You deserve to be heard! Your voice is important! and it takes many aspects to making it sound! The voice is like any other muscle, with a bit of focus and training, all voices can improve their quality and control.

In our classes you will learn about your natural instrument, the whole body's input into supporting your sound, what makes you shine from the inside out, what it is you really wish to express and so much more.

In our classes we explore your two voices: the inside voice (your soul's expression and driving force) and your external voice (the production machine!) all whilst having fun and building confidence.

Classes are designed for those wanting to develop their singing voices or/and speaking voice.

Babies & young children's classes also available, learning through playful songs and musical games. (fun for the 'young at heart' carers too - wink, wink)

Classes conducted from my home studio or via Zoom.

My lessons will help you get started on the piano, learn piano theory, piano scales and piano modes. You will learn to improve your counting skills, learn popular songs, develop your improvisational skills and much more!
I have a valid working with children's check and am able to conduct lessons via Zoom or at the student's location.

I am offering lessons in both guitar and Violin.

As an experienced musician, I have been playing for over 10 years. In 2017 I obtained my Certificate II in Music and Industry which provided me with the skills needed to conduct lessons.
