Barbara Ann says, “after all the years I’ve spent training and teaching singing technique the thing that amazes me most is this – kids love to sing, but what happens to us when we grow-up? Somehow we loose permission to use our voice and just close down the part of ourselves that loves to spontaneously music-make. My mission is to loosen us all up so we can experience the laughter and joy that comes with singing for the pure pleasure of it.”
“I was always told I couldn’t sing. Thank you for proving them all wrong. You’ve helped me find my voice and a big part of myself which means so much to me.” Jan, 53, Nurse
“You really took us out of the comfort zone, but with you it was ok, I never thought I would sing like that!” Rene, 36, Home-maker
“I’m shaking right now, I haven’t let myself be heard like that since I was a boy. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to let something out I’ve been holding inside for a very long time.”
Trevor, 38, Builder
“Wow, Barbara you are a natural born teacher!”
