Professional lyric singer offers singing lessons in Paris in a benevolent atmosphere!

From 46 £ /h

At the end of my professional lyric singing at the Schola Cantorum in Paris, I have been teaching singing on Paris XIVème for four years. My teaching method allows my students to acquire a solid vocal technique by progressing at their own pace in a serene atmosphere. The class begins with relaxation followed by inspired air support exercises. Vocalises are then sung to release the sounds and correctly place the voice before studying the selected pieces.
Looking forward to meeting you during a first class to live this beautiful adventure of singing!
Beginners welcome with joy!

About Me

I am passionate about teaching singing because I have great pleasure in transmitting my technical knowledge in the development of singing voice.

But above all, it's the general well-being of this type of material that I like to teach because singing is a discovery of one's body and self-control. Students learn to dominate their apprehensions, to let go, and that makes them feel great.

I am considered by my students as a patient, caring and caring teacher who adapts to each one according to the needs.

Looking forward to sharing with you a wonderful experience!

Education

I begin my sixth year of singing after two first years in private lessons, two years at the Alfred Cortot Normal Music School and one year at the Schola Cantorum.

Experience / Qualifications

I have been teaching for three years and already have some students who are progressing well and have already gained good support of the breath and good resonance of the sounds.

Indian music is enjoying growing success with Western audiences. Because more and more artists are performing in our latitudes (especially in venues such as the Théâtre de la Ville, the Musée Guimet in Paris, etc.), and also because the discovery of music with a traditional system of learning arouses the interest of many people who would like to approach music differently; and there are many links between the Indian and Western tradition, due to the universal character of music but also to the fact that India has been able to preserve modes of transmission that have long since disappeared in the West, but which have nothing to envy in terms of efficiency. to modern methods.

I propose learning the song of North India, in the dhrupad style, the oldest still transmitted today. Its advantage is that it offers a gradual approach to ragas (musical motifs that could be compared to modes), note by note, without the need for prior knowledge or talent as a virtuoso: the practice is based on the 'listen. Over the course of practice, it nevertheless makes it possible to acquire a great mastery of the voice.

The lesson, which lasts one hour (half for children), takes place accompanied by the tampura, an instrument that gives the "drone" or fundamental/tonic note. It is from this persistent note that the student will learn to place his voice, to find the correctness of tone and timbre. This is done gently, the pace of learning adapting to that of the student.
In addition, the achievements in this style of singing can always be useful later for other styles of music, even outside India, up to jazz and classical/baroque music.
My apprenticeship was for twelve years with one of the 19th generation masters teaching this tradition, Ustad H. Sayeeduddin Dagar, belonging to the illustrious family which made this style and Indian music known in the West in the years 1960. It has now continued for four years with his nephew Ustad F. Wasifuddin Dagar.

Lessons are private, or in weekly workshops in Paris near Bastille (see my website musicosophe[point]fr).

counter-tenor of formation I have a real passion for the song that I like to transmit, I also teach the different breathing techniques necessary for the practice of the song, to learn the musical pulsation to integrate it, as well as the rhythmic music theory are part also from my teaching. Patience and pedagogy are qualities that I think I possess and that allow a relaxed course necessary for singing. Thanks to a work done during 2 years in neurophyscology and speech therapy. It is also possible for me to intervene on blockages created by bad habits installed without our knowledge either by the body or by the mind.

Our teacher using, if necessary, an electro-acoustic guitar to better accompany your voice and guide some of its subtleties, the teaching philosophy is adapted to each level, according to the pace of work and motivation.

Program :
- musical techniques: theory (examples: support, modes, colors, effects such as vibrato, etc.) automatically followed, for each of the exercises, by practice (examples: exercises focusing on accuracy, sound production, "mountains Russian ", time, note hold, diction, vowels etc.)
- work on breathing and breathing management
- body awareness
- stability
- resonance
- improvisation / free expression
- improved vocal comfort
- varied repertoire (adapting to your preference)
- well-being by the vibration of the voice
- personal or artistic development - accuracy, note keeping and precision - vocal modes including timbre
- volumes: softness and power - sound colors: from dark to light - vocal effects, range requirements - nuances: volumes, mimics, attitudes, sound quality - exploration of musical styles (folk, pop, classical, blues, rock, song, World music ...)
- improvisation, effects and vocal games, harmonies
-interpretation: work on emotions, body language, stage presence.

Objective: acquire a solid vocal technique allowing you to sing with accuracy, ease and expressiveness.

