You love to see it ✨ My girl Sam absolutely smashing All That Jazz 💛

✨Student Spotlight✨ Happy Wednesday! I wanted to share with you all a belated clip of my wonderful Sam absolutely smashing the hardest section of On My Own from Les Mis. I have experienced a tough personal situation over the last few weeks but this lady, as well my other fantastic students, have been a light in a very dark time. I couldn’t be prouder of Sam and I genuinely look forward to her lessons. Well done Sam! 💛

🌟Student Spotlight🌟 Here is my girl Caitlin showcasing her amazing harmonising skills 💛 She has worked hard during this piece, and has proven that practice and hard work certainly pays off! Her harmonies are clean and precise, and I don’t think there’s anything this girl can’t do! Well done @_cxitlxn !🌟

The importance of choosing the right key 🌟 This evening I was attempting to sing Drivers Licence, and although I was hitting the notes, it sounded strained and over worked. I found a lower key on YouTube, gave it a whirl, and found it suited my voice soooo much better. You should never compare yourself to anyone, especially voices. Age, range, experience and vocal health are just a few factors that can come into play, so don’t beat yourself up if you can’t sing a song the same as the artist! You just need to find your own version 💛 #singing #driverslicense #oliviarodrigo #reels #vocaltraining #key #vocals #teacher #training

🌟Student Spotlight🌟 My multitalented student Lucy completed her work on the poem I Have A Little Frog and I think you will agree she has done a fantastic job! Lucy approaches both singing and acting work with enthusiasm and excitement, the support from her mum and dad make my job ten times easier! Well done Lucy - I’m so excited to see what you achieve next! 💛 #student #appreciaion #drama #acting #poem #frog #gestures #lamda #one2one #zoom #singing #performing #performingarts #academy

🌟Student Appreciation Post🌟 Well she’s only gone and done it again! My girl Caitlin absolutely nailed her recording of ‘They Just Keep Moving The Line’ from Smash, proving that hard work certainly pays off. This has been Caitlin’s biggest challenge to date, but her vocal control and breath work has made it seem like the easiest song in the world! This girl continues to surprise me, and I can’t wait to move on to the next challenge! Well done again Caitlin 💛 #singing #singer #smash #cover #recording #blackandwhite #lessons #performingarts #zoom #one2one #drama #lamda

🌟Superstar Student🌟 I would like to introduce you all to my youngest student, Lucy! ✨ Lucy joined me at the very end of 2020, and since then, she has grown into a superb performer. She has performed a poem in front of her family, allowed her mum to record her singing, and she even performed ‘Tomorrow’ in front of her entire class at school! “She would never have done that in the past, very proud of her.” - Mum I’m incredibly proud of Lucy, and I can’t wait to see what else she can do! 💛 #singing #drama #lamda #performingarts #performing #annie #tomorrow #recording #blackandwhite #training #teacher #proudmoment #superstar #one2one

Little improv session with the step-son on Sunday. Proves the power of using gestures and dialogue! And also proves that I’m the luckiest step-mam in the world 💛 Side note - I didn’t make him tell me he loves me 😂🌟

🌟Happy Sunday!🌟 I was looking through my phone earlier and found this video 🥰 When he first started singing I just thought it was incredibly cute... then I realised he was going up the scale! 🤨 Maybe my constant singing whenever he is around is rubbing off? 🤔😂 Anyway, hope everyone is well and looking forward to the week ahead! We’ve got this! 💪🏻

🌟Proud Teacher Moment🌟 Here is a little clip of my incredible student Caitlin singing All That Jazz from Chicago 🎼 The progress Caitlin has made since I began teaching her is amazing, and I am so looking forward to seeing how much more she can do! Well done again Caitlin; you should be as proud of yourself as I am of you. Enjoy! ☺️🌟

Having the biggest struggle working out Zac Efron’s harmony on this song so I thought I’d share it with you all. I promise I know how to sing... usually! 🌟

🌟Happy Wednesday!🌟 I’m planning something exciting... but what could it be?? 👀

Make Up My Heart from “Starlight Express”
🌟Proud Teacher Alert🌟 My gorgeous singing student Caitlin performed a beautiful version of Make Up My Heart from Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “Starlight Express” tonight and I had to share it! Caitlin is a relatively new student and she is moving from strength to strength every week. Very very proud ☺️ Enjoy!🌟
