Discover, develop and maintain your voice!

I offer singing and music theory lessons for all ages, from beginners to people wishing to join professional singing classes.
and this in various styles of music, from opera to variety through traditional singing, pop music and Gregorian chant.

I also practice vocal coaching for actors, teachers, lawyers ... or anyone else who wants it.

My pedagogy develops first of all on the work of the body with exercises that are inspired by Qi-Qong, Yoga or even the martial arts that I have practiced for more than fifteen years.
These are great ways to develop the muscles necessary for the proper functioning of the voice and breath.
Then, the work of the voice is exercised with a multitude of simple vocalizations to speak and sing with the most ease and the least effort possible.
This can be applied to any style of vocal music since the basis remains the same: voice and body.

I have practiced lyric singing as a tenor for many years already. I started my studies in France at the National School of Music in Villeurbanne
before finishing my training in Switzerland with the Swiss tenor Jörg Dürmuller. Today I have a master's degree in opera at the Haute Ecole des Arts in Bern.
I regularly perform on stage at the opera or in concert, in Switzerland and abroad.

Trained in classical singing and modern music, my lessons are for all those who want to flourish through the voice, because it contains a whole world.

Feel, understand what we say, what we feel and the emotion we want to convey. My singing teacher at the conservatory said ... try not to control your voice anymore, she instinctively knows what is right. And we know it's just because then singing becomes easy, effortless, like breathing.
Do you want to progress and have guaranteed results? To be able to sing in public without the performance anxiety and just be on stage and no longer short circuit yourself with useless and sterile thoughts. To be free, just the public and you... And the message you want to convey?
So we will get there together.
Classically and modernly trained, I was part of a group, The Ladies Sing, which performed several times at the Montreux Jazz Festival. After a large number of solicitations, I decided to embark on the world of teaching. Transmit and share with my students my love for singing, the basic techniques and my experience. Listening to the body, raising the voice, surpassing oneself, while taking care of one's own vocal cords.
First of all, I teach the student to listen to oneself and feel. They are the first keys, the other techniques such as breathing or support come next. There is no point in imitating this or that singer, everyone has their own vocal identity... And it is this identity that I will help them discover.

The singing lessons allow to develop the voice pose, the development of the artistic personality, the vocal technique and the development of the voice through various styles. Learn to master the head voice, chest voice and mixed voice as well as the various types of voice: belting, saturated voice, falsetto,... in order to be comfortable in the different styles!

The body plays a central role in the singing technique. Thus, bodily and sensory work in space, as well as, for some, the development of bodily presence on stage, are themes addressed during the lessons. We will also work on the ear, the accuracy and the improvement of the rhythm, as well as the improvisation and the creation of songs for advanced students who want it.

These sessions allow the development of skills and knowledge of the trade, with the game facing the camera, familiarization with the audiovisual environment and the camera tool, in the art of acting.

Your inventiveness and your uniqueness being at the center of your training, it is a question of dwelling on the objective criteria, such as the voice, the use of the body, the relationship with the partner, the capacity to occupy the space. But it is also the singularity and the commitment that are decisive.

The objective of this training is to be able to:

- Analyze and dissect a text
- Create, develop and embody a character
- Understand the artistic and technical writings of a film or a play
- Create, cultivate and develop one's artistic identity and singularity

(...)

Through simulations and role-playing, the association between theory and practice makes it possible to achieve its objectives.

PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid.

These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). Indeed, they have the advantage of face-to-face sessions (ex: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (ex: the entire session transcribed in writing on the chat). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option.
- As other people do regularly, you can also please your loved ones by offering gift vouchers available all year round.

For any singing practice, whether variety singing (pop, rock) or opera singing, part of the singing course should ideally incorporate practical work on technique and vocal anatomy. I therefore propose to start by warming up the body and the voice, which allows you to connect to yourself, to your breath. Gradually, the intensity rises, we are therefore heated, and we can then approach the pieces that the student wishes to learn. Vocalization is for me a moment with oneself, a kind of mindfulness meditation. Singing causes a very enjoyable inner vibration. Sometimes I like to start with music that inspires the student and build technical work through that. My lessons contain a "music theory" part that I adapt according to the needs and desires of each student. The more the student is aware of his body and his breath, the more he will have control of his voice, and therefore, always more joy! Being a pianist myself, I accompany the warm-up exercises on the piano, which gives considerable support to the student, as well as the songs and pieces that the student is working on.

