"Lauren is amazing.  I have been having lessons with her for a couple of years now. I am a bit sporadic but she jumps right in for the strange auditions I get sometimes. I am an actor but not a musical theatre performer but she gives me confidence to get in that room and go for it. She's a brilliant teacher and my singing has improved no end!"

"Lauren immediately made me feel the most comfortable that I have ever felt singing and within a couple of lessons I was singing in ways that I had previously told myself were simply not possible. Her teaching style is such a special combination of highly professional and casual which creates the perfect environment to truly enjoy learning. Five stars across the board!"

"Lauren has helped me find who I am as a singer, and in turn given me the tools I need to excel. When I went to Lauren I thought I was going to be scared of singing forever and that my career would be limited. Lauren proved that wrong and has given me a confidence that now can’t be taken away. I even auditioned for West End musicals and with the help of her got through numerous rounds whilst still being in my third year at drama school."

"I used to be scared of singing and I used to feel out of control. However, Lauren’s lessons have not only provided me with a sense of control over my voice, but a real understanding of what I am doing, as well as the ability to explore the possibilities of my voice in a completely safe way. The best singing teacher I’ve come across!"

"Lauren’s mentoring completely transformed my voice. Coming from a classically trained background, I lacked power and confidence in my voice, but Lauren helped strengthen my mix and belt to a skill level that I hadn’t thought I could reach. We’ve spent time studying a variety of styles, and she helped me to develop a classic, Golden-Age-musical sound. As well as being a fantastic teacher, Lauren has also been one of my biggest supporters and I truly believe that I wouldn’t have such a strong repertoire of vocal skills without her guidance and support."

"Lauren has honestly made such a difference in my journey as an actor-singer. She’s given me tools that not only help me sing safely and with confidence, but also really connect to acting through song, which has changed the way I perform. What I appreciate most is the way she believes in me and encourages me; it’s given me the confidence to walk into auditions feeling prepared and excited. I’m so grateful for everything I’ve learned from her."

"Lauren is not only a mentor, but a friend and a supporter. From making the what-seems-impossible seem easy, Lauren has absolutely transformed my voice. Not only that, but she has transformed me as a performer and actor. Helping to truly understand the subtext and message being conveyed in songs, and allowing that to be justly expressed and delivered through the performance. Over several years, Lauren has turned me from a very unconfident vocalist to something I can be very proud about. I could not recommend Lauren enough and can’t imagine having her not as my singing teacher!!"

​"Lauren’s teaching style is wonderfully relaxed and down-to-earth. She immediately puts you at ease — there’s no sense of pressure or being put on the spot. Instead, she empowers you to feel confident and capable, which shines through in everything she does.​ I’m deeply grateful for the guidance she gave me and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking to develop their voice with someone who is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also genuinely kind and encouraging."

"Having singing lessons with Lauren throughout college and university was an incredible experience! From the very first lesson, she made me feel comfortable and confident in my own voice. Her encouragement was always genuine, and she has a wonderful way of being both complimentary and constructive. I truly appreciate how honest she is, offering feedback that always helps me improve while also making sure I’m singing in a healthy way. Her deep understanding of how the voice works is evident in every session, and I’ve learned so much about technique and vocal care. Thanks to Lauren, I’ve gained not only better control over my voice but also the confidence to truly enjoy singing again!"

"Lauren is a fabulous singing teacher. She was patient and encouraging through all my classes and I saw real growth in my work. Lauren helped me prep for Sondheim Student Performer of the Year awards which I was a finalist in last year and really helped improve my technique for both my songs!"

“I came to Lauren wanting to diversify my rep. She has gone above and beyond to help me discover new songs and styles that suit my voice. She has even taken time out of her week to record vocal tracks and backing tracks to aid in my learning. I would highly recommend Lauren to anyone I know looking for help with piano tracks or finding rep songs.”

"Lauren is a joy to work with. She provides clear guidance to develop your character's voice, with a collaborative process that brings your own personality to the performance. We worked on voice characters for a children's animation, and the exploration proved incredibly valuable. I highly recommend Lauren and her methodologies."

"When I first began lessons with Lauren, I lacked confidence and had no idea what my true vocal potential was. Working with her completely transformed my singing. She challenged me to grow as an artist while always prioritizing the health of my voice. Thanks to Lauren, I not only became a stronger singer but also gained the confidence to fully believe in myself. I am endlessly grateful for her guidance and cannot recommend her highly enough."

"Working with Lauren was such a wonderful experience! She not only guided me in making healthy vocal choices but also helped me discover a whole new side of my voice that I hadn’t explored before. She supported me in building a solid audition repertoire by introducing me to new music whilst also helping me to perfect songs that I felt ready to do for showcases. Lauren gave me the confidence to bring in both polished pieces and songs still in progress, knowing I’d get constructive, encouraging feedback. I always felt comfortable in lessons, and the warmups and techniques she gave me have become an essential part of my practice. I’m so grateful for her expertise and the confidence she’s helped me build as a singer."

"Lauren has not only helped me with controlling my voice and where to place certain sounds, she has also helped me with my confidence! I feel a huge amount of support from her and have done since I started singing with her in 2018. She’s given me knowledge on the anatomy of my voice she even taught me how to belt when I first started with her! She’s just the best!"

"I have had lessons with Lauren for 3 years and she has absolutely transformed my voice. Through learning about vocal health, correct technique and the science behind singing I am now able to do things with my voice I didn’t think possible 3 years ago. She has also helped me build my confidence, and my repertoire! I couldn’t recommend her enough, thank you Lauren!"

"Lauren really has helped me find my voice and given me the techniques and understanding of how to use it safely and healthily in different vocal styles. My confidence in singing has grown so much since I started with Lauren 3 years ago. Her sessions are a safe place to try new things out, and she is amazing at helping you shake off any pre audition nerves. You can see that Lauren really has a love for what she does, and it’s reflected in the support she gives to you both in and out of the singing room."

"From the moment Lauren greets you at her door, you feel like you belong.  Your questions, concerns, and talent (no matter what step of your journey you are on) are cared for empatheticly, kindly, and practically. She is a treasure trove of information and a joy to work with! I went from feeling like it was too late for me to rekindle my love of music to feeling unstoppable in how much learning could unlock my true potential. Learning with Lauren is a joy. Don’t miss out on it."

"Right from the start, I loved her approach — Lauren explained the science behind how our voices work in a really practical way that then tied into our singing technique. This approach really was a turning point in my vocal growth and also my understanding of voice. On top of that, she’s an amazing musician and pianist, with an extensive knowledge of musical theatre. She was such a huge help during my MA Musical Theatre applications — from vocal coaching and picking audition cuts that suited me, to giving advice on which courses and pathways to apply for. I honestly don’t think I could’ve done it without her! Thanks to her, I ended up getting a place at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama."

 "I first came across Lauren as my voice teacher at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School. I’ve chosen to continue working with her privately for accent training as she’s a gifted coach, she’s across all facets of the voice industry and fantastic to work with! I’d highly recommend Lauren to everyone!"

“Lauren Davies is, quite simply, the most knowledgeable, encouraging, and brilliant voice tutor I have had the pleasure of working with. Since working with her, I have not only improved my technique and sound, but my confidence! It is an immense pleasure to work with somebody who believes in her students so thoroughly that you leave each session feeling energized and motivated for the next one. Thank you, Lauren!”
