I welcome all students from age 12 to retired adults and any level of experience.

Lessons are taught in a relaxed and supportive environment and are tailored to each individual, allowing you to discover your true voice and make the very best of its unique qualities.

Lessons are taught in my dedicated, private studio just outside Ormskirk in Lancashire. My studio has its own off-road parking spaces.

Whether you wish to develop your singing skills purely for pleasure or work towards performances, exams or auditions I will plan lessons to suit your needs.

Depending on your individual goals or aspirations, we might work on any combination of the following:

• Learn how to warm up your body and voice for more effective rehearsals and successful performances.

• Simple and efficient breath control and active breath support.

• Improving your techniques of breathing and placement can often open up & increase your vocal range.

• Learn new repertoire with the opportunity to record your songs on industry standard software.

• Stagecraft, movement and communication skills.

• Audition preparation for Universities, Conservatoires, stage schools & H.E. courses in Music, Theatre or Performing Arts.

• No music teacher should claim to teach confidence. However, confidence often develops as a by-product of becoming proficient in any new skill.

• Voice protection and recovering from vocal strain.

Please note, a discounted rate is offered to all regular students paying for lessons by Standing Order.

Music Exams
I offer students the opportunity to take exams, if they wish, with both London College of Music (LCM) and the Associated Boards of the Royals Schools of Music (ABRSM).

The exams progress from Pre-Grade 1 in each performance discipline up to Grade 8.

After Grade 8, three levels of Diploma are available as you approach professional status.

Currently, I offer the following exam subjects:

• Singing (Classical) ABRSM
• Music Theory ABRSM
• Musical Theatre Singing LCM
• Popular Music Vocals LCM

Exams take place locally.
