Singing Lessons
BEGINNERS & ADVANCED
If you have never learned singing before, if you have had some training or if you are a fully fledged pro singer then Sydney Singing Centre is the right studio for you.
I also specialise in adult beginners.
When you first make contact I will organise a time to come to the studio and sing for me.Or a FREE Skype appraisal. After I have listened to you sing I will give you detailed feedback as to which area of your voice we need to work on to get your voice to where you want it to be. I want to be sure you feel comfortable before committing to working with me, so for this initial meet and greet there is no charge to you.
Then, if you are ready to start training we will work out a lesson schedule to suit you.
