Holistic VOCAL COACHING, GROUNDED IN voice SCIENCE + ARTISTic freedom

Do you think vocal technique is about rights and wrongs? Think again!

Freya Astrella believes that every human being has the right to take up sonic space, and that every singer should be empowered to make their own artistic choices.

With teaching spaces in Seaford and Eastbourne in East Sussex, Freya will guide you as you develop your authentic sound, strengthen your voice, and build your self-worth.

Are you ready to find out what you and your voice are capable of?

Singing lessons in seaford and eastbourne

Whether you’re a proficient singer looking to upgrade your vocal chops, or a nervous beginner seeking your true sound, I can help serve as your vocal coach in friendly one-to-one sessions in Seaford or Eastbourne.

I’m one of the only teachers in the region with certified Estill Voice Training, alongside two degrees in music. So, not only do I have a sharp understanding of how the voice works, I have strong intuition for stagecraft and artistry.

EMPOWERING GROUP Voice workshops

Through extensive training in musicianship and a lifelong interest in self-development, I have developed a powerful approach to vocal expression for groups.

The result is the ‘Voice Rise’ workshop which bridges the gap between voice science and holistic knowledge. In a supported group setting, we’ll explore the sonic landscape, in playful and joyful ways.

  • “I was a lifelong non-singer when I first went to Freya for singing lessons. But even during the first lesson Freya showed me this wasn't the case. And after my second lesson I recorded myself singing and posted it on social media. There's still loads to learn, but I'm in safe hands.”

    — Bill, private singing student, Eastbourne 

  • "Freya ran a session for our church singers and was brilliant. We were quite a large, diverse group with a wide range of singing styles and experience between us, and Freya's delivery ensured that there was a benefit for all."

    — Beka, Holland Road Baptist Church, Brighton

  • "As a singing teacher myself, having lessons with Freya has been wonderful. Her knowledge of the voice is outstanding and her delivery is very non-judgemental. Freya's lessons are a safe space for you to explore vocal sounds, make mistakes, and try new repertoire."

    — Sally, Private Student, Seaford

  • “Freya is so incredibly passionate about singing and all things music. She clearly has a gift and so generously shares her infinite font of musical knowledge...There’s not much, if anything, that she does not know about the mechanics of singing. A master class guaranteed!”

    — Louise Channon BCAv, Creative Director + Producer, Brighton Goes Gospel

  • “Freya ran a workshop at one of my retreats and it was amazing - fun and light but also very powerful. She delivered exactly what we needed. Freya’s energy is a joy! I’ll be working with her much more in the future and I'm excited to see what we can co-create together!”

    — Gibby, The Soul Sanctuary 

  • “As a singer-songwriter, Freya has been instrumental with my vocal strength and even helped develop my promotional skills! She is a great instructor and has helped me overcome barriers to better singing.”

    — Sarah, lead singer, torrid; a love affair

  • "Thank you so much for that session, you made it very easy for me to relax and ‘just do it’. I don’t think it’s quite sunk in how much of a momentous moment that was for me lol - defo want to do it again!"

    — Megan, private singing student, Eastbourne

  • "Having a singing lesson with Freya was the best decision I’ve made in a long time. I’m trying to work on my confidence, and this seemed a good place to start. Freya was warm and welcoming and genuinely excited to be teaching. I left walking on air and can’t wait to go again, I’m massively grateful."

    — James, private singing student, Eastbourne
