Personal Description:

You’re here because music matters to you.

Hi, I’m Cal — a Vocal, Performance & Artist Development Coach (DBS Checked), multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, pasta enthusiast, and Star Wars fanatic. Whether you sing, write, perform, or play, you know that music is more than just notes. It’s emotion. It’s identity. It’s connection.

I work with emerging artists, semi-professionals, and working musicians — as well as committed beginners who resonate with a deeper, embodied approach. If you’re ready to explore your artistry with clarity, curiosity, and care, you’re in the right place.

But even with experience, something can get in the way: tension, burnout, disconnection, fear. The voice doesn’t lie — it reveals what we’re holding, where we’re stuck, and what’s waiting to be released.

My work is about helping you move through that. To return to honesty in sound. To find expression that feels like you.

Tutoring Experience:

I’ve been teaching professionally for over five years, delivering 3,000+ hours of one-to-one tuition across the UK and internationally. My students include Brit School and Academy of Contemporary Music (ACM) entrants, working artists, and dedicated creatives committed to refining their voice, performance, and musical identity.

My coaching spans:

• Vocal technique, range, tone, and control
• Performance prep and audition readiness
• Artist development for singer-songwriters
• Songwriting and creative mentoring
• Musicality and expression coaching
• Somatic support for those navigating anxiety, burnout, or creative block

I specialise in supporting neurodivergent musicians through affirming, adaptive, and embodied coaching. While I bring lived experience to this work, these practices benefit all artists seeking greater freedom, confidence, and connection in their craft.

Our Studios are located in both Guildford and Surbiton, students can access structured lesson packages and a dedicated online studio suite via MyMusicStaff, where they can manage bookings, cancel or reschedule lessons, and track their progress — all in one place.

There are no late fees when paying monthly in advance, and if a lesson is cancelled at least one hour before the start time, a make-up credit is automatically applied (valid for up to three months).

The system also includes 24/7 booking, practice logs, and automated reminders, so you can stay focused on what really matters: learning, growing, and creating.

Tutoring Approach:

My teaching is student-centred, emotionally attuned, and artist-led. Whether you’re here to polish your technique or reconnect with your voice, we’ll work together in a way that respects your process and supports your goals.

I use a flexible four-phase structure to guide development:

• Building: Technical foundation and vocal ease
• Balance: Integrating style, control, and musical identity
• Exploration: Expanding colour, range, and advanced tools (e.g. belting, distortion) with vocal health in mind
• Play: Performance coaching focused on emotional connection and creative presence

Alongside vocal science-based pedagogy and music theory, I draw from somatic and neuro-affirming practices to support nervous system regulation and authentic expression. For me, growth isn’t about perfection — it’s about presence, expression, and the joy of showing up honestly in your music.

We are musicians. Music shapes how we connect, how we express, how we understand the world. There’s always another artist to discover, another phrase to write, another feeling to express. That spark — that need to create — runs deep.

Let’s craft your sound.
