FAQ
Yes of course! There are so many benefits to learning singing. From building confidence to impressing your friends and family at events or even Karaoke sessions, having a good trained singing voice will be something special to you. As the human voice is a part of ourselves, being confident of using it makes a huge difference to an individual in all aspects of their lives, as we communicate and use it everyday.

Learning a skill takes time and we recommend consistency in lessons and practise over a period of time for an optimal outcome. We recommend you to sign up for our Term package to see noticeable progress. You will have access to our exclusive student privileges (workshops/masterclasses), as well as multiple performance opportunities. Your commitment time frame is ultimately dependent on your goals – whether taking examinations with Trinity College of Music which we will prepare you for, getting ready for a performance or DSA/college auditions and competitions, or even just learning voice as a hobby. Our students often study with us for more than a year to receive consistent feedback and guidance.

There are typically 3 parts to a lesson. In the first lesson, we start off by finding out more about you – your goals, vocal issues and preferred genre/songs. Then we cover the basics of vocal technique including breathing, warm ups and registration. After this, we will work through a song. Subsequent lessons follow the same format without the discussion. At VOCA, we like to give students some autonomy on song choices (as well as recommending what is suitable at their level).
Please bring along a water bottle to classes. A folder will be provided upon enrolment, unless you have an iPad/tablet to write notes for each lesson. The expectation is that you take notes in class so that you are able to remember better, and know what to practise at home.
