Singing Lessons and Acting Through Song Coaching - beginner to professional

Hi I’m Ruth. Thanks for stopping by to find out a little more about me. I trained in classical and opera singing at The Royal Northern College of Music, and for the past 7 years have had a career in operetta and musical theatre. Including lead roles in The Mikado, Pilates of Penzance, Iolanthe and HMS Pinafore with the International Gilbert and Sullivan Opera Company, The Merry Widow, Babes in Arms, Out Of Of This World, Free As Air, Cinderella and Peter Pan to name a few.

Alongside my career I’ve taught singing and acting with RNCM Youth Perform, Enfield Music Service, Bolton Music Service, Artis, Stage Coach and privately at many schools, colleges, and performing schools across the country. Helping students achieve their personal goals as well as desired results in ABRSM, Trinity, LAMDA, GCSE and A Level exams.

I specialise in developing vocal and performance technique especially in the genres of musical theatre and classical singing but love teaching all music genres. The most important thing is finding music you love to sing.

I also offer advise on the realities of being a working actor, what to expect from an audition and how to prepare for it, building an audition repertoire and acting though song coaching.

I’m here to help anyone from a newbie who wants to build some insight and confidence, to professionals who want to hone their skills.

If you have any questions please feel free to get in touch.

CINEMA, ACTING, IMPROVISATION WORKSHOPS - - -
These sessions allow the development of skills and knowledge of the trade, with the game facing the camera, familiarization with the audiovisual environment and the camera tool, in the art of acting. Your inventiveness and your uniqueness being at the center of your training, it is a question of dwelling on the objective criteria, such as the voice, the use of the body, the relationship with the partner, the capacity to occupy the space. But it is also the singularity and the commitment that are decisive. The objective of this training is to be able to: - Analyze and dissect a text - Create, develop and embody a character - Understand the artistic and technical writings of a film or a play - Create, cultivate and develop one's artistic identity and singularity (...) Through simulations and role-playing, the association between theory and practice makes it possible to achieve its objectives. PLACES : - Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne.

These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm).

Singing lessons from a professional singer in Amsterdam. Technique, body and mind connection. Learn to sing freely, healthily and with ease. Welcome 👋
Through various techniques I help you to feel and understand your own voice. Often singing becomes easy when you apply the right breathing technique. Posture is also important (this is sometimes underestimated). I can see when there is tension in your throat or in your body. I zoom in on this during the lesson. And I correct that. During the first lesson I listen carefully to your voice and to your goals and ideas. Based on that I create a tailor-made lesson that serves your goals. Do you not have any goals yet? Then we will look for them together! Maybe you really want to sing this one song? I do this too!: I have a home studio where I can record your voice. You can use this as a demo. I also have experience with producing music. I would like to teach you the basics of producing and what you need for it. Through various techniques, I help you feel and understand your own voice.
