In addition to her teaching Sally has been writing and singing as a lead vocalist for over 15 years in many genres ranging from Classical music to Heavy Metal and everything in between! After starting private tuition at a young age, Sally had began gigging and performing by the age of 14, before studying at South Downs College gaining both a Btec and HND in Music Practice. In 2011 she graduated from The University of Chichester with a BA (Hons) in Music with Instrumental and Vocal Teaching.

Along side her private tuition, Sally has worked in many musical settings including with youth groups, charities, colleges, university’s and is the vocal health and singing technique tutor at The Urban Vocal Group where she has developed the “Sing Safe” Syllabus designed to help keep young singers voices healthy. It was here and in her private teaching where she discovered a great need for the attention to vocal health and safety in contemporary singing.

Sally found that new developments in vocal style gave so many more pressures and a higher expectation for the voice which ultimately results in a higher risk of vocal problems for singers and works to bring awareness of how that with the right technique anyone can develop the voice they want and build the strength to keep it for a career and not just one set! It was the need to understand more about the voice which led her to undertake further professional development courses including the Estill: Level One & Level Two (Level 1 Figures for Voice Control & Level 2 Figure Combinations for Six Voice Qualities) Estill: Belting, Estill Advanced Belting, Estill: Tongue Taming, Estill: Breathing, Support and Estill. The Accent Method, Vocal Injuries and Singers, The Rehabilitation of the Injured Singing Voice and Countless conferences and courses held by the British Voice Association and Association for teachers of singing.
