rather than during a song, especially when you’re starting out. (25 mins)
SINGING A SONG (aka ‘Application of technique into song’): You keep the same technique from the exercises into the song. (25 mins)
SUMMARY: Lesson summary, homework, book next lesson. (1 min)
NB - Once the technique is improved, it’s easier to add emotion. Poor technique prevents singers from expressing themselves fully.
Fast-Tracked Progress
We tailor the lesson to exactly what you and your voice needs.
We do NOT use the same generic warm-up routines for everyone.
This means the exercises used in your lesson work the quickest for you, and this ensures your progress is as fast as possible.
This also means we can also take into account other factors - e.g. your previous singing experience, your musical background, your confidence, how fast the lesson moves forward, etc.
We work with you to help you develop your voice in the same way a personal trainer might to help you get fit. Within each vocal lesson, we develop the muscle memory of your voice (and the vocal muscles) - both coordination and strength - so you have a better, more reliable voice.
