Leonie van Veen Singing Lessons in Den Haag

Singing Lessons for anyone with a Passion for singing!

Welcome to my page! My name is Leonie van Veen and I am a professional singer (soprano), certified singing teacher and breathing coach in The Hague. With great enthusiasm I share my love for singing and music with others.

Joy in singing!

My singing lessons are all about the joy in singing, the cooperation between sound, breathing and body, and relaxation. The lessons are flexible and tailored to the needs of the student. Together we find a repertoire that suits you. Please contact me for more information or book a trial lesson.

Singing Lessons in The Hague for Adults and Teenagers

I have extensive experience in teaching voice lessons for all levels from beginners to advanced. My singing studio is located in Bezuidenhout, The Hague, and is easily accessible by both public transport and car. The vocal lessons are suitable for adults and adolescents/children from the age of 11.

Online Vocal Coaching

Are you not located in The Hague area? Have you had a very busy day and don't feel like going out of the house, but do feel like singing? Then consider online singing lessons. Online singing lessons are a great alternative to live singing lessons. At my teaching practice, online voice lessons are used flexibly. You can take full online lessons, or you can occasionally use the flexibility of online singing lessons in addition to live singing lessons. I use FaceTime, Zoom and Teams.

What do you work on in Voice Lessons?

During the lessons I pay attention to posture, presentation, breathing technique, pronunciation of different languages, diction, intonation and purity, expression and interpretation of the text. Together we work on these various aspects so that you develop a better awareness of your body and learn to sing and speak flexibly with a free and healthy voice.

Classical, Opera, Musical or Pop Repertoire

My lessons are completely customised to you as a student, so if you have specific questions or wishes, don't hesitate to ask. Together we choose the repertoire, ranging from classical, opera, musical to pop. If you need help preparing a choir part or a song from your band, that's possible too.

Making music together

I have extensive experience teaching singing and coaching singing duos. If you want, you can bring a pianist to the lesson. If you play piano or guitar yourself and want to combine that with singing, I can coach you in that as well. Don't hesitate to contact me!

Breath coach for COPD, Asthma and Lung Covid patients

In addition to teaching singing, I am also trained to help people with chronic lung disease. Using singing, relaxation and awareness exercises, we work together to improve breath control, to reduce shortness of breath and relieve anxiety. Want to know more about this? Please contact me.
