A fresh approach to singing and drama training

Take classes in South Dublin in Cabinteely, Mount Merrion, and online from anywhere!

Classes for children, teens, and adults

 

The Singing and Drama Studio takes a one-to-one approach with students ages 7 to adult in small groups, semi private, and private lessons. Students work toward individual goals in singing, speech & drama, solo acting, musical theatre, and public speaking. Beginners and professionals are welcome. We keep our classes small to maximise one-to-one attention and tailor lessons to the goals of the student. We believe in developing people as well as voices and that singing and drama training are about personal growth in addition to professional development.

Hybrid Model

Our classes can be taken in person or online via Zoom. The COVID-19 pandemic showed that adaptability is key in modern learning. Therefore classes are structured so that students don’t need to miss their lessons if they can’t attend in person. Students do not have to be local to Dublin to take classes online.

What people are saying about us:

“The training I got as a teenager from Georgia prepared me perfectly for my drama school training. Having gone on to study the Estill method, I realised Georgia had already covered all the bases in a way that made sense to me at that time. Georgia understands where your voice is at and knows how to work with that and build on it. She pushed me outside of my comfort zone which made me a rounded and versatile singer and helped me realise my potential. She believes in every one of her students and offers unwavering support.” – Sarah Kelly, Actress

“Georgia Snow is an amazing singing teacher, my girls have been going to Georgia since the age of four and truly love and adore how unique and wonderful Georgia's singing classes are, they skip into Georgia's classes each week and have so much fun, Georgia has taught them so much and built their confidence, creativity and shows them how to find their sparkle and knows exactly what suits them, Georgia works really hard with the girls and the results are brilliant, Thanks Georgia you're FAB Love TJ and Frankie Louise” – Laura Jane, Mum

Niambh has been a wonderful teacher and P has thoroughly enjoyed drama with her.

Thank you again for the wonderful experience P has had with his introduction to different styles of drama . A very big Thank you to Niambh for being such a special teacher. - Catherine, parent.

I have had the privilege of being a student of Niambh Doolan’s for three years now, and I cannot recommend her enough.It is rare to find a teacher as skillful and supportive as Niambh.She has been nothing but completely encouraging, motivated, and passionate. I have learned so much from Niambh; she has greatly shaped the actor, and person, that I am today.As I started to take my acting to the next level, Niambh was there with me. I never felt unprepared. She is not someone who will be passive in your training, she will work closely with you and give you pertinent advice on how to improve - there is no such thing as perfection! Niambh always gave me space to discover what I wanted to do with a character or a piece, and she always wanted every artistic decision to come primarily from the actor. This ensured that I progressed as an artist myself, and I learned how to make educated decisions on my roles. She provides a safe space for failure, which allows her students to try new things, allowing them to grow as artists.

Niambh is a consummate professional, keeping a cool head in a crisis. No matter how frantic rehearsals got, she was always there to settle everyone down, and get all the young actors ready to perform. She has an amazing ability for calming young people down, and easing their worries, a trait which is invaluable within this profession. She is undoubtedly one of the people that I feel has prepared me most for a career within the creative arts. She promotes discipline and self-confidence, and is always passionate and ready to work!

GW, Student. 

Niambh Doolan is a brilliant Speech and Drama Teacher. My two girls age 13 and 10 have been going to Niambh’s classes for the past few years and have always enjoyed them and gained friends along the way. Niambh has helped their confidence grow so much with their reading, writing, literacy, pronunciation, standing up on stage and exams. Niambh has also given them the ability to want to write their own stories and poems with great imagination and always has them well prepared for their exams. Not only does Niambh give the girls the tuition and skills in their classes but they have gained a friend in Niambh that they trust. Niambh’s classes are always buzzing with a great friendly vibe. Niambh is always there to help them with advice and support so they stand up tall and proud in their showcases, auditions, exams and everyday life. Niambh helps them explore and develop their ideas and talents in the right direction while always having fun and lots of laughter along the way. The girls have even benefited in school from Niambh’s classes and as their Mum I have watched them grow into two storytellers that have a lot of fun and magical ideas along the way.

Thanks Niambh, LJ, Parent

Niambh worked with me to prepare for my college auditions for a year. She brought me to a level I never thought I could achieve! I did one exam with the Leinster school of music and drama, achieved top marks and was nominated for an Excellence Award.

Niambh gave me so much confidence and even though it was all online we made so much progress and had a lot of fun.
