PROFESSIONALISM
(Although this information is mainly to help prepare complete beginners. As a condition of working with me I ask all new students – including professionals – to read this page carefully. Many thanks.)
A Professional Attitude Is Essential For Success In Music
Without it, no matter how talented you are, doors will close and you won’t understand why. With it, you will enter a world of limitless possibilities.
Give 100% To Receive 100%
As an aspiring professional singer, developing a professional attitude is much more important than your money, your contacts, your looks, your intelligence, your talent, or your ambition. It’s your invisible passport; an unspoken standard every credible person in the industry will measure you by. Some beginners mistakenly believe the music industry is like going to McDonalds or Sainsbury’s: Pay your money and get automatic service. Music is very different, there’s no automatic entry or service. It’s a ‘people business’. It’s an elite club with an ultra strict door policy: ‘Entry With A Professional Attitude Only’. Your success depends on people liking you. The best way to get to the top and stay there, is to treat everyone the way you want them to treat you. Give 100% to receive 100%.
What Is A Professional Attitude?
Courtesy. Respect. Trust. Appreciation. Optimism. Work Ethic. Good Timekeeping. Honesty. Courage.
What Is Unprofessional?
Arrogance, rudeness, taking people for granted, bigotry, paranoia, extreme pessimism and dishonesty.
Professionalism Means Developing Your Greater Self By Always Showing Your Best Self
MY PROMISE
No matter what your vocal skill level or experience; if you have the wisdom to recognise your life is not a rehearsal; the tenacity to work hard in the present to maximise your future; and the courage to believe in a greater you. I will help you transform your singing and performance skills, and take them to the next level.
Contact me if you are highly motivated, genuinely ready for great teaching and can tell the difference.
YOUR ATTITUDE
My singing lessons are great fun but very intense. Intense, because I inspire and push my singing students harder than any other vocal coach in Europe. I believe your future is limitless and I will help you achieve it. But before we begin your journey I need a short phone chat (sometimes two or three) to be sure of your attitude and motivation:
I will accept you as my student if I’m certain you have the courage, heart and vision to dream big and work hard at building a greater version of you. And if I’m certain you will appreciate my exceptional level of energy and support.
