The ABCs of Singing

​

At the heart of Mark’s teaching is a simple yet highly effective framework he calls the ABCs of Singing — a step-by-step approach designed to help students understand not only what they are doing with their voice, but why.

​

The three core foundations are:

​

A – Alignment (Posture)
Building a strong, balanced posture to support healthy singing.

​

B – Breath
Developing breath control and support for greater consistency and vocal freedom.

​

C – Creating Sound (Singing)
Learning how to produce sound safely, efficiently and confidently.

​

The ABCs method is based on a simple principle: progress happens step by step. Just as no child starts reading with complex novels, singers benefit from building strong foundations before advancing to more demanding techniques. By developing these essentials first, students are able to sing with greater confidence, control and vocal freedom — regardless of their starting point.

​

As Mark explains:

​

 

“Your voice is a bit like someone training for a race — progress comes from consistency, patience and building the right foundations. You may not become an elite athlete overnight, but by training correctly, you’ll achieve far more than if you never started.”

​

In 2017, Mark’s expertise and experience as a vocal coach were recognised when he was invited to be a judge on BBC One’s prime-time entertainment show All Together Now, appearing alongside well-known names including Geri Horner and Rob Beckett. He was also the lead vocal coach for Evolved Artists and master vocal coach for riverside studio 

​

Alongside private one-to-one tuition, Mark also runs group workshops and leads ROK!T, an adult choir dedicated to making singing accessible, enjoyable and inclusive for everyone.
