ABOUT RACHEL LYNES
Rachel is a London based vocal coach and singing teacher, fondly named, "the voice whisperer," by the singers she works with, due to her rigorously technical yet accessible approach to singing training which is based on the belief that you must understand your instrument in order to set it free and allow you to give yourself over to the music. Her studio is in South West London but she also teaches in Central London, at The Actor's Centre and at the Theatre Royal Haymarket. She works with recording artists and West End performers and has been studying the voice for over 20 years. As a performer, she spent 10 years playing leading roles in the West End and internationally. She is also the founder of The Sing Space , a busy voice studio, which matches singers with some of London's top coaches.

A message from Rachel...
"As a singer, my career was almost stopped before it began when I developed vocal nodules during training. Suddenly, I couldn't express myself as I was used to, I could hardly remember how to sing. With my dreams slipping out of reach, I went on a mission, digging deeper and deeper into the mysteries of how our instrument works. By the time my vocal problems were solved, I had sought help from some the UK's best singing teachers and vocal coaches, including Penni Harvey-Piper and Mark Meylan. I explored everything recommended to me: from speech therapy, to larynx physiotherapy, to hypnotherapy, and nutrition, and that was just the beginning!
When I started coaching, I assumed that I would be focusing on musicality, conveying emotion through music and on finding that "special something," but, during early coaching sessions, I realised that you can't access that "something" if your instrument isn't working productively. Try as you might to give into musicality, or to pour your heart through the song, you can't do it if you have technical obstructions.
Your voice is the only instrument that you can't see or hold in your hand so many singers find the wonder that is, "the voice," an ambiguous and often confusing thing. My methods and techniques clarify and simplify your approach to strengthening your singing technique, understanding how your instrument works, and showing you which muscles to release and which to strengthen to allow the vocal system to work at it's most productive and free.
Together, we will move towards the goal of a complete and transformative musical experience for both singer and listener, when all comes together: the instrument and the soul and story behind in."
"One of the best singing teachers in London. No seriously... Amazing!" Sarah Bowden, (Cassie, A Chorus Line, The Hollywood Bowl)
"Even after years of singing, I still learn great technique from Rachel." Kerry O'Dowd, The Voice BBC.
"Rachel's a miracle worker. She can literally transform your voice" Andrea Haralambides, singer, London.
"Rachel is, without doubt, one of the best singing teachers I have ever worked with. She is incredibly gifted, patient, generous and makes learning a joy. She has a knack for demystifying what can sometimes be a confusing subject. I've learnt more on her twelve week course than I thought possible in such a short time frame. I'm hugely excited for the second term." Emma Deegan, Actress, The Mousetrap. West End.
