Many beginners find singing intimidating, but it doesn’t have to be!
We love to create a supportive environment to make learning fun and stress-free, and part of the key to learning singing is by developing your voice one step at a time:
Here are three main areas to work on as a beginner:
Awareness of your own sound: Learning to identify what is good, and what isn't, is an important skill in singing because in order to sing well, you also have to hear yourself correctly. It's very common for many adults to listen to themselves and think they are doing a bad job, when in fact they are doing a great - and natural - job of singing, simply because they do not have the skills to identify what is "correct" or "efficient".
Vocal Technique: We aim for a balanced, stable and clear sound as a benchmark. We do this by increasing awareness of sound, your body and your voice, while working on elements related to the body: breathing, posture, alignment, a relaxed neck/tongue or jaw, and so on.
Musicianship: We apply the above to musical elements, such as pitch, melody, rhythm, and dynamic variations. Depending on your level of skill, these music elements increase in difficulty, but as a beginner, we start with very easy to sing-along-with scales and patterns, along with easy-going songs.
From there, we then begin to dip our toes into creative and expressive singing, performance, and so on.
Here are some tips to make it less scary:
Tips:
Focus on one aspect at a time, like pitch or rhythm, to avoid overwhelm.
Start with simple exercises to build comfort with your voice.
Practice at your own pace—there’s no rush to hit high notes right away - in fact, this can be detrimental to your progress!
Focus on your breathing to control any nervous energy or a wobbly voice while singing.
Celebrate every bit of progress, no matter how small—it builds confidence!

Starting singing lessons as an adult can be a transformative experience. Not only does it help you discover and refine your unique voice, but it also boosts your confidence and reduces stress.
Singing enhances your breath control and posture, promotes emotional expression, and even fosters social connections through group classes or performances.
