Age UK Richmond - 5-Week Ageless Voices Course

Your voice is a reflection of your life’s journey, why not give it the care it deserves?

The Ageless Voices course a comprehensive 5-week programme designed to deepen your understanding and gain skills through practical exercises that keep your voice strong, clear, and vibrant at any age. This course will be taught by Sibel Tuzun, a professional singer and composer who studied at Istanbul University's Music Conservatory and represented Turkey at the Eurovision Song Contest 2006.

In this course, we’ll practice posture and grounding, along with natural abdominal breathing to support a healthy, sustainable voice. You’ll develop greater breathing awareness and practice gentle humming and resonance exercises to enhance vocal strength and clarity. We’ll also work on jaw release and clearer articulation through supportive, easy-to-follow exercises. We will continue to build on what we have established so far. A key focus will be opening the vowels and exploring the placement of back and front vowels. We will also work with how consonants support vowel positioning, and use simple facial muscle work to support clearer, more responsive articulation.

Alongside the practical work, we’ll discuss simple daily habits that help maintain vocal health and promote long-term voice longevity.

The course will run on Mondays from 11.00am to 12.00pm at Twickenham Wellbeing Centre, starting on Monday 11th May. The final session will take place on 15th June. Please note that there'll be no session on 25th May as it's bank holiday.
