Vocal Coaching

Roz also has experience and skill in performing as a singer, Vocal Coach and Music Leader and has been performing and facilitating fun and confidence through music and voice and inspiring others to sing for 20 years. Whilst this work is often for fun, she is using her voice and music work increasingly in her Personal & Professional Development Training and Coaching world to facilitate discussion, team-building and a sense of collaboration in schools, companies and organisations.

Having performed with many musicians in musical theatre as well as working with jazz bands, swing and big bands all over Europe, in 2000, she set up and run her own pre-school and primary age music group classes , Pipsqueaks Music Classes & Parties, providing children from 0 - 11 with a sound introduction to music through having positive experiences and fun with it. Hundreds of children had the Pipsqueaks experience with Roz and her team, with many of them going on to sing in school choirs, learn instruments and continue to enjoy having music in their lives.

She then went on to set up her own upbeat, funky and inspiring adult choir, The Heart & Soul Choir, which provides adults with a great chance to let off steam, move a bit and have a giggle with music weekly in a fun, light-hearted and friendly way. The Choir is regularly asked to perform at events and never fails to get the audience joining in and smiling, which is it's overwhelming passion.

Roz has also worked as a Trainer for Sing Up, the Music Manifesto's initiative to get more music in the classroom led by the Sing Up Ambassador Howard Goodall CBE, enabling her to get teachers up and singing and encouraging them to motivate the children to join in - a fantastic way to embed curriculumn learning objectives and help the children to build their confidence, too.

Music is a terriffic leveller, and Roz's singing and voice workshops have been a valuable part of her Emotional Intelligence Talks with Teenagers, Adults and children that she delivers. She is usually seen motivating a group of 400+ people to sing at the Vitality Show at Earl's Court every year!

Roz's passion for working with the voice and supporting her clients in their vocal and performance goals is also relevant in her Life Coaching work - without our voices, how will we be heard?
