About Davina

I am a singer, songwriter, and singing teacher with more than fifteen years of experience in opera singing, contemporary music (pop, soul, jazz), and teaching. My adventure with singing started with opera. For seven years, I learned through private lessons the traditional Italian method with professional opera singer Agnès Chauvot. At the same time, I composed my songs and eventually turned exclusively to modern music. I learned with the "Complete Vocal Technique" and the "Mix Technique" how to use my voice for contemporary music styles. For seven more years I dedicated myself to my band of the time, a pop-soul duo. We had proposals from a major label and labels of different sizes, but our wish was to remain independent.

About the lesson

The lessons are based on different techniques and approaches that I have used to get the best results with my students. - Italian classical technique re-adapted to modern music - The "Complete Voice Technique" - The "Mix Technique" My first goal in my pedagogy is to create sensory memorisation of different vocal and respiratory placements. My job is to give you the right exercises to obtain real progress, regardless of your level and your difficulties. I correct these exercises and by doing so, you will become aware of the good sensations to have. In other words, as you go along, you should be able to feel when you are singing correctly and when, on the contrary, the vocal placement or breathing is not being performed correctly. Repetition is crucial, this is what will develop the muscles in your laryngeal area, discipline your diaphragm, give elasticity to your vocal cords, and develop your areas of resonance. Each person learns differently and I adapt my explanations accordingly. Some people need diagrams, others need a lot of theory explained with words, others are more focused on sensations. Regarding the choice of songs to learn, it is a real exchange, I suggest songs to my students that I consider appropriate at the current level and also interesting to progress on specific elements of their voices. Each song will have specific goals. We usually work on a song for five sessions. Of course, the students choose the song and can suggest songs they want to work on. Typical course sequence: 20 minutes of exercises/vocal warm-up / 20 minutes of singing / 5 minutes of readjustment of the vocal routine to have between lessons. First course consists in a vocal diagnosis which will allow us to set goals together.

Perfect! Davina has really helped me improve my singing a lot. I have particularly appreciated her ability to help me work on my specific struggles with anxiety in regards to singing and how understanding and helpful she has been when I have struggled with certain exercises or songs. I really enjoy the way lessons work as having a few weeks to work on a song allows me to get to a point where I'm happy with it without it becoming boring.

I had a private lesson with Davina and really enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to trying out the group sessions. I'm your typical amateur painter and have been going to classes and workshops throughout the years but Davina's lessons are quite special. I now keep an inspiration folder ;)

Davina is an amazing teacher, I took her video course as well and it's just awesome! My voice has improved so much, she really knows how to guide you and challenge you. It's been really fun developing my own style and singing in styles I would never have thought of. Can't recommend her enough!
