What happens in a voice lesson?
Voice lessons with the Eccleston Voice Studio provide a high-quality, comprehensive musical education. Each lesson will begin with a vocal warm up and some light musical theory. We will stretch together, explore our vocal range, warm up our voices, and learn new musical concepts. Vocal technique is taught through the songs we work on over the year. Repertoire is chosen to reflect the student's interests, disposition, and skill level! As we learn songs we will develop our singing breath, articulation, phrasing, intonation, stage presence, and our musicality! Our voice lessons will encourage musical exploration and personal discovery. Voice lessons are fun and engaging - students will always leave their lesson with a smile.
Why take voice lessons?
Voice lessons are the perfect extra-curricular/hobby activity for anyone who loves to sing. Studying singing helps foster a life-long love and appreciation of music. There is nothing better than using your singing voice to its full potential to create something beautiful. When you learn how to sing healthfully you will be able to sing as much as you want for your entire life - we teach sustainable singing technique so our student's instruments are developed in a safe manner. Voice lessons are a ton of fun: learning new songs and challenging yourself is a blast! One of the greatest things about singing is that your instrument is part of you, because of this it helps develop keen body awareness. Voice lessons come with supportive performance opportunities which create unique and exciting opportunities for growth. By regularly performing students become comfortable with being in front of an audience, develop their communication skills, and gain tons of confidence. Learning how to sing, developing your voice, and deepening your understanding of music will benefit your entire life!
