The Helen Astrid Singing Academy

I have been attending 1:1 lessons with Helen over the past several weeks and the sessions have quickly become the highlight of my week. Helen brings her immense talent, expertise, and support to each lesson and has instilled confidence and reinvigorated my love of singing.
