Chanting
How do we feel better in ourselves? Be more ‘in tune’? Chanting does both.
By repeating little jewel-like phrases, the mind becomes quiet, judgement slips away, and the body relaxes. When we chant with others, the vibrations are increased and the positive effects on you, your body and your voice are enhanced. It’s possible to deepen your spiritual connection and to feel centred. A confident and free voice flows from there. Each meeting we practice sacred chants and mantras from different traditions. The songs are easy to learn and there are short periods of silence to rest and recharge. At the end of a class many people say they feel more peaceful and alive. You do not have to be an experienced singer to take part. No need to book in advance, just come! Everyone is welcome. Visit the Diary page for upcoming chanting sessions.

1 to 1
Book a private session with Mary to explore your voice or develop your singing. She works with experienced singers and complete novices and anyone in-between.
A 1-to-1 session means we can focus on your particular needs. We start from where you are and then find different ways for you to sing and sound more. If you wish to discuss your situation with Mary, don’t hesitate to get in touch. For further information see lesson FAQs. There are also practice CD’s available in Mary’s online shop. We can discuss this in your session. Please Contact Mary to arrange your session.

Authenticity powers your sound and unlocks your natural musicality. Whilst Mary’s methods may seem unconventional, they are purposeful. Warm-ups, movement, sounding, singing, chanting, they’re there to liberate your voice!
These workshops are for anyone interested in developing their voice, from novices to professionals. Occasionally Mary offers workshops for experienced singers only.
