COURSE DESCRIPTION

Lara GoudieBeginning with theory, we will uncover a biblical understanding of the role of the song leader and then incorporate the theory of song leading with the practical side of song leading which will make up the bulk of the course.  This course will cover everything from building confidence to microphone technique to what to say and do, including vocal technique, breathing and posture. There will be ample opportunity for questions, discussion, critique in a safe environment and lots of singing.  The added benefit of a 6 week course is the opportunity for you to put into practice at church on Sunday what you have learned each Thursday and to receive honest, practical advice to keep you moving forward and delighting in using the gifts God has given you.

The course is beneficial for song leaders at any level of experience, whether you are unsure what a song leader is but are keen to try, or whether you have been song leading for years!

What past participants have said...

“Lara’s biblical, level-headed, God-honouring approach to song leading is inspirational. It was great to share from Lara’s song leading experience in various situations. Lara was extremely approachable, and always sought to encourage” – Matt

“I think no matter what level you are at you’ll come away with having learnt something new. I didn’t want it to end so 8 weeks was great!” – Lynn

“It was also really refreshing that it was obvious to me that Lara’s approach to song leading & the issues involved was solidly biblically based.  Personally I would like to have the course run for years (it was such a good experience)!” – Rob

“I would recommend it to other song leaders at my church, and anyone else involved in this area of ministry in their church.  It’s almost essential training!”  - Katrina
