I am specialized in giving flute, piccolo, recorder, panflute and saxophone lessons to both children and adults. I do this both privately and in the form of (short) courses during school hours or as an after-school activity at primary schools.

I love teaching students at all levels, whether you're a beginner or ready for Broadway. I emphasize healthy, safe and sustainable singing for all of my students. My four tent-poles are technique, acting, repertoire selection and audition preparation. I primarily teach using material from all eras of Musical Theater as well as standards from the American Songbook. I also use art songs occasionally to help students develop their skills.

As we improve your breath support, increase your range, develop your vocal strength and power, and explore the material that fits you best, we will discover your unique, authentic singing voice. Your singing voice should match the tone and color of your speaking voice, and the different registers of your voice should all sound like the same person. Rather than teaching you how to sing like your favorite performer, I am here to help you learn how to sing as the best possible version of yourself. And to help you learn how to do it safely and reliably.

Learning an instrument can benefit your brain, your memory, your physical health, the stress, your mood or your patience. There is no better activity than learning music!

If you are a beginner, in this lessons, you will learn the basic technique and musical terms, and you will develop your imagination and musicality.
And if you are an intermediate or advanced, I could help you improving your performance to be a better musician.

So, if you would like to learn music or improve your skills in a creative and fun way, this is your opportunity!

Guitar lessons at home, I play in a band myself and do jam sessions and I still take lessons myself. Would you like to take lessons as a beginner or intermediate guitar player? Possibly also the possibility to play in the band once

With its own record system and composite techniques, the lessons are suitable for singers from 6 years old.
I also visit choirs and companies on location!
Singing lessons are a party and the technique is made so simple that everyone understands it! And no, you don't have to be able to sing, helps you listen to yourself better and also find YOUR beautiful voice!

Dear students:
my name is Ana and I am a professional Opera Singer, Vocal Coach and Singing teacher.
Counting on a Degree in 'Music-Singing', obtained at the University in Portugal, and two Master's Degrees in 'Singing and Performance' and in 'Vocal Chamber Music', obtained in the Superior Conservatory in Italy, I count on more than 10 years experience performing in big theatres and large venues and teaching singing. In 2024 I have also completed a post-HBO in 'Music Education', at the Conservatory of Amsterdam, in the Netherlands.

In our lessons my aims are for you to:

- feel comfortable with yourself;
- feel confident to sing and experiment in front of me;
- make progress;
- have fun;
- leave the lesson with more knowledge and a smile.

I teach all levels and ages, and I am happy to share and adapt my knowledge and experience with everyone.

Depending on your class level we will design a personalized program for you and set goals to achieve.

We'll work mainly on:

-BREATHING;
-CONFIDANCE;
-PITCH;
-LEGGATO & STACCATO;
-EFFECTS;
-BUILDING A REPERTOIRE (style of your own choice - from pop to rock, or from early music to opera).
