Hi hi, welcome to my profile! :)
My greatest asset is that I never feel like I know everything. As a result, I keep looking for new, innovative, scientifically substantiated material to be able to guide you as well as possible. In my lessons you get a lot of information in a fun learning environment. So if you are studious, creative, like a joke in between and an honest approach, then you are the student, singer, artist for me! :)

My passion lies not only with singing itself, but especially with coaching. I love so much to see my students grow and shine on stage, much more than being there myself. I love the profession so much because it also combines my creative, caring, coaching side with my investigative, inquisitive nature. I continuously immerse myself in everything that has to do with voice, mindset and a healthy body. And hope to inspire you with that too.

- Discover the potential of your voice and take control!
- Discover and develop your unique sound!
- Learn to use your voice in a healthy way to prevent voice complaints!
- Discover different music genres and train your vocal range
- Learn relaxation techniques, optimize your mind & body, master stress and fear of failure.
- Discover who you are as a performer, Learn how to let your strengths shine on stage!
Extra information
How can you prepare for your first singing lesson?

- Think about a song you would like to learn how to sing
- Prepare a song in which you feel comfortable
- Bring a folder to put your lyrics in there
- AND a lot of craving to learn to push your limits!

About Me
"Knowledge is power, but don't take yourself too seriously!" I teach you to take control of your voice, body and mind but in a very relaxed, fun way. Know that you can make mistakes in my lesson, you learn from that! I will motivate you to go to the extreme, to dare to sing, to push your limits and to learn to sing more freely.

I grew up with a predilection for Soul, Folk & Country music and lost my heart to sultry voices within soul music. But I can also enjoy pop, rnb, rock, musical, ...

Big fan of : Adele, Madison Ryann Ward, JP Cooper, Marcus Mumford, Lewis Capaldi, Ben Platt, Teddy Swims (and a huge amount more)

Hi!

Have you always wanted to learn to sing?
Is your voice getting tired after singing (alone or in a choir)?
Do you want to be better at singing?
Are you curious about what your voice can do?
Do you sing in a choir and need extra help putting together the material in between rehearsals?

I love passing on the knowledge of my craft. The mechanics of the voice is such a small and intricate thing, and knowing what goes inside our throat and body is a very special experience. I get excited and moved every time a student achieves a new skill, and takes another step towards a deeper understanding of their voice.
On top of my experience as a singer and a teacher, I have a degree in linguistics. That allows me to know exactly what has to be done inside your throat and mouth in order to produce a specific sound. I can therefore adapt to each student: if they have an analytic mind, I can explain what goes on inside and what should be done to improve that. If they have an instinctive mind, I can help with metaphor in order to help the phonation. Or both! My method is multi-faceted because each voice is unique, and it is my job to adapt, and not the contrary.

How does a lesson work?
The first time we meet, we will talk about your journey in the music world. What have you done yet music wise, what artists and genres inspire you, what are your goals. Then we will do what we do in every regular lesson: I will direct you during some warming-up exercises, that include vocal technique work (if you have already warmed up, we just do a few exercises about technique), and then we will work on whatever you want. I ask my students to always come with at least one piece of music they want to work on (or maybe two, depends on the time we have on hands).

See you soon!

Are you looking for a passionate singing teacher? Search no further!

With over 15 years of singing experience and a completed bachelor's, master's, and postgraduate degrees in classical singing and opera, I could be your ideal choice! I've already gained experience in professional concerts and opera productions in Belgium, Germany, and the Netherlands!

In addition to classical music, I am also no stranger to light/pop music, so you can certainly always enjoy that! My lessons are aimed at a positive and supportive learning environment. Together we explore the basic principles and solve challenges in a relaxed and attentive atmosphere.

Whether you are a beginner or want to refine your singing talents, I am happy to help you achieve your vocal goals.

Don't hesitate to contact me! I hope to see you soon!

In the singing lesson we start with learning basic theory about mindset, breathing, breath support,... For students with some experience in singing we go more into different types of singing, for example head voice, mixed voice, emotions while singing, microphone techniques,...

Do you want specific tips for e.g. performances, music choices,...? This is certainly possible! I will look with you at what your needs are and what you would like to learn.

We're not just going to look at the voice but also at 'How do I stand on stage?' or 'How do I reduce stress?' So I'm also going to look at the mental and emotional aspects.

I will help you further based on all my musical baggage that I am currently expanding myself! I am super excited to get started with you and further develop our singing voice together.
