Ups and Downs Southwest is a local charity supporting children and young people with Down Syndrome. The Covid-19 situation has meant that many of their fundraising events have been cancelled this year and this leaves them without vital funds to commit to any Family Events in 2021 and beyond. 

I am offering 21, one hour,  on-line vocal and performance coaching sessions at the cost of £21 each.  I have been involved in harmony singing for 35 years and I am currently the Musical Director of a 60 strong, all female barbershop chorus based in South Gloucestershire. I have been coaching ensembles both here in the UK and the Netherlands for the last 10 years. I would like to put our new found ways of remote working to good use coupled with my skills as a vocal coach and raise money for this amazing charity.  

Sessions will last one hour and can be booked at a time that is convenient for you.  Zoom is the preferred platform in terms of effectivness but can also take place on Skype if preferred. The sessions are open to individuals who wish to improve their own vocal or performance techniques. 

To book a session, use the donate button and pay £21.  Then email me at jo.thorn23@gmail.com to arrange a time and we can open up a dialogue regarding what you would like to achieve from the session. 

Improve your singing, make a difference to the lives of children and young people who have Down Syndrome - definitely a win win situation.
