Singing Lessons

Music Studio in Crouch End, Central London & Online

At The Hap’ning Place, we believe everyone can develop the technique to improve their singing — and beautifully express the voice from within. Whether you’re a complete beginner or a trained performer, our singing lessons in Crouch End, Central London, and Online help you discover, strengthen, and free the beauty of your voice.

Learn to sing the music you love with confidence — from classical to pop, jazz, musical theatre, or contemporary styles — in a relaxed and encouraging environment.

Free the Beauty of Your Voice

In-Person, Online Singing Lessons

Singing lessons are available Monday to Saturday, daytime and evening, at our welcoming Crouch End studio (N8), with additional vocal coaching in Central London for busy professionals or city-based students.

Our Online Studio also offers the same high-quality experience wherever you are, so you can continue developing your voice from home, lunch break, or while traveling.

Your Voice, Your Style

Every singer is unique.

With individual voice coaching, your lessons are tailored to your musical taste, goals, and natural vocal style. You’ll learn to breathe, project, and phrase with freedom — helping you to sing easily and expressively across genres.

Many of our students work toward auditions, competitions, or graded examinations (ABRSM, Trinity, LCM, or RockSchool), while others sing purely for joy. Either way, our teachers will help you grow in confidence and artistry.

Performance and Community Opportunities

Students at The Hap’ning Place can take part in:

Studio recitals each term, offering supportive performance experiences

Masterclasses and workshops with visiting international artists

Choirs and group activities for those who enjoy singing with others

These opportunities are open to everyone — a wonderful way to practice your new skills and share your music with a friendly audience.
