Your voice is the instrument you already own.

We accept students from age six upward. Younger learners benefit more from group singing (rhythm clapping, listening games, group songs) which we run in our junior choir track — formal one-to-one technique work waits until age six or seven, when vocal cords are mature enough.

Almost certainly. True tone-deafness (amusia) is rare — about 1 in 50 people. The much more common issue is untrained ear-pitch coordination, which is teachable. Within three months of weekly lessons most "I can't sing" adults are reliably hitting pitch within their natural range.

We assess this in your first lesson. Roughly: women are sopranos (high), mezzos (middle) or altos (low); men are tenors (high), baritones (middle) or basses (low). Your fach guides repertoire choice but does not limit you — most pop and worship music sits in a flexible mid-range usable by any voice.

Both. Several of our faculty came up through contemporary music (gospel, R&B, musical theatre); others are classically trained. We match you with the trainer whose technique fits your goal — and we will teach you healthy belting, not the throat-shredding kind.

Yes — that is one of our most common student paths. Audition prep adds sight-reading drills, blend exercises, audition-piece selection, and mock auditions. See /vocal-training for our choir-focused programme.

Yes — and voice translates particularly well to online lessons since the trainer mainly needs to hear you, not see complex finger work. We use a low-latency private classroom; many of our international students train this way.

Hydrate (room-temperature water, not iced), warm up before any sustained singing, sleep enough, avoid yelling and whispering (both more damaging than normal singing), and back off entirely when you feel a sore throat coming on. We teach vocal-health fundamentals in every lesson.

Yes — see our /vocal-training page for choir, ensemble and workshop offerings. Many voice-lesson students join a choir as a complement to their solo work; the combination develops you fastest.
