About Me

Following an accident, I lost my head voice and also had significant problems with my chest voice. I consulted a speech therapist, and after several years of exercises and rehabilitation, I was able to recover my voice. This accident, however, helped me identify voice and posture issues in others. I subsequently developed these exercises, which concretely help people regain their vocal potential. Thanks to this experience, I can now also help people who have lost their voice due to trauma.

Education

For 10 years I sang in a pop-rock band before becoming interested in Baroque music and 15th and 16th-century folk music. I trained at the conservatory in the 15th arrondissement of Paris. My teachers included Alain Aubin, countertenor; Sandra Eleazar, a graduate of the Paris Conservatory; Muriel Stibbe, a professor at the Nanterre Conservatory; and Agnes Mellon, a soprano specializing in Baroque repertoire.

76.26 C$ /h

counter-tenor of formation I have a real passion for the song that I like to transmit, I also teach the different breathing techniques necessary for the practice of the song, to learn the musical pulsation to integrate it, as well as the rhythmic music theory are part also from my teaching. Patience and pedagogy are qualities that I think I possess and that allow a relaxed course necessary for singing. Thanks to a work done during 2 years in neurophyscology and speech therapy. It is also possible for me to intervene on blockages created by bad habits installed without our knowledge either by the body or by the mind.

TEACHER / TRAINER

Trained in Grandes Ecoles in France and the United States (Ivy League University), our teacher has specialized and has been working for more than 15 years, in North America and Europe, in the field, in international establishments renowned, and oriented on one axis: effective training with pedagogy and meticulous methodology as the watchwords.

PLACES, FEES
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

I am a jazz singing student in France, where I stayed after a year of Erasmus. I would like to teach my students the art of singing. It should be fun, with the accompanying technology!
Music theory and the more theoretical aspects of music are certainly also possible!

Growing up in the musical world, with a drummer father and a singer mother, Music is an integral part of my life. After several volunteer projects, I was spotted at Disneyland Paris for larger projects (8000 people per evening).
I then obtained a certification as a "Singer in Current Music", with an impressive result of 49.63 out of 50. My last Gala was that of the "Pièces Jaunes" for Mrs. Brigitte Macron. I am also a Vocal Coach, from child to adult. All levels. We work on intonation, emotion, musicality and pronunciation (songs in several languages).
My teaching method? I am convinced that everyone can sing, if they are motivated. It is therefore important for me to accompany my students with tact and enthusiasm. The exercises and songs performed will be in line with the students' desires and needs.

My teacher's credo

As an opera singer, I have had the opportunity to perform on international stages while continuing to teach, which is a true vocation for me.

In vocal pedagogy, I believe that each student is the bearer of a unique instrument: their voice. This is why it is essential to adapt teaching and methodological tools to the individuality of each student. This approach allows me to conduct my classes in a variety of ways, choosing the most relevant vocal exercises or repertoire pieces to reveal the individual potential of each voice.

My technique is based on:

* in-depth breathing exercises,
* awareness of the whole body as an instrument,
* understanding the biological principles of breathing and its artistic role,
* the development of a free and resonant vocal emission.

My main objectives are to:

* maintain a feeling of high vocal position, awareness of resonant cavities in singing,
* work on the purity and continuity of vowels (legato), work on diction (Italian, German, French, etc.)
* gradually develop the tessitura,
* harmonize and balance the different vocal registers.

Finally, I place great importance on the student's personal development. Building a voice also means supporting an artistic personality: this involves guiding each student toward a repertoire adapted to their stage of vocal development, while nurturing their sensitivity and self-confidence.

Hello!
I am a classically trained singer with a DEM in Singing and a Bachelor's degree in Musicology. Specializing in breath and breathing techniques as well as singer's posture, I also have Feldenkrais training.
Having returned to Paris after teaching singing at the Münchner Musikhoschule and the Genima Musikinstitut in Munich, Germany, I have been giving lessons in operatic singing and vocal technique for 20 years.

Beginners are welcome!