Musical learning meanwhile, will develop your ability to listen and reproduce music, your sense of rhythm, your expressiveness, your creativity and musicality as well as reading sheet music.

The work is focused on multidisciplinarity: voice, vocal health, music and bodily expressiveness, with an emphasis on the acquisition of an optimal vocal placement, on stress management in public and on interpretation.

This progressive and tailor-made method aims to develop your voice:
-Breathing techniques
-Vocalises and technical exercises adapted to needs;
- Repertoire work
- Accompaniment for studio recording and scenic performance
-dynamic exploration, diversification and release of one's voice while having fun and going beyond one's limits.

TEACHER / TRAINER

Trained in Grandes Ecoles in France and the United States (Ivy League University), our teacher has specialized and has been working for more than 15 years, in North America and Europe, in the field, in international establishments renowned, and oriented on one axis: effective training with pedagogy and meticulous methodology as the watchwords.

PLACES, FEES
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

I am a jazz singing student in France, where I stayed after a year of Erasmus. I would like to teach my students the art of singing. It should be fun, with the accompanying technology!
Music theory and the more theoretical aspects of music are certainly also possible!

Growing up in the musical world, with a drummer father and a singer mother, Music is an integral part of my life. After several volunteer projects, I was spotted at Disneyland Paris for larger projects (8000 people per evening).
I then obtained a certification as a "Singer in Current Music", with an impressive result of 49.63 out of 50. My last Gala was that of the "Pièces Jaunes" for Mrs. Brigitte Macron. I am also a Vocal Coach, from child to adult. All levels. We work on intonation, emotion, musicality and pronunciation (songs in several languages).
My teaching method? I am convinced that everyone can sing, if they are motivated. It is therefore important for me to accompany my students with tact and enthusiasm. The exercises and songs performed will be in line with the students' desires and needs.

At the beginning of the course we will work on the technical aspects of the voice: Breathing, support, resonance zones, posture, projection, accuracy, vowel opening...using vocal exercises and appropriate exercises.

In the second part we will address the repertoire, including the rhythmic understanding of the songs, the meaning of the text, the phrasing, and the placement of the voice according to the style of the piece.

My teacher's credo

As an opera singer, I have had the opportunity to perform on international stages while continuing to teach, which is a true vocation for me.

In vocal pedagogy, I believe that each student is the bearer of a unique instrument: their voice. This is why it is essential to adapt teaching and methodological tools to the individuality of each student. This approach allows me to conduct my classes in a variety of ways, choosing the most relevant vocal exercises or repertoire pieces to reveal the individual potential of each voice.

My technique is based on:

* in-depth breathing exercises,
* awareness of the whole body as an instrument,
* understanding the biological principles of breathing and its artistic role,
* the development of a free and resonant vocal emission.

My main objectives are to:

* maintain a feeling of high vocal position, awareness of resonant cavities in singing,
* work on the purity and continuity of vowels (legato), work on diction (Italian, German, French, etc.)
* gradually develop the tessitura,
* harmonize and balance the different vocal registers.

Finally, I place great importance on the student's personal development. Building a voice also means supporting an artistic personality: this involves guiding each student toward a repertoire adapted to their stage of vocal development, while nurturing their sensitivity and self-confidence.

[Please note that lessons are only available for serious students looking to be a professional musician or artist]

Katherine has been vocally trained in contemporary for 25 years and studied classical voice for three years. After developing Muscular Tension Dysphonia in 2010 and not singing for almost two years, she overcame this vocal disorder after working with some of the best voice and voice rehabilitation specialists in the UK. This experience further motivated her interest in teaching the following to her students in contemporary voice* using knowledge and training gained by renowned vocal coaches, ENTs and voice rehabilitation specialists:

My singing lessons focus on IMPROVISATION, which is for me synonymous with freedom and musical creativity !

This course is designed for singers of ALL LEVELS wishing to discover or perfect their voice through IMPROVISATION !

In my lessons, you will first learn the fundamentals of singing to help your voice flourish (diaphragmatic breathing, warm-ups, relaxation...).

Finally, if you wish, I can provide a method to effectively record and produce YOUR voice at home!

So, are you ready to sing with me? :)"

Fundamental Thought:
ANYONE CAN LEARN TO SING!
It's important to know this!
The singing voice is part of our human capabilities, it's just not taught in our culture, but EVERYONE can learn!

FOR WHOM:
This course is for anyone who wants to learn to sing, speak in public, or improve their speaking voice.
Children, teenagers, and adults alike, there's no age limit to start learning ;)
Whether you are a complete beginner (and wish to develop a healthy and solid foundation) or an intermediate (to continue to evolve and develop your technique) this is the right place for you and I would be delighted to accompany you on this exciting journey towards the singing voice!

