Client stories

 

“I’ve been having lessons with Katy for the last few months in preparation for drama school and it’s been so helpful having a teacher who knows so much about the industry and the technicalities of singing. In just a few months I’ve learnt so much about the voice and it has really helped me improve my singing abilities. Not only that but she is the loveliest person, and is so good at approaching techniques in different ways to find what works for you. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a singing teacher!”

— Molly


 

“I have enjoyed having regular lessons with Katy since 2018. After having had previous classical training I was looking to develop new technique and work on my Musical Theatre Rep and was so pleased to have found the perfect teacher to help in Katy! In the time I have been working with Katy she has has helped me to make considerable improvement in my range and technique and has always given me wonderful guidance with projects and auditions. Katy is not only an inspiring performer but an encouraging and knowledgeable teacher to learn from and her passion for singing and teaching shines through in every lesson!”

I am an experienced singer and have been having lessons with Katy to work in my belt voice. She is an incredible teacher as well as a very experienced, amazing professional! She really knows her stuff and is a very knowledgeable technician, constantly researching and learning, then passing on what she knows. She is patient, encouraging and has got me singing like I’ve never sung before! Can’t recommend her enough!
