You will also learn proper vocal techniques and learn how to use your voice correctly. Your instructor will help you with your posture, resonance and breath support, among many other important vocal technique-related things.<\/p>\n<h3>Get a solid understanding of the 12-bar blues and how to improvise vocally around it!<\/h3>\n<p>The 12-bar blues is the most common form when it comes to singing and playing the blues. As a blues singer, you need to immerse yourself in the 12-bar blues and understand the cycles within the 12 bars. The first four bars is the introduction, after that, we have some development and finally, we get the climatic turnaround that leads us back to the beginning.<\/p>\n<p>As a blues singer, you must understand how to phrase your lines and licks with style and attitude. You must also be able to hit exactly the right notes at the right time when the harmonies change. Blues may seem easy, but to sing the blues really well requires expert blues voice lessons.<\/p>\n<p>At the London Singing Institute, we make absolutely certain that you learn all the correct techniques from day one.<\/p>\n<p>We never compromise on foundations and make sure that you get to know the blues inside out!<\/p>\n<ul style=\"--awb-size:15px;--awb-iconcolor:#000000;--awb-line-height:25.5px;--awb-icon-width:25.5px;--awb-icon-height:25.5px;--awb-icon-margin:10.5px;--awb-content-margin:36px;\" class=\"fusion-checklist fusion-checklist-1 fusion-checklist-default type-icons\"><li class=\"fusion-li-item\" style=\"\"><span class=\"icon-wrapper circle-no\"><i class=\"fusion-li-icon fa fa-check\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><div class=\"fusion-li-item-content\">Develop an excellent blues vocal tone<\/div><\/li>\n<li class=\"fusion-li-item\" style=\"\"><span class=\"icon-wrapper circle-no\"><i class=\"fusion-li-icon fa fa-check\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><div class=\"fusion-li-item-content\">Gain flexibility and experience<\/div><\/li>\n<li class=\"fusion-li-item\" style=\"\"><span class=\"icon-wrapper circle-no\"><i class=\"fusion-li-icon fa fa-check\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><div class=\"fusion-li-item-content\">Increase and smooth out your vocal range<\/div><\/li>\n<li class=\"fusion-li-item\" style=\"\"><span class=\"icon-wrapper circle-no\"><i class=\"fusion-li-icon fa fa-check\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><div class=\"fusion-li-item-content\">Learn how to bring out raw blues emotion in your voice, including how to do a blues vocal growl<\/div><\/li>\n<li class=\"fusion-li-item\" style=\"\"><span class=\"icon-wrapper circle-no\"><i class=\"fusion-li-icon fa fa-check\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><div class=\"fusion-li-item-content\">Learn how to do a proper blues vibrato that is essential for blues singing!<\/div><\/li>\n<li class=\"fusion-li-item\" style=\"\"><span class=\"icon-wrapper circle-no\"><i class=\"fusion-li-icon fa fa-check\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><div class=\"fusion-li-item-content\">Learn the secrets of how to bring out your own unique blues voice full of passion as per the blues masters!<\/div><\/li>\n<li class=\"fusion-li-item\" style=\"\"><span class=\"icon-wrapper circle-no\"><i class=\"fusion-li-icon fa fa-check\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><div class=\"fusion-li-item-content\">Discover your unique blues voice<\/div><\/li>\n<li class=\"fusion-li-item\" style=\"\"><span class=\"icon-wrapper circle-no\"><i class=\"fusion-li-icon fa fa-check\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><div class=\"fusion-li-item-content\">Prepare for performing in front of an audience<\/div><\/li><li class=\"fusion-li-item\" style=\"\"><span class=\"icon-wrapper circle-no\"><i class=\"fusion-li-icon fa fa-check\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><div class=\"fusion-li-item-content\">Study in a non-judgmental and encouraging environment<\/div><\/li><li class=\"fusion-li-item\" style=\"\"><span class=\"icon-wrapper circle-no\"><i class=\"fusion-li-icon fa fa-check\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><div class=\"fusion-li-item-content\">Make fast progress thanks to our wonderful result-oriented methods<\/div><\/li><\/ul><div class=\"fusion-sep-clear\"><\/div><div class=\"fusion-separator fusion-full-width-sep\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;margin-top:20px;width:100%;\"><\/div><div class=\"fusion-sep-clear\"><\/div>\n<p>At the London Singing Institute, we welcome adults from all walks of life to attend exceptional blues-singing courses with highly qualified and experienced singing instructors.

or 60 minutes, and our singing courses can be joined <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">at any time<\/span> during the year.<\/p>\n<p>For intensive courses, we usually arrange between three to seven lessons of 45 minutes per week.<\/p>\n<p>As various slots are available during workdays up to 22:00 as well as on Saturdays, please contact our manager Stefan at <a href=\"mailto:enrol@londonsinginginstitute.co.uk\">enrol@londonsinginginstitute.co.uk<\/a> to choose the most convenient time for you to attend.<\/p>\n<p>As all our singing lessons for adults are highly personalised and tailored to the needs and wishes of each, you are welcome to decide whether you would like to sit the ABRSM grade examinations.<\/p>\n<p>We totally understand that you sing for your pleasure so this decision is totally optional.<\/p>\n<p>We do not follow a set syllabus but rather adapt to each of our students as everyone is different and needs special attention.<\/p>\n<p>We require an initial three-month attendance as we believe that it is the minimum amount of time an adult should study at The London Singing Institute to benefit fully from our excellent singing instruction.<\/p>\n<p>After this initial period, you are welcome to continue your singing education on an on-going basis.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to do longer weekly sessions such as 90 or 120 minutes per week, please do ask and we will do our best to arrange a course tailored to your requirements.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"fusion-sep-clear\"><\/div><div class=\"fusion-separator fusion-full-width-sep\"
