Yes, I am believer that voice sessions should be available and accessible to anyone who wishes to learn. That being said, our voice sessions will have a focus on building vocal skills and understanding in order to guide you to achieve your specific goals. If you’re looking for sessions to sing through songs purely for enjoyment and you have little to no interest in direction or progression we probably won’t be a good fit. That’s not to say our voice sessions won't be fun! Having fun and experiencing joy while exploring the voice is a huge part of the work, but my area of expertise is empowering singers and speakers to work towards realising measurable, achievable goals to level up their vocal and performance skills.

Clients often benefit from the continuous support that regular coaching offers. Regular sessions provide accountability, continuity and allow you to dive deep into your voice practice to reach your goals faster.

I use ZOOM primarily for online voice lessons, so it is important you have the newest version of the application downloaded and check for any updates before your session time. For the best results in online lessons I recommend the following: A laptop or computer rather than connecting by smart phone or tablet. Ensuring you have the “Original Sound for Musicians” audio profile selected - (this is not possible using a smart phone or tablet) Using an external condenser microphone rather than your computer or laptop’s built in mic. Headphones will be required for best audio set-up. A separate speaker or device to play any backing tracks you may need from. An internet connection of at least 40Mbps download speed and 10Mbps upload speed - ideally connected by ethernet cable.

No, there is no obligation to have voice sessions on a weekly or regular basis. Plenty of my clients book sessions on an ad-hoc basis as and when they need them. While it is true that regular, frequent sessions often lead to faster progression, I will tailor our sessions so that you have plenty to work on independently if you cannot commit to regular sessions.

This entirely depends on your circumstances. In-person sessions are available in Manchester City Centre, however if travel or location is a barrier, online sessions are available as a great alternative. While in-person sessions offer a unique experience; I have many years of experience working online and am sensitive and knowledgable in how to understand the sound quality of online platforms in order to deliver high quality voice lessons remotely.

Check my blog which is frequently updated with tips and resources I have made freely available. Additionally, I have a number of services at different price points. ​ Group classes are also a more option for many people. The costs of these classes operate on a sliding scale to allow those who may be in financial difficulty to access services. ​ I am also currently offering a 20 minutes for £20 service. This option won't allow a deep dive into all the ins-and-outs of voice work, but is suitable if you are encountering a very specific problem you are already aware of, and just need a quick session to plan how to move forward and work independently. Often this is suitable for singers preparing for auditions running into an issue in a specific section of a song, or speakers wishing to evaluate their vocal hygiene habits. This option is not suitable for singers or speakers facing longer-term obstacles, or wishing to work on development towards their long term goals.
