Singing Lessons for Beginners

What you'll learn

Learn how to sing with our music & singing short courses in Sydney!

Our beginner singing lessons delve into fundamental voice production techniques within a group dynamic, aiming to cultivate vocal freedom and boost confidence in students' voice utilisation. Through this eight-week course, we merge practical exercises with technical insights to enhance your vocal prowess. 

The initial four weeks concentrate on foundational techniques, while the subsequent four weeks emphasise performance skills. By the course's culmination, each student will showcase an individual piece of their choice. These sessions surpass mere singalongs, offering comprehensive vocal education akin to private lessons.

Each class includes technical and musical ideas for exploration and learning, provides an opportunity to ask questions about singing, offers practical application of class ideas, and involves singing songs in a group setting.

Course testimonials

  • said: Good teacher, uses positive reinforcement well, good balance between practice and theory. Draws upon own experiences well to help students. Presentation of written materials might benefit from some polishing but are still appropriate and useful. Really enjoyed the class and would happily recommend.

  • said: Very positive experience - Luke Kent is very personable and an excellent voice teacher.

  • said: Luke Kent was a fantastic coach. His knowledge and personality was a great fit for the course and we all received individual pointers to improve our singing.

  • said: Luke is an excellent teacher and it is clear that he really loves what he does and passes his enthusiasm on to his students. This class was packed with important and helpful information and techniques and explained in a down to earth way for beginner singers. There was also opportunity to sing in front of the class (though no pressure to do so). Highly recommended.

  • said: Although I only attended 50% of classes, I found the techniques Luke taught us, his patience, feedback and positive encouragement excellent. The course was great and the class gelled wonderfully very much due to Luke creating an environment where we felt safe to sing. Unfortunately the room was absolutely freezing ... not a heater in sight.
