Illawarra Vocal Academy

5.0 out of 5 (View 6 ratings)

The Illawarra Vocal Academy is a new vocal studio situated in Shellharbour. We offer lessons to cater for all ages and experience levels. We pride ourselves on being up to date on the latest teaching techniques from around the world which we hope to pass on to our students and trainee teachers. We hope to create a community with all our students where everyone feels welcome and accepted.

Teaching Methods

The Illawarra Vocal Academy does not believe in following a set 'methodology'. We train across many disciplines and keep up to date on the latest scientific research to update our knowledge. You can expect to use your whole body in your lessons to learn how to engage and release muscles to ensure you can sing consistently without causing any injuries. We believe vocalists are athletes and need to train as such.
