Kirsty got into vocal coaching by accident and realised that there are a lot of reason why people don't / can't sing. Most of these reason have nothing to do with actual vocal ability.

The most common reasons people have a problem with their voice is down to confidence, or lack of. Or maybe someone said something to them that has planted roots and that one thought refuses to budge.

Not everyone will be go on to be a professional singer but that is not to say that there isn't alot of singers out there that couldn't be if they wanted to with the right encouragement and training. Most of you though, would be probably just be happy with being able to open your mouth and sing with ease.

Kirsty is one of the vocal coaches for Edinburgh council and also has her own classes that she runs for beginners or intermediates and also her own Sing in the City choir.

She teaches in a fun, casual way so the students are relaxed and in no way nervous. In group lessons she rarely hears individual singers voices unless they want to explain something to her.

She is at the moment looking for property so have a base so that there can be more classes to suit every need and timetable.
