Group Coaching Sessions

Sessions run for 75 minutes, allowing time for a group vocal warm-up, vocal technique training, repertoire learning, group singing, and any questions or feedback.

To make the most of our time together, please be mindful of the start time and arrive promptly so we can begin on time.

The sessions will run from The Centre For Mental Health in the Music Industry.

The address is 33b Shaw Road, Heaton Moor, Stockport SK4 4AG.

The Centre For Mental Health in The Music Industry is part of Heaton Moor Counselling and Therapy Centre. The centre is above Heatons Tandoori – you will see a black door to the right of the restaurant with a small sign with the centre logo on, and a buzzer to press on your arrival. The centre is located on the first floor, steps access only.

Parking: There is free on-street parking on Shaw Road and the neighbouring streets, please allow time to find suitable parking as this venue does not have its own car park.

The final session (performance opportunity) will be at a local venue to be confirmed during the course.

Note: If bookings exceed centre capacity, sessions may run from a central Stockport location by junction 1 of the M60. Any changes to the venue will be confirmed by email ahead of your first session.

Thursday evenings in Stockport from 7.45–9.00pm.

There’s never any pressure to perform as part of the block or at the end of term event. If you’d prefer not to take part in the live performance, that’s absolutely fine! You are always welcome to join the performance evening to support your fellow singers and enjoy the experience.

If you do want to perform, there will be opportunities to join in a few group songs, and you can also choose to perform one or two solo pieces. More details about the performance evening will be shared during the term.

We do it all again! Sessions run in termly blocks, and at the end of each block, a new term will be scheduled. This next term will explore fresh material and technical skills, culminating in another performance evening – giving you a new opportunity to take the stage.

Place are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis once bookings are open, and a waiting list will be available once the block is full.

Don’t worry! Sessions are streamed live to a private Facebook group, where you can also access recordings any time during the block. This means you can catch up on anything you’ve missed, revisit what we’ve covered, or even use the group warm-ups at home for your own vocal practice or performance preparation.

Please bring a water bottle to each session, and something to take notes with if that’s helpful to you.
