I created the Vocal Jazz Studio as a place to learn jazz singing without feeling that you have to know everything already.

​

It is for singers from all over the world, at very different stages. Maybe you are just starting. Maybe you have been singing for years but never really studied jazz. Maybe you have stopped and started a few times. Or maybe you come from another musical style and simply want to explore something new.

​

Here, you can study the different sides of jazz singing in one place: vocal technique, jazz and bossa nova language, harmony and theory, basic piano, rhythm, improvisation, interpretation and repertoire.

​

You can choose how you want to learn: private lessons, live workshops or structured programmes. You decide what you want to work on, how much you want to study and where you want to go next.

​

There is no need to compare yourself with anyone else. Come as you are, start where you are, and build from there.
