The Performance Studios Vocal Scholarships

Calling Queensland's Gifted Young Singers

Opening up opportunities for South East Queensland's Youth

At Performance Studios, our founder and principle vocal coach Lisa Lockland-Bell is encouraging secondary students across the the region of South East Queensland to dream big, with the PS Scholarships.

This Scholarship program is about giving back… Lisa’s 30+year career has enabled her to now give back to the community by sponsoring these two vocal scholarships.  The objective of each scholarship is to encourage local young singers who demonstrate natural ability, interpretation and delivery of vocal performance.

Due to high demand, students will be chosen based on the criteria below with the chance to receive six-months full tuition at the Performance Studios in Loganholme.

Funding for this award has been provided by Lisa Lockland-Bell in an effort to nurture and encourage the extensive talent within South East Queensland.

Program

Year 8 to 12 students who are interested in a career as a singer are invited to apply for this wonderful opportunity. Up to two successful applicants will receive a Full Scholarship of a six-month training program beginning February, 2023.

Following this 6 month journey, the winner/s will walk away with;

  • New behaviours and hard wiring around singing
  • A positive training experience
  • Their own unique and powerful vocal style
  • A stronger vocal technique, including:  Tone, phrasing, breath support, posture, interpretation etc...
  • A greater awareness and relationship with their body
  • Healthy Mindset
  • Clear career path
  • Performance strategies: The ability to impact their audience, from the moment they step on stage
  • Understanding of how to deliver their song and effectively connect with their audience
  • Professional stage craft techniques
  • Understanding of how to release the voice sending them forward in their career.

Benefits

Singing is an incredibly intimate art form: Sharing your thoughts, feelings, emotions and beliefs.

The value of Lisa’s teaching goes beyond just teaching a good vocal technique. Students will learn how to overcome mindset blockages, life challenges and negative self-talk, this then allows the physical, emotional and psychological freedom needed to discover the true voice.

A human voice has the power to move, to change lives, to touch something great in us all and to make us recognise in ourselves what it is to be human.

The experience of participating in a live performance is unique and unforgettable, and should be available to all.
