Pop Performance Class
This is our signature kids class.
Pop Performance is so much more than just a kids pop choir!
Professional voice coaching and mini shows
We cover 3 or 4 songs which have been chosen by the children and put together a mini show every term.
Microphone technique, solos and dance routines
They will get the chance to study microphone technique, sing solo lines and learn dance routines. Each session will include games focussing on expression, diction, harmony, rhythmical precision, memorisation techniques, stage craft and music theory.
Build positive relationships
We also place a very strong emphasis on relationship building and encourage the children to share stories, news and ideas in front of their peers each week. This is an essential part of the class as it allows the children to become relaxed in each other’s company thereby enabling them to take ‘safe risks’ i.e. Standing in the front row, singing solo lines, sharing their improvisation, leading a section/group.
Street dance
Kids Classes near me
Street originated (you guessed it!) in the street. It was the dance of the young in America in the 90’s. It has since become one of the most popular dance forms here in the UK and we are lucky to have our super funky Monice who is very talented in this discipline.
Technique
Although street has it’s own terminology for things it does contain plenty of technique too!
I’ve often overheard classic ballet move ‘pas deux bourrée’ being taught as ‘the Reebok’ (Shhhh don’t tell the cool kids!!)

Routines
Some of the routines we’ve worked on in the past have included songs like ‘Havana’ by Camilla Cabelo ‘No Drama’ by Craig David and ‘New Rules’ by Dua Lipa. Check out some of our past choreography here:
Cheerleading is one of the best ways to introduce dance technique to younger learners. It allows you to teach all of the technical rules of angles, positions and postures in a really fun way.
Fun
The children will be given pompoms and encouraged to have fun shaking and shouting!! They all can’t wait to throw on their best American accent and join in the fun.
Learning
During the class they will learn spacial awareness as formations are very important in this area of dance. Positions will be discussed in terms of angles and times on the clock, all aiding their mathematical learning and critical thinking.
Private Vocal Coaching
One to one sessions available
One to one lessons are a chance to achieve new levels in your voice. Whether you are trying to smooth over your bridges to have a stronger mix voice, Improve your range, Control your vibrato or other stylising issues, or simply want to feel more confident when you open your mouth private lessons can be really helpful when you have a goal in mind.
Vocal technique
The techniques I use are a mixture of Estill, CVT and SLS. These techniques have been developed with contemporary singers in mind and focus on the parts of the voice which are often not needed in classical singing.
Adults welcome
I have lot’s of adult students too and love welcoming pros as well as ‘non singers’ Everyone has a voice and we would love to help you find peace with yours 🙂
Price
The charge for one to one sessions is £40 an hour or £25 for a 30 min session