➤ So, how do you listen and be listened to, convince/persuade and be impactful, challenge and leave an impression, enhance your content, address your audience relevantly and optimize the quality & clarity of the exchange/message? It is precisely a question of going through, applying and deploying practical and effective techniques of oral presentation, simple intervention or 'one to one' exchange, aiming to challenge one's audience or interlocutor, taking care of both the content and the form. , all in a professional or personal setting. Here again, there is a range of precise verbal and non-verbal communication techniques which, once modernized and brought up to date, will be put to the service of your reality. Allowing you to move from fear to pleasure in front of the public.

➤ Thus, mastered, the practical method allows, through a set of simulations and scenarios based on your daily experience supporting pragmatic & concrete techniques, to improve self-confidence, self-assurance, ease by overcoming discomfort and controlling his emotion in public. But also to work on your leadership & charisma, in a context where empathy and emotional intelligence are at the service of communication.

✓Relate their communication objectives (project, institution, values, ideas, demands, etc.) to the form of their expression.

(...)

➤ In addition, you will leave with concrete and immediately useful tools, developed in the form of practical lightning modules: learning to say no, getting a delicate message across, selling an idea, expressing disagreement with an authority, getting a "yes" without upsetting someone, resisting the pressure of a too-quick "yes", calming someone who has taken your words badly (...).

➤ In short, public speaking skills are now an essential cross-functional skill for asserting oneself, informing, negotiating, and persuading. However, to master the keys to successful public communication, it is necessary to enhance the impact of one's own speeches: by structuring one's interventions and taking into account the circumstances and the audience's expectations; by making a lasting impression through storytelling; by integrating the psychological and emotional factors of effective oral communication; by incorporating emotions into the preparation of the message and arguments; by anticipating objections and delicate situations; by preparing and structuring an engaging and convincing presentation outline; by experimenting with the rules of improvisation; and by appropriately managing difficult situations (...).

➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practical exercises adapted to your everyday situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live, to have an external perspective and areas for improvement) , so that you will be able to apply them immediately, and from the first session.

➤Progress following these sessions is noticeable from 2 to 3 sessions (*study 2026).

➤ Make your words a formidable asset. Ready to take things to the next level?

Hello and welcome !

After many years of study and experience as a soloist on the world's greatest stages, alongside leading conductors and directors, I have chosen to combine teaching with my international career in order to share my expertise with anyone who wishes - by vocation or passion - to discover the fascinating world of opera singing.

A solo career is a demanding one: you need solid technique, a high degree of self-confidence, and a thorough understanding of your vocal instrument to be able to manage and care for it. But good technique is just as essential for those who sing for pleasure or in a choir, whether professional or amateur.

Each voice has its own particularities, and together we will seek to respect the nature of your instrument and lay the foundations for a healthy technique, based on correct diaphragmatic breathing.

My lessons last one hour and are suitable for everyone: whether you are a beginner or an experienced singer.

Do not hesitate to contact me for any questions or additional information, in order to design a program adapted to your needs, your pace and your ambitions.

My mother tongue is Italian, but classes can naturally be held in French, English or Spanish.

I offer piano and singing lessons at home in Geneva and the surrounding area, for teenagers and adults who wish to sing while accompanying themselves on the piano or work on a personal repertoire.

These lessons are suitable for both beginners and those with some prior experience in piano and singing. The goal is to create a clear, musical accompaniment tailored to your voice, your skill level, and the songs you enjoy.

We can work together:

the basics of piano to accompany yourself;
simple chords and chord progressions;
rhythm and voice/piano coordination;
harmonic listening;
accuracy, phrasing and interpretation;
the construction of a simple and effective support system;
reading sheet music or chord charts (American chords);
adapting a piece to your key;
the work of expression and emotion.

You choose the repertoire: French songs, pop, variety, jazz, musical theatre, film scores, personal pieces or songs that you dream of being able to play and sing.

I can also support singers who wish to prepare for an audition, a performance, a demo, or a show. The lessons can be focused on piano, singing, or a balance of both, depending on your needs.

My background combines piano, singing, accompaniment, harmony, American composition, ear training, creating shows, and accompanying singers and dancers. I started playing piano at age 7 at the conservatory and studied there until the third cycle, before teaching in Paris and Brussels.

