Hi neighbours! My name is Larissa King and I have been teaching singing and songwriting and directing choirs in schools since completing my bachelor of music in 2012.
I have worked with ages 5 - Adult in primary schools, high schools and tertiary institutes around Auckland and Tauranga.

I have recently moved to Wellington and will be running Private lessons from a studio in Brooklyn.

I teach contemporary vocals using the Estill vocal technique which is fun, practical and sees amazing results. I also run a 2-term long beginner songwriting course for children aged 9 and over where we break down and learn what makes a great song (hooks, melody, lyrics writing, guitar, percussion, recording) and your child comes away with a recorded demo of the song we write over the course. (some singing experience required).

If you are at all interested in grabbing a slot for either singing or songwriting or have any general questions - Please send me a message!
