Location & Directions
Step 1: Scheduling
It is recommended that you reach the lesson venue around 10 minutes before your class starts. This reduces the chances of you having to rush due to unforeseen circumstances, and starting your lesson feeling stressed.
If the studio doors are closed or there is another lesson ongoing, please wait at the reception area until you are asked to come in.
Even though we do our best to block in transition times and end before the next lesson, we may end up giving a student a bit more time, so be prepared that we may start a couple minutes late!
Step 2: Prepare 2 Songs
Do you want to improve your range? Strength? Stamina? Pitch?
Pick songs that will allow us to work on that one thing that you struggle with (e.g. high notes, strength, control):
Main song
Backup song
You don’t need to print lyrics or have them on your phone as we will play the songs with lyrics via YouTube on our TV screen.
If you already know what song(s) you’d like to do, you may send the names or links in advance to us via WhatsApp!
Step 3: Bring Water
Stay hydrated!
Step 4: Dressing
We will be taking a video of the lesson for progress-tracking purposes and for you to rewatch it after the lesson, and there’s a chance we may use parts of your lesson for online content. (i.e. feel free to dress up!)
If you are not comfortable with your video being used for content, please let us know over WhatsApp before the lesson.
Summary: Before Lesson Checklist
1. Schedule to reach 10 minutes before your lesson starts
2. 2 songs that expose your struggles or that you would like to get help figuring out
3. A bottle of water
4. Feel free to dress up so you look good on video — let us know in advance over WhatsApp if you’re not comfortable with your video being used for content