I place great importance on listening, enjoyment, and personalization. Lessons are fully adapted to your level, tastes, and goals. We progress step by step, in a focused yet relaxed atmosphere, with practical tools so you can quickly practice on your own between sessions.

I am currently putting together my schedule for the start of the new term on August 17th, with regular slots at home.

I travel to Geneva and surrounding areas: Geneva centre, Eaux-Vives, Champel, Plainpalais, Carouge, Lancy, Onex, Cologny, Chêne-Bougeries, Chêne-Bourg, Thônex, Grand-Saconnex, Nations, Petit-Saconnex, Meyrin, Vernier, Versoix.

The singing lessons allow to develop the voice pose, the development of the artistic personality, the vocal technique and the development of the voice through various styles. Learn to master the head voice, chest voice and mixed voice as well as the various types of voice: belting, saturated voice, falsetto,... in order to be comfortable in the different styles!

The body plays a central role in the singing technique. Thus, bodily and sensory work in space, as well as, for some, the development of bodily presence on stage, are themes addressed during the lessons. We will also work on the ear, the accuracy and the improvement of the rhythm, as well as the improvisation and the creation of songs for advanced students who want it.

- Analyze and dissect a text
- Create, develop and embody a character
- Understand the artistic and technical writings of a film or a play

For any singing practice, whether variety singing (pop, rock) or opera singing, part of the singing course should ideally incorporate practical work on technique and vocal anatomy. I therefore propose to start by warming up the body and the voice, which allows you to connect to yourself, to your breath. Gradually, the intensity rises, we are therefore heated, and we can then approach the pieces that the student wishes to learn. Vocalization is for me a moment with oneself, a kind of mindfulness meditation. Singing causes a very enjoyable inner vibration. Sometimes I like to start with music that inspires the student and build technical work through that. My lessons contain a "music theory" part that I adapt according to the needs and desires of each student. The more the student is aware of his body and his breath, the more he will have control of his voice, and therefore, always more joy! Being a pianist myself, I accompany the warm-up exercises on the piano, which gives considerable support to the student, as well as the songs and pieces that the student is working on.

Hello and welcome !

After many years of study and experience as a soloist on the world's greatest stages, alongside leading conductors and directors, I have chosen to combine teaching with my international career in order to share my expertise with anyone who wishes - by vocation or passion - to discover the fascinating world of opera singing.

A solo career is a demanding one: you need solid technique, a high degree of self-confidence, and a thorough understanding of your vocal instrument to be able to manage and care for it. But good technique is just as essential for those who sing for pleasure or in a choir, whether professional or amateur.

Each voice has its own particularities, and together we will seek to respect the nature of your instrument and lay the foundations for a healthy technique, based on correct diaphragmatic breathing.

My lessons last one hour and are suitable for everyone: whether you are a beginner or an experienced singer.

Do not hesitate to contact me for any questions or additional information, in order to design a program adapted to your needs, your pace and your ambitions.

My mother tongue is Italian, but classes can naturally be held in French, English or Spanish.

I offer piano and singing lessons at home in Geneva and the surrounding area, for teenagers and adults who wish to sing while accompanying themselves on the piano or work on a personal repertoire.

These lessons are suitable for both beginners and those with some prior experience in piano and singing. The goal is to create a clear, musical accompaniment tailored to your voice, your skill level, and the songs you enjoy.

We can work together:

the basics of piano to accompany yourself;
simple chords and chord progressions;
rhythm and voice/piano coordination;
harmonic listening;
accuracy, phrasing and interpretation;
the construction of a simple and effective support system;
reading sheet music or chord charts (American chords);
adapting a piece to your key;
the work of expression and emotion.

You choose the repertoire: French songs, pop, variety, jazz, musical theatre, film scores, personal pieces or songs that you dream of being able to play and sing.

I can also support singers who wish to prepare for an audition, a performance, a demo, or a show. The lessons can be focused on piano, singing, or a balance of both, depending on your needs.

My background combines piano, singing, accompaniment, harmony, American composition, ear training, creating shows, and accompanying singers and dancers. I started playing piano at age 7 at the conservatory and studied there until the third cycle, before teaching in Paris and Brussels.

I place great importance on listening, enjoyment, and personalization. Lessons are fully adapted to your level, tastes, and goals. We progress step by step, in a focused yet relaxed atmosphere, with practical tools so you can quickly practice on your own between sessions.

I am currently putting together my schedule for the start of the new term on August 17th, with regular slots at home.