MINDSET:
- First of all, we always work with gentleness, kindness and joy ; )
Singing is a very intimate act, which puts us in a form of vulnerability, so it is essential to work with confidence to feel free to experiment, to make mistakes and to evolve healthily.
The goal is to develop technically and artistically, at your own pace, and with joy!
- It's important to be kind to yourself: learning vocal technique can take time; it requires patience, perseverance, and confidence to see results ;)

POSITIONING:
My teaching method is simple: find what works for you, in relation to your goals and what challenges you.
I constantly adapt my approach and exercises to the student I have in front of me.
We always start from what the body can do (the spoken voice) to take it towards the singing voice.
We never work by force or against the body's natural processes: we always strive for a healthy vocal technique, free from tension and pain ;)

PROCEDURE:
During the first lesson, we will start by taking stock of the situation, seeing what is already in place and what needs to be worked on.
Afterwards :
- Vocal preparation (warm-up),
- Technical exercises (to progress towards the defined objectives),
- Work on the song of your choice (to put it into practice).

*///*NEW: MONTHLY GROUP WORKSHOPS*///*
What is this ?

- A workshop ONCE A MONTH on a weekend (in principle)
- In small groups (5 to 8 people)

How does it work?

A short group warm-up.
You play a song excerpt.
The group and I provide constructive feedback.
You experience a mini individual coaching session (but with the group as an audience and support for objective feedback).
Once all the individual coaching sessions are finished, everyone plays their song a second time and we observe everyone's progress :)

With the following objectives:
- To meet interesting people (other private tutoring students).
- To experience a moment together, in a caring and educational environment.
- Discovering the stage and learning how to inhabit it in front of an audience (posture, attitude, energy, grounding, self-confidence, etc.)
- To work on one's interpretation beyond technique.
- To face the gaze of others.
- Overcoming shyness and fear of judgment.
- To receive feedback from outside sources, other than family or friends, in an educational setting.
- Learn from others and be a learning support for others.

The idea is that everyone learns from each other during this moment of sharing! Pretty awesome, right?!

I hope you will be as excited as I am about doing these Group Workshops!

Terms and conditions
- One session per month (3 hours) if enough people register.
- Between 5 and 8 participants.
- No commitment: you can come once on a one-off basis or every time.
- Open: you can bring a friend who would like to discover singing, try their hand at performing on stage or test my teaching approach.
- Booking required (Place due if cancelled less than 48 hours before the event).

*///*Piano Lessons (Accompaniment)*///*

For those who wish, I also offer lessons on piano accompaniment for singing.
You'll discover the basics of piano and chords (international notation, so no music theory) so you can (eventually) accompany yourself on any song in the world just by reading a chord chart! And that's pretty cool, isn't it? ;)

If you have any questions about the courses, teaching methods, or anything else, feel free to send me a message ;)

Looking forward to working together!

Does your child love to sing and want to develop their voice, gain confidence or improve their technique? Do you want to start singing yourself or improve your skills?

I offer private singing and vocal technique lessons, fully personalized according to the level and objectives of each student, whether beginner, amateur or already experienced.

Each course is structured in three parts:

1. Physical and vocal warm-up
Body relaxation, diaphragm placement, breathing exercises, posture and grounding, to prepare the voice and avoid any tension.

2. Vocal Technique
Exercises adapted to the student's level: breath control, voice placement, accuracy, articulation, resonance, power without straining.

3. Application to a piece
Putting the technique into practice on a song chosen by the student (or suggested) to work on interpretation and enjoy singing.

The styles are open: pop, variety, French chanson, lyrical... according to desires.

In addition, I offer the basics of music theory and piano for students who wish to learn to read sheet music or accompany themselves while singing.

Indian music is enjoying growing success with Western audiences. Because more and more artists are performing in our latitudes (especially in venues such as the Théâtre de la Ville, the Musée Guimet in Paris, etc.), and also because the discovery of music with a traditional system of learning arouses the interest of many people who would like to approach music differently; and there are many links between the Indian and Western tradition, due to the universal character of music but also to the fact that India has been able to preserve modes of transmission that have long since disappeared in the West, but which have nothing to envy in terms of efficiency. to modern methods.

I propose learning the song of North India, in the dhrupad style, the oldest still transmitted today. Its advantage is that it offers a gradual approach to ragas (musical motifs that could be compared to modes), note by note, without the need for prior knowledge or talent as a virtuoso: the practice is based on the 'listen. Over the course of practice, it nevertheless makes it possible to acquire a great mastery of the voice.

