| Did you know that
when you sing a Pop, Rock, Country, Blues or a Jazz song that
you must use techniques different to Classical Singers?
There are so many different ways the human voice
is used in the world depending on cultures and styles of music.
At the school we teach you how to sing with confidence using safe,
healthy technique which is appropriate for all the modern styles
of music.
We know just how nervous you feel about having
singing lessons. It's a very personal thing and it can be very
scary to sing in front of someone you've never met before.
So we ease you in and treat you as an individual.
You'll be surprised how quickly you will start to feel comfortable
with our wonderful singing teachers.
All students and parents will have regular face
to face contact with Rosie who will be checking in with you and
your teacher to ensure that you are on the right road to ROCK
