Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I offer private singing lessons in Ghent with piano or guitar accompaniment. Knowledge of music theory is not necessary, the desire to sing and to work is sufficient! We consider warming up, technique and intention, but the pleasure of singing is always paramount.For me, singing is the best thing there is and I am happy to help you on your way to discover your own voice. Already 10 years of experience as a professional singer (Sophia plays Leonard Cohen, Ansatz der Maschine, Little Dots) 5 years of experience as a singing teacher. I also have experience in working with groups at singing workshops and in music education with young children.
Do not hesitate to contact us, the first time we meet for a no-obligation introductory lesson.

Hello, I'm Sophia, I teach singing lessons and I also perform on stage myself. My two great passions are playing music and passing on the joy of playing music to others. In singing lessons it is a new journey of discovery with every student and that is what I find so fascinating and educational about this work! Singing can make people blossom and I find it extremely valuable work to support students in this.Education

->Do you sing in a choir and want to improve your vocal skills?
->Do you need a certain manner to give your personality a voice, but not

->Do you need help to prepare for music exams or do you want to study?

The three pieces of my different philosophy:
1. Body awareness
2. Enjoy yourself and your voice

I'm a classically trained student from Germany and I'm playing as a concert soloist in Koren and I've heard what he's saying about it with a repeat performance. We can get there.
I know that all of them can be heard and that all kinds of music are in this place.

Singing course and vocal coaching for those who want to learn to sing and who want to learn to use the voice betterNo, we don't think that being able to sing is absolutely necessary for actors. Not every actor or actress has the ambition to appear in a musical and not every series or film features singing. Still, vocal coaching is a good idea... whether you want to learn to sing or not!
With your course fee you can participate in any of our courses whenever you want. This way you can not only learn to act, but also taste our courses in debate and presentation techniques (our TV course), communication, singing, improvisation, 'physical acting', lie detection, hypnosis, directing, or writing! Of course, the following applies: the more you follow 1 particular course, the faster you progress.
More info
Anyone who has ambitions as a singer or who wants to expand his or her skills to make it easier to land a role will soon end up taking singing lessons... but also those who have no intention of ever performing songs. can benefit greatly from vocal coaching.
You often have to be on set for a long time and then it is important to use your voice properly, so that it does not get tired and you can speak as powerfully after hours of recording as before. Finally, it is very useful to be able to put different effects on your voice. Just think of the raspy character of Gollum in The Lord of the Rings, the barking explanations of Samson, the full voice of Kabouter Plop or the grunted insults exchanged in The Chronicles of Sabrina. Judiciously used voice effects can not only add color to characters, they are sometimes essential or almost automatically arise from emotional moments. So being able to use them correctly and maintain control over them without damaging your vocal cords is essential.
What you learn
As is the case with almost all of our courses, we teach you techniques from different approaches. For our singing lessons, these are Speech Level Singing (SLS), Estill Voice Training (EVT) and Complete Vocal Technique (CVT).
Here are some things that will pass in review:
• The similarities and differences between the three major singing techniques
• Using support
• The larynx, lips, and other organs that help control voice production
• Add necessary twang
• Add air or not
• Different vocal modes (with CVT): neutral, curbing, overdrive and edge.
• Variety of voice effects including: creaking, distortion, grunting, rattling, screaming, vibrato and ornamentation
• For actors: relationship between voice color, effects and the playing of all kinds of characters
• For actors: the relationship between stem kle
Extras
• Help with the CV
• Assistance with admissions
• Help in choosing the right equipment
• Help with finding auditions
• Syllabus with pdf of the book Complete Vocal Technique
You can participate whenever you want!

Singing and Phonetics Lessons for Beginners and ProfessionalsMy pedagogy is holistic in nature and is inspired by different techniques transmitted by the teachers who have guided me and continue to follow me today.
The format I want to offer is as follows:
first I listen to the learner to find together the best learning method,
then I offer him physical warm-up exercises.
I continue with vocalizations adapted to his level and his needs.
Then, while applying a vocal technique aimed at the balance of the thoraco-abdominal breathing,
I accompany him in reading the text for a progressive approach to the interpretation of the piece.
PSI strongly recommend using the voice recorder.

If you want to train your ear and sing those fancy notes, there is always an easy way to do that. But of course practice is vital. This class requires basic musical skills. So be sure that you are able to repeat (sing) that you hear.
