Why choose ABP Music Studio?
What makes Anna's approach to teaching special and right for you?
ABP Music Studio is an online voice and songwriting studio designed to empower teenagers and adults who identify as women, queer, trans and/or non-binary on their singing journey. If you resonate with the values and goals of ABPMS, perhaps it's the right space for you! Get in touch :) Here are some central pillars of how what I have to offer as a voice teacher might be right for you...
Queer Affirming Space
You are welcome here just as you are. I will cherish your pronouns and name, honour your story, and maybe we can just smash the hetero-patriarchy a bit by diving into the radical act of honouring and celebrating your wonderful queer voice!
Trauma-informed lessons
Learn from a teacher who is passionate about self-care, mental-health, and who has lived experience of the profound connection between mental health and singing. You will not be shamed, intimidated, or made to feel small here.
Teaching artist
Learn healthy, freeing technique for a variety of genres from a teacher who is a performing artist as well as a teacher.
Different genres
Strengthen a healthy, freeing, authentic singing technique that will apply to whatever genre you love most. As an interdisciplinary singer herself, Anna is delighted to share how her studies in classical singing and experience in pop, indie, and folk singing influence each other positively!
