As a musical actress I know that singing is something you can learn! Whether you are a beginner who is completely new to the wonderful world of singing or someone who already has a lot of experience, but still wants to learn a certain technique. I am here to guide you as best as I can to your goal.

We start our singing hour together with a warm-up of the voice and see what you would like to achieve during that hour: learning to sing a specific song, learning a specific technique, audition training, interpretation, etc.
You determine your own lesson time and I will guide you every step of the way. Together we will look for the right method that suits you.

About Me
I am a professional musical actress, having graduated from the Royal Conservatory of Brussels in Musical Theatre. Since then, I have gained considerable experience in professional musicals in Belgium, such as Mamma Mia, Rent, Legally Blonde, Marie-Antoinette, A Christmas Carol, Hairspray, James & Co, and Pretty Woman.

In addition to my work in the musical field, I have been teaching musical theatre, singing, and acting at the DKO for quite some time. This allows me to incorporate my experiences from the field into my lessons. I find the combination wonderful because it allows me to see people grow and enables me to continue growing in what I do.

Hi!

Have you always wanted to learn to sing?
Is your voice getting tired after singing (alone or in a choir)?
Do you want to be better at singing?
Are you curious about what your voice can do?
Do you sing in a choir and need extra help putting together the material in between rehearsals?

I love passing on the knowledge of my craft. The mechanics of the voice is such a small and intricate thing, and knowing what goes inside our throat and body is a very special experience. I get excited and moved every time a student achieves a new skill, and takes another step towards a deeper understanding of their voice.
On top of my experience as a singer and a teacher, I have a degree in linguistics. That allows me to know exactly what has to be done inside your throat and mouth in order to produce a specific sound. I can therefore adapt to each student: if they have an analytic mind, I can explain what goes on inside and what should be done to improve that. If they have an instinctive mind, I can help with metaphor in order to help the phonation. Or both! My method is multi-faceted because each voice is unique, and it is my job to adapt, and not the contrary.

How does a lesson work?
The first time we meet, we will talk about your journey in the music world. What have you done yet music wise, what artists and genres inspire you, what are your goals. Then we will do what we do in every regular lesson: I will direct you during some warming-up exercises, that include vocal technique work (if you have already warmed up, we just do a few exercises about technique), and then we will work on whatever you want. I ask my students to always come with at least one piece of music they want to work on (or maybe two, depends on the time we have on hands).

See you soon!

Welcome to your ney class! The ney, a traditional Turkish reed flute, is one of the oldest musical instruments in history. With its soft, soulful sounds, the ney holds an important place in Turkish and Islamic culture, especially in Sufi music. This enchanting instrument is not only a medium for music, but also a bridge to spiritual expression.

The ney is closely associated with the teachings of Rumi (Mevlana), the great Persian poet and Sufi mystic of the 13th century. Rumi often used the ney as a metaphor for the human soul. He compared the hollow body of the ney to a human being longing for reunion with his divine origins, producing melodies of longing and love.

In this course you will not only learn the technical skills to play the ney, but you will also discover its profound spiritual and cultural significance. Let the journey begin!

Ney derslerinize hoş geldiniz! Ney, geleneksel bir Türk kamış flutü olup tarihin und eski müzik enstrümanlarından biridir. Yumuşak ve duygulu sesi, özellikle tasavvuf müziğinde, Türk ve İslam kültüründe derin bir yere sahiptir. Bu yüleyici enstrüman, sadece bir müzik aracı değil, aynı zamanda ruhsal bir ifade yoludur.

Ney, 13. yüzyılın büyük Pers şairi ve tasavvuf düşünürü Mevlana Celaleddin Rumi'nin (Mevlana) öğretileriyle yakından ilişkilidir. Mevlana, neyi insan ruhuna bir metafor olarak kullanmıştır. Onun boş gövdesini, ilahi kaynağıyla kavuşmayı özleyen bir insan olarak görmüş ve bu özlemin melodilerini neyin sesiyle anlatmıştır.

Bu derste, neyi çalmayı öğrenirken aynı zamanda onunder derin manevi ve kültürel anlamını da keşfedeceksiniz. Haydi, yolculuk başlasın!
