Course Overview



Learning to sing can seem daunting and complicated. When searching the internet for different ways of improving our singing, students are often bombarded with information on how to do so. Videos, blogs, exercises and information saturate the internet more and more, but the real question for most people is: Where Do I Start? This course is aimed at those new to singing or looking to improve their technical foundation skills. Every voice is different and requires different technical approaches in order to get it singing at its best. On this course, each student's individual voice is explored, and each student develops a technique that suits them. This course will strip back the complicated aspects of learning to sing by working with students to create a tailored program of exercises, a repertoire and a practice schedule.
