Singing Lessons & Coaching

Dale Cox

I specialise in teaching musical theatre and all commercial singing styles, and am experienced working with singers who have trained classically to adjust to contemporary singing function and style.

Technical integrity is at the heart of what I do. I am an experienced, highly qualified voice teacher working with professional performers and highly committed avocational singers. My expertise, research and international training means I am uniquely experienced at teaching musical theatre singers the contemporary styles (pop, rock, jazz, folk, R&B, riffing, country) now expected in musical theatre, as well as traditional belt and legit singing. I am particularly skilled at building sustainable, stylistically authentic voices. My work is technically sound, and I'm one of a few teachers sent singers for post-surgery recovery of skill by laryngologists. Many singing teachers choose to have sessions with me to coach both their own voice and their pedagogical approach.

What you can expect

Your voice matters. Your artistry matters.

Singing can feel free, expressive and healthy — and you deserve to experience that. You'll be supported in developing a voice that feels secure, sustainable and uniquely yours.

You are more than a voice — you are an artist.

Your voice is deeply personal, and learning to sing is about nurturing the whole person behind it. You'll be guided with care and respect as you grow not just as a singer, but as a creative person.

Your artistic freedom is the goal.

Together, we'll explore your vocal possibilities across any genre or style you choose. You'll be encouraged to discover your authentic sound and perform with confidence, creativity, and emotional depth.

Your journey will be kind, curious and playful.

Unlocking creativity can be playful, surprising and full of laughter. You'll be met with kindness and integrity every step of the way as we uncover what's possible for you.

Please note that I work with ages 18+.

Testimonials

From students & fellow teachers

“The only person I would ever trust my voice with 💛 Dale is an incredible teacher with so much knowledge and experience behind her.”

Hayley Wilson
Nashville, USA

“Training my voice with Dale has been one of the best decisions I have made in my adult life. As a professional performer and teacher, I have been in search for someone like Dale for a long time. Her background, training, technique and commitment to excellence balanced with the openness and warmth of her instruction has solidified a trust I have not found with many other teachers. I feel safe to play and explore new sounds, always knowing that I have a true expert guiding me in the direction of healthy, sustainable sound. I leave every lesson with a greater sense of freedom and understanding of vocal function, not to mention truly tangible progress.”

Maddie Tarbox
Washington, D.C.

“Although Dale's studio is in North Brisbane, the weekly drive has been worth it due to the significant and measurable progress in not only my own voice, but the voices of all of my students as well. From our very first lesson, I could tell that Dale's impressive knowledge of not only Musical Theatre but how to teach Musical Theatre singers specifically, was far superior to the tertiary level teachers I had encountered before. Her efficient teaching style not only had me singing through problematic areas in my own voice by the end of our very first lesson — but she has also been responsible for unveiling a stronger, warmer, more free and flexible sound.”

Kristine Denis
St Andrews Lutheran College

“I can honestly say that Dale has been such an inspiration to me as a singer and a teacher, to strive for excellence and to be the best I can be in both these roles, as she does. She is highly respected by her colleagues and adored by her students, and is a leader in the professional voice world, respected both nationally and internationally.”

Kath Williams
Sunshine Coast, Australia

“I started lessons with Dale Cox at the age of 11. I conveyed my goals and dreams of being a singer and over these past 11 years she has dedicated so much time and love into building my skills through individual based lessons. Coming onto the age of 23 I can confidently say that Dale has single handedly given me the competence and endurance to be able to do so — from heavy duty touring and recording, to building my confidence as a musician and a female in the music industry.”

Kath Williams
Brisbane, Australia

“I've been a singer for over 20 years and had a range of vocal coaches during that time, however Dale's instruction has been exceptional. Dale's extensive technical knowledge and excellent teaching ability has made an incredible difference to my singing — all achieved over Zoom calls during lockdown!”
