About

About	If you are looking for someone who is open for more than one genres and who is coaching your acting skills as well, look no further! I provide professional Singing lessons to students of all ages and abilities in the Derby area. (DE1) I have started to take jazz lessons in 2009 at a very early age, later I turned to soul and swing but never forgot my roots in theatre so then I have been declared as a musical actor (screen and stage) in 2014, Budapest at Shakespeare Academy of Theatre & Arts where I was trained in classical singing and Broadway style musical theatre singing. As a singer, songwriter and co-writer I have experiences with bands from the indie, rock and prog-rock scene as well. During all this period of learning I found it fascinating how our nervous system and our personalities can show, grow and shine through our vocal journey so I started to take private lessons from neurologists to get a better knowledge of how our brain works while vocalizing happens. Studying your singing persona is just so exciting and educative. Like therapy. So if you have any goals with singing, I am confident saying out loud that many other goals in life will be easier to approach if you try my method!

Performance Opportunities, Performance Coaching & Accompaniment Services	I am organizing plenty of concerts, charity galas and events where my Skylarks (my dear students) are able to perform. The first ever Skylark Concert of my UK based students took place in Darley Abbey Village Hall in 2023. For these concerts we practice songs from several genres such as swing, pop, rock, jazz, musical theatre and many others, so everyone in the audience can find something to hum along. My Nest of Skylarks is such a loving community of kind and gifted people, so I can not wait to see them shining on stage as many times as possible.
