Lessons
The Lesson
We suggest the first lesson is 1 hour and then a minimum of weekly 1/2hour lessons initially to benefit from the technique, we have students that come 2 or more times a week and others once a fortnight. It really depends on finance and motivation. In the beginning the teacher will spend the majority of time on vocal exercises to help you to sing in a healthy way and to understand the process of singing. When the singer is grasping the basic concepts they will start to apply them to songs, which after all is the sole purpose of vocal technique...right?
The studio has a wide range of backings and all the teachers can play a basic piano and/or guitar accompaniment. If you have specific songs/keys or originals then you may need to provide a backing, accompaniment or music. Lessons are recorded onto a CD so you can practice between lessons and re visit the instructions.
For those coming to see Line Hilton: Dexter the Border Terrier extraordinaire hangs out with her when she teaches. So far he hasn't wanted to join in, too busy sleeping or chewing a bone!! So let her know if you have problems with dogs, he can be elsewhere.
If you require either teacher to travel to you then there will be a charge for travel time at the hourly rate.
30 minute lessons are also available over the phone, via Skype or iChat with Line only though this is ideally done after a minimum of 1 one2one lessons.
