I have been working as a singing/music teacher and vocal trainer for over 25 years; since May 2019 I am a voice therapist and since 2025 also a breathwork facilitator. According to my own experience, the musicality of each student increases taking care of his specific needs in a friendly and relaxed way.
A healthy and precise vocal technique allows everybody, regardless of age and musical level, to develop his natural voice and express his own personality. I love working with children older than 6 too and they also have a lot of fun with me!
The breathing and relaxation exercises I use are taken from the “Atemtherapie nach Ilse Middendorf “ (Breath Therapy according to Ilse Middendorf) and far eastern methods like Ki Training or Yoga. I also give vent to my own creativity: in my lessons it can be normal to lay down, move and declaim.
The training of the speaking voice sharpens the articulation, the growing body awareness improves the posture and the presence overall. Let yourselves be surprised from the growing possibilities of your own voice! Not only it will gain flexibility and strength, but also volume and homogeneity (no more difference between chest and head voice).  For the mental training I use, along with the classic mental trainig for musicians, elements of ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy), Quick remap, mindfulness and PMR (Progressive Muscle Relaxation). My professional students also include actors and singers of all genres who perform on TV (e.g. ARTE, ZDF) and prestigious stages such as the WABE and the Konzerthaus in Berlin, the Fusion festival and the Hamburg State Opera. However, amateurs and semi-professionals are also very welcome to join my singing class.

My pupils say…

Cecilia prepared me very thoroughly for the entrance exam for the musical theatre studies. We worked on breathing, technique, intonation, musicality and stage presence, and did mental training to prepare for the audition. It worked! I’ll soon be starting the preparatory course for the musical theatre programme in Berlin-Neukölln! Kai V.

I really appreciate the way Cecilia cares about my musical taste.
I have been looking for a teacher who lets me sing English Baroque music – which i am very passionate about – for a long time. Cecilia even transcribes the arias I am going to sing for me! Juliane H.

As a music producer (hip-hop/rap), I’d always dreamt of finally singing my own songs myself. After a few years of lessons, it worked out wonderfully. Philipp T.

While in Berlin as an Erasmus student I was looking for singing lessons in English. Cecilia helped me overcome my problems with breathing and helped me to discover my resonances. Now I feel more confident singing my own songs. Famke J.

I have turned to Cecilia to solve some technical problems before going on tour with my band. I left feeling more prepared and with a repertoire of exercises for every occasion. Emanuele S.

I studied with Cecilia while I was busy with my choir: we usually went through the scores and I studied my parts so that I could gain confidence. It´s been an experience that enriched me both personally and vocally. Charlotte L.
