Singing Classes with Femke: pop-soul-jazz-musical.
From 69.96 C$ /h
I believe singing should equal, enjoyment and pleasure. And that is exactly the way I wish to keep it for you.
My job as a teacher is to help you grow your skillset inside of doing what you love.
I am a Jazz singer graduate from the Conservatory of Amsterdam, now living in Helsinki and eager to share the happiness of music.
Tell me what style, songs, or musicians you love and together we can build a growth plan for you to broaden your repertoire and fuel your toolkit as a singer. The styles I cover are; Jazz - soul - pop - musical.
We could be working on that one high note you want to pitch, on that specific atmosphere you want to bring forth in your performance, or on the rhythmic feel of a certain song. We can also work on your posture while singing, your breathing, and how to stand comfortably in front of an audience. :)
Also, if you are a songwriter (experienced or beginner or a little shy) and you need some tips or advice in your writing process? Bring your songs to class and I'll happily help you with some tips and tricks that might perhaps also work for you so you can get yourself back on track. Songwriting can be a beautiful, personal process and sometimes you need an eye from the outside to unravel the unclearities.
So, that's it! If you'd love to get better at singing or enjoy singing some songs next to your everyday life. Send me a message and let's see what we can do.
Note:
Looking forward to hearing from you!

About Me
I am a flexible teacher. The most important thing for me is that the student discovers music from his / her point of view and can fully enjoy it even during technical moments. Explaining why you do certain exercises makes exercises more interesting and gives a student more understanding / feeling for the instrument.
The voice is a very personal thing and every student needs different exercises to develop it well.
Nobody can sing without warming up. The lesson will therefore always consist of a part warming up and a part repertoire.
The repertoire is all up to you;). Come with pieces that appeal to you and make you happy. If you know about chords, bring them with me then I will accompany you on the piano. If not, I will sort them out by next lesson. Handy for me to know in advance which piece you want to handle.
Are you a singer-songwriter? Also completely welcome!
I write a lot of texts and make my own songs. I can help you find the right chords, the shape and structure of your pieces and the message you want to put in them.
