Singing is a powerful movement. It can have a hugely positive affect on a person's mental health, and can even be part of a healing process. I've seen this many times, and that's why I love to provide a space for people to have their vocal freedom.
In 2019, I learned a vocal technique that completely transformed my voice, and increased my range; I couldn't wait to teach it to others.
This technique is taught through the world class Institute for Vocal Advancement (IVA) where I'm completing a 3 year accredited course in Vocal Pedagogy (singing teaching). At the IVA, we teach as we study so we can apply the fundamentals to our students immediately, giving them the best chance to have full control of their instrument.

Music therapy is a research-based practice and profession in which music is used to actively support people as they strive to improve their health, functioning and wellbeing.
Music therapy is the intentional use of music by a university trained professional who is registered with the Australian Music Therapy Association Inc. Registered music therapists draw on an extensive body of research and are bound by a code of ethics that informs their practice.
Music therapists incorporate a range of music making methods within and through a therapeutic relationship. They are employed in a variety of sectors including health, community, aged care, disability, early childhood, and private practice. Music therapy is different from music education and entertainment as it focuses on health, functioning and wellbeing.
Music therapists are committed to supporting people of any age and ability regardless of musical skill, culture or background.
