Group Lessons for Adults

 

Adult group lessons are held after hours on weeknights. We limit the amount of students in each group to ensure value for money.

Groups lessons are for you if you:

  • want to sing simply for fun and personal enjoyment–as a hobby, you aren't interested in a career.
  • want to sing a lot better–we aren't interested in how talented you are. It is our goal however to take your voice (where it is at) and bring it to it's optimum.
  • have no previous experiencewe will teach you everything you need to know to sing well. You will hear considerable improvement.
  • want to sing in the comfort of a group–you wont be singing by yourself.
  • are exploring the possibility of private lesson in the future–you can start with groups and progress to private lessons
  • want to meet like-minded peopleyou will have a lot of fun.