The lesson, which lasts one hour (half for children), takes place accompanied by the tampura, an instrument that gives the "drone" or fundamental/tonic note. It is from this persistent note that the student will learn to place his voice, to find the correctness of tone and timbre. This is done gently, the pace of learning adapting to that of the student.
In addition, the achievements in this style of singing can always be useful later for other styles of music, even outside India, up to jazz and classical/baroque music.

Children, teenagers, and adults alike, there's no age limit to start learning ;)
Whether you are a complete beginner (and wish to develop a healthy and solid foundation) or an intermediate (to continue to evolve and develop your technique) this is the right place for you and I would be delighted to accompany you on this exciting journey towards the singing voice!

MINDSET:
- First of all, we always work with gentleness, kindness and joy ; )
Singing is a very intimate act, which puts us in a form of vulnerability, so it is essential to work with confidence to feel free to experiment, to make mistakes and to evolve healthily.
The goal is to develop technically and artistically, at your own pace, and with joy!
- It's important to be kind to yourself: learning vocal technique can take time; it requires patience, perseverance, and confidence to see results ;)

POSITIONING:
My teaching method is simple: find what works for you, in relation to your goals and what challenges you.
I constantly adapt my approach and exercises to the student I have in front of me.
We always start from what the body can do (the spoken voice) to take it towards the singing voice.
We never work by force or against the body's natural processes: we always strive for a healthy vocal technique, free from tension and pain ;)

PROCEDURE:
During the first lesson, we will start by taking stock of the situation, seeing what is already in place and what needs to be worked on.
Afterwards :
- Vocal preparation (warm-up),
- Technical exercises (to progress towards the defined objectives),
- Work on the song of your choice (to put it into practice).

*///*NEW: MONTHLY GROUP WORKSHOPS*///*
What is this ?

- A workshop ONCE A MONTH on a weekend (in principle)
- In small groups (5 to 8 people)

How does it work?

A short group warm-up.
You play a song excerpt.
The group and I provide constructive feedback.
You experience a mini individual coaching session (but with the group as an audience and support for objective feedback).
Once all the individual coaching sessions are finished, everyone plays their song a second time and we observe everyone's progress :)

With the following objectives:
- To meet interesting people (other private tutoring students).
- To experience a moment together, in a caring and educational environment.
- Discovering the stage and learning how to inhabit it in front of an audience (posture, attitude, energy, grounding, self-confidence, etc.)
- To work on one's interpretation beyond technique.
- To face the gaze of others.
- Overcoming shyness and fear of judgment.
- To receive feedback from outside sources, other than family or friends, in an educational setting.
- Learn from others and be a learning support for others.

The idea is that everyone learns from each other during this moment of sharing! Pretty awesome, right?!

I hope you will be as excited as I am about doing these Group Workshops!

Terms and conditions
- One session per month (3 hours) if enough people register.
- Between 5 and 8 participants.
- No commitment: you can come once on a one-off basis or every time.
- Open: you can bring a friend who would like to discover singing, try their hand at performing on stage or test my teaching approach.
- Booking required (Place due if cancelled less than 48 hours before the event).

*///*Piano Lessons (Accompaniment)*///*

For those who wish, I also offer lessons on piano accompaniment for singing.
You'll discover the basics of piano and chords (international notation, so no music theory) so you can (eventually) accompany yourself on any song in the world just by reading a chord chart! And that's pretty cool, isn't it? ;)

If you have any questions about the courses, teaching methods, or anything else, feel free to send me a message ;)

Looking forward to working together!

Does your child love to sing and want to develop their voice, gain confidence or improve their technique? Do you want to start singing yourself or improve your skills?

I offer private singing and vocal technique lessons, fully personalized according to the level and objectives of each student, whether beginner, amateur or already experienced.

Each course is structured in three parts:

1. Physical and vocal warm-up
Body relaxation, diaphragm placement, breathing exercises, posture and grounding, to prepare the voice and avoid any tension.

2. Vocal Technique
Exercises adapted to the student's level: breath control, voice placement, accuracy, articulation, resonance, power without straining.

3. Application to a piece
Putting the technique into practice on a song chosen by the student (or suggested) to work on interpretation and enjoy singing.

The styles are open: pop, variety, French chanson, lyrical... according to desires.

In addition, I offer the basics of music theory and piano for students who wish to learn to read sheet music or accompany themselves while singing.
