Most recent clients say:
"I have always loved to sing but had no confidence in my ability. I was extremely nervous when I first went for a lesson with Sarah but she put me at ease immediately. She is extremely supportive and encouraging in helping me to stretch myself and move out of my comfort zone. I have learned so much and my singing has improved enormously. A few months ago I would not have believed that I would have the confidence to sing in front of 100 people. She really is a marvellous teacher." Deborah Warman Freed, Massage Therapist.
"Sarah is an excellent teacher. She has been encouraging, enthusiastic, friendly and warm at the same time as demanding and stretching me to reach my potential. I thought that I could only sing in a lower key (no longer being a 'young thing') but Sarah has helped me find a higher range I didn't know I had. I enjoy her sessions and feel a sense of real achievement. As well as improving my voice, Sarah has inspired, encouraged and helped me in writing my own songs." Nicole Greaves, Management consultant.
"In four or five 1-hour sessions with Sarah I am developing vocal
stability, control and a richness of depth of tone that I thought would
have taken months or years to reach, and that feels great". Adam Arbeid, lead singer of Evolver.