I teach in a cheerful atmosphere. The relaxed approach to singing within a rigorous yet supportive framework quickly leads us to the pleasure of fully expressing ourselves and freeing our voices while developing our personalities.

Breath control and vocal technique mastery bring confidence and motivation. Students will be able to discover the full range of their vocal tessitura and develop their vocal abilities, enabling them to sing with pleasure and ease, and to freely express their interpretation.

Each lesson begins with body awareness and posture, coordination and freedom of movement. We then "awaken" our breath to establish deep, low diaphragmatic breathing.
Vocal work begins with phonation exercises to connect breath and vocal production, and vocal exercises to place one's voice.
The second part of the lesson is devoted to singing a piece and its interpretation.

I also support you in preparing for your auditions and competitions,
offers coaching to learn how to assert yourself and gain confidence and stage presence.

I regularly organize sessions with a pianist to sing along to the pieces I've worked on!

I teach lyrical singing during a lesson which is broken down into two sequences: first work on pure technique, based on muscular coordination with breath, breathing and posture. Then, depending on the student's level, interpretation work on one or more pieces, putting the technique into practice, to which we add actual musical work.

Fundamental Thought:
ANYONE CAN LEARN TO SING!
It's important to know this!
The singing voice is part of our human capabilities, it's just not taught in our culture, but EVERYONE can learn!

FOR WHOM:
This course is for anyone who wants to learn to sing, speak in public, or improve their speaking voice.
Children, teenagers, and adults alike, there's no age limit to start learning ;)
Whether you are a complete beginner (and wish to develop a healthy and solid foundation) or an intermediate (to continue to evolve and develop your technique) this is the right place for you and I would be delighted to accompany you on this exciting journey towards the singing voice!

MINDSET:
- First of all, we always work with gentleness, kindness and joy ; )
Singing is a very intimate act, which puts us in a form of vulnerability, so it is essential to work with confidence to feel free to experiment, to make mistakes and to evolve healthily.
The goal is to develop technically and artistically, at your own pace, and with joy!
- It's important to be kind to yourself: learning vocal technique can take time; it requires patience, perseverance, and confidence to see results ;)

POSITIONING:
My teaching method is simple: find what works for you, in relation to your goals and what challenges you.
I constantly adapt my approach and exercises to the student I have in front of me.
We always start from what the body can do (the spoken voice) to take it towards the singing voice.
We never work by force or against the body's natural processes: we always strive for a healthy vocal technique, free from tension and pain ;)

PROCEDURE:
During the first lesson, we will start by taking stock of the situation, seeing what is already in place and what needs to be worked on.
Afterwards :
- Vocal preparation (warm-up),
- Technical exercises (to progress towards the defined objectives),
- Work on the song of your choice (to put it into practice).

PIANO (Accompaniment):
For those who wish, I also offer lessons on piano accompaniment for singing.
You'll discover the basics of piano and chords (international notation, so no music theory) so you can (eventually) accompany yourself on any song in the world just by reading a chord chart! And that's pretty cool, isn't it? ;)

If you have any questions about the course, the teaching methods, or anything else, feel free to send me a message ;)

Looking forward to working together!
Axel

Does your child love to sing and want to develop their voice, gain confidence or improve their technique? Do you want to start singing yourself or improve your skills?

I offer private singing and vocal technique lessons, fully personalized according to the level and objectives of each student, whether beginner, amateur or already experienced.

Each course is structured in three parts:

1. Physical and vocal warm-up
Body relaxation, diaphragm placement, breathing exercises, posture and grounding, to prepare the voice and avoid any tension.

2. Vocal Technique
Exercises adapted to the student's level: breath control, voice placement, accuracy, articulation, resonance, power without straining.

3. Application to a piece
Putting the technique into practice on a song chosen by the student (or suggested) to work on interpretation and enjoy singing.

The styles are open: pop, variety, French chanson, lyrical... according to desires.

In addition, I offer the basics of music theory and piano for students who wish to learn to read sheet music or accompany themselves while singing.
