About Me

 
 
 

Hi, I’m Gemma.


I’m a contemporary vocal coach, certified Vocal Habilitation Professional, and Buteyko Breathing Instructor. I specialise in helping adult singers online overcome vocal challenges, build healthy technique, and reconnect with the joy of singing.

I work with singers at all stages: from seasoned performers recording albums or appearing in the West End, to those rediscovering music later in life. What my clients share is a passion for singing and a desire to feel more confident, free, and creative with their voices.

My Journey with Singing

I didn’t come into coaching because I found singing easy- far from it. Like so many singers, I spent years struggling with my voice searching for answers and trying different approaches. Many of them helped a great deal, but I still felt that something wasn’t right. Singing often felt harder than it should, and I sensed it wasn’t just a matter of learning more technique.

I always loved the transformative nature of vocal coaching and found it extremely rewarding to help singers experience this for themselves. However in 2023, I discovered something that shifted everything: I finally understood what my voice had really needed all along. That discovery came when I learned I was tongue tied. You can read more about my journey here.

This combined with being hypermobile, has given me a deep awareness of how the body and voice are connected. Navigating those challenges has shaped both my personal singing journey and the way I coach. It’s taught me that singing isn’t just about sound- it’s about the whole body, the way we breathe, move, and feel.

How I Coach

That turning point didn’t just transform my singing- it added a whole new dimension to my coaching. Today, my work is more holistic, combining:

  • Evidence-based vocal technique

  • Buteyko breathing for singers

  • Vocal health practices

  • Creative exploration and confidence-building

I don’t believe in “one-size-fits-all” singing lessons. Instead, I meet you where you are, listen to your goals, and tailor sessions to what your voice and body need most.

Why Singers Work With Me

Most of all, I want singers to know that it’s OK if you are not the textbook example of what a singer should be. Whether you’re preparing for a professional performance or simply want to enjoy singing without strain or frustration, I’ll support you every step of the way.

When I’m not coaching, you’ll usually find me rehearsing with my covers band, strength training at the gym, or out walking my Jack Russell, Roxy.
