SPRING 2026 TOPICS
15.1.
Why does the voice get tired? Basis of sustainable voice use
We explore why the voice gets tired and how you can use it more sustainably in singing and daily life. We practice SOVT exercises, body alignment, and relaxation techniques.
29.1
Support in singing
The voice needs support from the rest of the body. We explore anchors, breath flow control, and how to use movement to support and stabilize your singing.
12.2.
Performance anxiety
Why does singing in front of others feel so nerve-wracking, and how can you practice being more relaxed? We go through strategies to perform confidently and enjoy the experience more fully.
26.2.
Tongue tension
Tension in the tongue affects the sound and feel of your voice. Learn to identify and release unnecessary tension for a freer, more functional singing voice.
12.3.
Learning a song by heart and preparing for a performance
Strategies to learn and memorize the song text and deliver it confidently!
26.3.
Rhythm and internal groove
Strengthen a super important tool in every singer's skills: rhythm awareness and internal groove. This rhythmic compass helps you sound more confident, feel the song’s rhythm naturally, and learn tricky sections faster.
9.4.
More volume to the voice across your range: Twang + support
Learn how to amplify your voice without strain. Using twang, we create a brighter, more projecting tone, while exploring ways to engage large muscle groups to support your sound.
23.4.
R&B- fundamentals
Explore key elements of Rhythm & Blues-based singing (e.g., Bruno Mars, Adele, Amy Winehouse, Alicia Key...): tone, phrasing, and rhythm.

How to find depth in a song and make the interpretation your own. Practice expressing meaning and exploring different perspectives through the lyrics.

How does this differ from the Tuesday evening group class?
The Tuesday group class is a 14-week course with a fixed group. In these sessions, we practice both vocal technique and other skills, and work on songs together, aiming for a performance at the end of the term.
In the Vocal Lab workshops, the sessions are independent: you can join any class without having attended previous ones, and no shared repertoire is created.
9 ja 5 x cards will be sold to current students starting on 1.12.
Drop In - sale starts 1.1.2026!
