Lady explaining how the courses work

Our singing lessons for adults take place weekly on a set day and time in our gorgeous premises in Gate Avenue Mall, DIFC.

The lessons are 30, 45, or 60 minutes in duration and can be joined at any time during the year. (Longer lessons can be arranged on request)

We are open seven days a week from 10:00 to 22:00.

Please contact Cristy at enrol@sandc.ae to choose the most convenient time for you to attend.

As all our singing lessons for adults are highly personalized and tailored to the needs and wishes of each student, you are welcome to decide whether you would like to sit the ABRSM grade examinations.

We totally understand that you sing for your pleasure and enjoyment, so this decision is entirely optional.

We do not follow a set syllabus but rather adapt to each of our students, as everyone is different and requires special attention.

We require an initial three-month attendance, as we believe that it is the minimum amount of time an adult should study at S & C to benefit fully from our excellent singing instruction. After this initial period, you are welcome to continue your singing education on an ongoing month-by-month basis.

We need four teaching weeks’ notice to stop your course.


Frequently asked questions

You are most welcome to join S & C even if you are an absolute beginner with no prior musical experience. Our singing courses are designed for adults who are brand new to music, so no previous knowledge is necessary to join. Learning how to read music notation and theory will be part of your singing course, so there is nothing to worry about.

Definitely not. We believe that there is no age limit to learning and enjoying singing for your own pleasure.

Of course! You are most welcome to give it a try and book an introductory lesson to find out if singing is really what you want to do. Be reassured that there is no need to possess any talent to join S & C. We believe that all adults are capable of learning to sing with the expert guidance of our excellent singing instructors.

You do not need to own a musical instrument to start your singing course, as the purchase of the most suitable instrument for you to begin your education can be discussed with your instructor during your first singing lesson. He or she will be able to make a recommendation and advise on the best music store to visit.

Absolutely! S & C is entirely dedicated to adults who wish to sing for their pleasure and enjoyment, so you are more than welcome to join.

You definitely need to practice if you intend to make any progress. Attending your singing lessons will offer you the guidance and feedback needed to improve in the right direction, but personal daily practice is necessary to enhance your singing skills.

It all depends on your current level. As a complete beginner, you can start with 15 minutes each day to get into the habit of practising on a daily basis. It should then increase to 30 minutes quite rapidly as you will need enough time to review and improve the material that has been studied during your singing lessons.

Not at all. All our singing instructors have been selected for their remarkable understanding of adults who sing for their own pleasure. They are, therefore, extremely patient, kind, and supportive. We can assure you that your instructor will never judge, patronise, or criticise you negatively.

Yes, we do offer preparation for the ABRSM grade examinations from grade 1 to grade 8, but sitting the exams is not compulsory.

It is an extremely difficult question to answer as it all depends on your abilities and the exact goal that you have in mind. As per our experience, we can, however, say that you should be able to perform some simple yet exquisite singing pieces after a few lessons only.

The duration of your singing course depends on your personal goal after attending for a minimum of 4 months. Your lessons will then take place on an ongoing basis until you are satisfied with your singing or unable to pursue your education further.

Of course. If you are a proficient singer, we would certainly recommend that you inform us prior to the beginning of your course. It should, therefore, be booked with one of our senior singing instructors, who definitely possess the right set of skills and experience to help you improve further.

Absolutely. We know how daunting it can be for a classically trained singer to step into jazz singing, and we would be delighted to support you in your endeavour.

We are currently working with four singing instructors who have all been carefully selected by our founder Celine Gaurier-Joubert. They are all exceptional singers and instructors with a broad experience in adult singing education and a genuine passion for teaching adult amateur singers.

As we do not follow a set syllabus but prefer adapting to each individual in order to provide you with the most suitable singing education possible, the content of our singing lessons depends on your current abilities, wishes, and style studied.

At S & C, we understand that it can be difficult for some busy professionals to attend their singing lessons on a set day and time each week. We will be happy to accommodate you, but please inform us before signing up as any special request is subject to an extra fee and availability.
