Sandra has been invited back to work with the River City Chorus again - plans to be made nearer their session!

Women’s singing course
Sat 4th -25th October
10:30am -12:30pm £60
SOLD OUT

4 wonderful sessions to learn how to develop more control, fluidity and range in your voice and how to improve your tone quality and blend with other singers. Good breathing techniques underpin everything and will help support your singing and vocal exercises will improve range and help you move through the ‘break’ in the voice. PLUS gorgeous harmony songs to put it all together. I will pack in as much as I can!

Some choir/ensemble singing essential for this course and you must be able to sing easily in tune.
Booking essential as places will be limited: singingandbreathingdevon@gmail.com

SANDRA’S PREVIOUS COACHING SESSIONS…

  • “Thanks so much for a wonderful session with us yesterday. We’ve had coaching in the past and I’ve never seen anything which has made such an impression.”

    River City Chorus, February 2025

  • “Well what a day we have had with the WONDERFUL Sandra Smith. Honestly she was like a magician and the difference in our sound following her guidance, was amazing!”

    Blackdown Acapella Barbershop Chorus, March 2025

  • “You met our hopes for the start of our day beautifully. It was exactly the beginning we needed. The feedback was that it was glorious. It certainly shifted the energy into the right place and brought us together. I know that people appreciated the warmup and practical experience of stretches that can be done at a desk! Thank you.”

    Talking Heads, March 2025

  • “You absolutely rocked today, Sandra! We all loved it, and you! So clear, joyful and precise. Everyone left on a high!”

    Lala & Big Noise Chorus, March 2025

  • "Thank you so so much for your work with our quartet. It has been so impactful to our sound already with resonance and ringing happening already."

    The Bluebells, competing Quartet May 2025

  • “Sandra spent a number of weeks listening to recordings of us singing and shared her broad plan with me before the day of the workshop. She was able to identify some issues that we weren't aware of, then tailored our session to pull our sound together and lift our performance to a level we didn't know we could achieve. The singers went away saying that as well as a group session, it felt like a private singing lesson.”

    Birdhouse Singers (small ensemble) May 2025

  • “My friend was so grateful to you for your workshop. She regularly sings in the church Choir and really benefited from your advice.”

    Dart Music Festival, May 2025
