How It Works

Our program is divided into 5 levels, with 25 hands-on workshops per level, totaling 500 hours of teacher training. The program features comprehensive in-studio workshops, and all exercises are demonstrated with detailed vocal and hands-on cueing.

After completing each level, you’ll have 4 to 5 weeks to practice and teach before taking the level test. Passing the test allows you to advance to the next level.
