Meet the Team

If you’re enthusiastic about developing your vocal skills I am passionate about helping you sing and speak authentically and with vocal freedom.

A typical session will cover vocal technique, musical repertoire, storytelling through song and dealing with performance anxiety. Alongside my work as a professional opera singer, I have undertaken extensive training in MT and CCM vocal techniques as well as studying Pilates, Alexander Technique, Accent Method, Estill Levels 1 & 2 and Radio Presenting.

I am also an experienced exam and audition coach and a qualified Vocal Health First Aider. I use a mixture of all these different disciplines in bespoke teaching for every individual student.

Clients I teach:

• committed classical singers – secondary/tertiary/professional opera
• talented young scholarship singers
• actors wanting to sing
• committed performers/singer songwriters/Musical Theatre
• professional spoken voice users

My expertise is in modern musical, power sounds, lighter pop sounds and connecting text and feeling with music to become a singing storyteller.

I’m a highly experienced performer able to coach roles and vocal styles for different musicals. I have sung roles in Roman Polanski’s Kult-Musical “Dance of the Vampires” (Magda), Tarzan (Kala), Wicked (Elphaba), Mamma Mia (Donna), The Scarlet Pimpernel (Marguerite), Marie Antoinette (title role), Jekyll and Hyde (Lucy) and many more.

I also teach singing and interpretation for students in professional Musical theater, postgraduates and education programs. If you need help with acting through song, power sounds for contemporary musical theatre or audition coaching, contact me here

“Cerys has been hugely inspiring for my daughter, not just through introducing her to different styles of music but to how much fun she can have with her voice”

I began my career in the music profession as an opera singer, and soon realised that was just a part of what singing voices can do! I’m now a highly experienced, creative and flexible teacher working cross-genre, interested in helping you achieve your vocal goals.

My holistic and client-focused ‘Create Voice’ approach to vocal development allows people of all ages and stages to gain a deep knowledge and experience of the full spectrum of their voice’s potential. In lessons you will get exercises and warmups for your specific repertoire, voice and personal growth. The lessons are fun and engaging to build your confidence in singing, whatever style you choose.

I aim to help my students build life long skills that will support healthy, flexible and joyful singing.

Singing Teacher, Vocal Animateur, Singing for welbeing coach

I am the director of the children’s chorus for Wexford Festival Opera and leads the Discover Opera project for Blackwater Valley Opera, Waterford.

In my studio I work with young developing voices between ages 10-18 preparing them for stage work and festivals. I also work with adults seeking to discover their singing voice or simply keep in shape for local performances.

I work closely with communities on performance-based projects and am the musical director of Wexford’s Parkinson choir and community choir ‘Cordiality’.

I am passionate in promoting singing for health and well-being.

Originally trained as a classical mezzosoprano, I have always loved teaching and helping others unveil the diamond of their own voice.

After having trained at Vocal Process and having finished a training in Live coaching, this is why you may want to work with me: “My passion and joy lies in helping you find safety and connection in your own body and mind. So that you can use YOUR voice in a free and authentic way. Helping you find strategies to grow as a performer, speaker, singer and human being.”

I work with a wide variety of clients, both in singing- and speaking voice and I use my additional skills as a life coach, to help you with performance anxiety, fear of public speaking, fixed mindset, overcoming self-judgment, perfectionism and rebalancing your nervous system for peak performance. I am based in the Netherlands, but I work online as well- in English 

“It’s hard to believe that singing lessons can be life affirming, but that is what Grace’s teaching does”

Every person should have the opportunity to be creative with their voice. I’m a community musician, choir leader and singing teacher and my aim is to help you find your voice and gain confidence in the you that sings. My choir sessions and 1-1 lessons are full of laughs, technical support and real goal setting whether it’s for great harmony singing or important performances. I build supportive communities and joyful choirs

If you want to know more about managing a choir, structuring your rehearsals, or you just want to join one of my communities, contact me here.

Kindness through performing arts

I want every student I teach to understand that their voice is unique with the power to impact other people’s lives. Because I am passionate about how performers can use music and songs to connect with an audience, I set up my own Academy in television, film and musical theatre – StageScreen – coaching vocals, choreography and acting, and specialising in working with performers aged 8-18.

I’m an experienced performer myself and love working with actors and dancers who want to sing in musical theatre (it’s where I started). In a typical session we’ll use story telling through song and healthy vocal techniques to help you find your connection to the music, lyrics and movement.

I began studying with Vocal Process over 15 years ago, and am now a Musical Theatre lecturer, a performing arts adjudicator, and, most recently, the new creative director at Promising Productions

I’m an accredited singing teacher with over 30 years professional experience as a performer and teacher. In a typical lesson I like to find out what each student wants to sing, then we’ll do a physical and vocal warmup, a targeted vocal exercise and a sing. We always discuss the lyrics and meaning of a song too.

I love teaching teenagers working towards GCSEs or auditioning for Uni, and I like working with absolute beginners of any age. Many of my adult beginners will ask me to sing with them so they can experiment with harmonies.

In my private studio (Now Sing) I’ve helped hundreds of children and adults on the journey to becoming better singers, with outstanding results.

I recently launched Little Voices North Hampshire, a franchised singing and drama school, which now operates from four locations providing singing and acting lessons for students aged 4-18.

I appear regularly as a professional singer with various bands and artists, and I love singing and teaching popular music vocals, musical theatre and particularly pop.

If you are looking to hone your riffing skills, or would like more confidence with creating adlibs, melodic variations or improvisation, I will create tailored exercises and gradient steps for you.

I am a singing teacher working cross-genre, specialising in CCM to help clients find their voice, and fulfil their potential, in a safe and informal environment.

Originally trained as a classical singer, I studied at BIMM (the famous Brighton Institute of Modern Music) where I obtained an HDip in Modern Music (Distinction). I sing with the John Whitehead Jazz Trio, The Mark & JJ Duo (Acoustic, pop, soul, funk) and The Soho Blues Band. I also run a women’s CCM choir called “The Acabella Brawds”

Come and explore different CCM genres (such as jazz, blues, soul, pop & rock) and get professional guidance on how to make those styles sound authentic and work for your voice. Online teaching is a speciality!

Connect with your inner voice – connect with your fellow musicians – connect with your audience!
