Singing Lessons for Beginners

What you'll learn

Learn how to sing with our music & singing short courses in Sydney!

Our beginner singing lessons delve into fundamental voice production techniques within a group dynamic, aiming to cultivate vocal freedom and boost confidence in students' voice utilisation. Through this eight-week course, we merge practical exercises with technical insights to enhance your vocal prowess. 

The initial four weeks concentrate on foundational techniques, while the subsequent four weeks emphasise performance skills. By the course's culmination, each student will showcase an individual piece of their choice. These sessions surpass mere singalongs, offering comprehensive vocal education akin to private lessons.

Each class includes technical and musical ideas for exploration and learning, provides an opportunity to ask questions about singing, offers practical application of class ideas, and involves singing songs in a group setting.

Course testimonials

  • said: I took the course to help with issues with my voice. Luke teaching approach goes beyond what would be a stock standard class. He was very approachable and informative and offered very practical and useful skills as well as personal support when needed. His passion not only for singing but teaching is very evident as he went out of his way to make us all feel very comfortable and the end result was a confident and outgoing group. I certainly came away with a much more skillful approach towards my voice.

  • said: I really enjoyed the course. Luke is an outstanding and very knowledgeable tutor and I would highly recommend him. I feel that I reached my goal of improving my singing ability. Thank you.

  • said: Luke is an exceptionally knowledgeable tutor with a talent for simple, practical exercises for complex concepts. A wonderfully supportive class.

  • said: Absolutely fantastic, highly enjoyable and engaging. Was quite evident with student retention from start to finish! Has improved my vocal range and most importantly given me so much more confidence and motivation to practice and just enjoy singing. As suggested by the end of the class - we'd love a beginner's choir course to be facilitated by Luke, certain that we can easily rack up the minimum 6 count.

  • said: I enjoyed many aspects of the course. Luke's approach is very thorough giving me a better understanding of technique and the processes involved in singing. Importantly, he is encouraging to all students, no matter their level of skill or talent. I was sorry that I was unable to attend all classes however Luke's hand-outs and MP3 recordings will be a great help in future. I would very much like to attend another singing course, perhaps a Beginners Choir. If such a course becomes available, please let me know
