Singing Lessons in Rotterdam - Center
Pop choir, group classes & private vocal coaching in the heart of the city

- “Kate creates a safe space where you can explore your voice without fear. After one term I can finally belt my favourite pop songs!” — (International Pop Choir member)
Is your situation like one of these?
How It All Started (Spoiler: With Panic & Passion)
It began, as many good stories do, with a karaoke video posted without permission and the deep desire to disappear. Instead, a better idea was born: What if there was a place where people could learn to sing — with warmth, results, and a bit of humour?
Enter Kate, Ukrainian-born vocalist and vocal coach with 15+ years of stage experience, a love for real human voices, and just enough sarcasm to keep things light.
Today, Singing Birds is an inclusive vocal studio in Rotterdam Centrum, offering:
-
Private singing lessons with actual guidance, not vague praise.
-
An adult pop choir where you get to move, breathe, and sing away your office-chair stiffness.
-
Kids and baby music classes to build musicality from the ground up.
-
Real-world experience via showcases, festivals, and studio recordings.
What We Offer
1. Private Lessons
45-minute sessions tailored to your voice and your life. Whether you want to belt, blend, or just stop straining, we’re here for the breath, the brain, and the breakthrough moments.
2. Rotterdam Expat Pop Choir
90 minutes a week of energy, harmony, and a little sweat. This is a moving choir — quite literally. Great for your lungs, your posture, and your mood after a long day at the desk. Repertoire ranges from Nirvana to Imagine Dragons, with touches of Billie Eilish rebellion and Bruno Mars groove. No music-reading needed — just ears, heart, and comfy shoes.
3. Pop Choir for Kids (6–11 yrs)
Confidence, rhythm, and creative expression wrapped in upbeat songs (yes, even a bit of Dua Lipa). Parents say it’s fun. We say it’s building voices that last.
4. Baby Music (0–4 yrs)
Gentle musical play with real instruments and big emotions. Your baby may try to eat the drum. That’s part of the magic.
Why We’re Different
-
Modern, movement-based learning — because singing isn’t just from the throat
-
Pop-first approach — Nirvana, Billie, Bruno, you name it
-
No solfège nightmares — we teach by ear & use MP3s
-
Multilingual & multicultural: English-led, Dutch & Ukrainian supported
-
Centrally located: Kruiskadehof 32, 3 min from Rotterdam Central Station

Hello!
My name is Luiz, I'm a music enthusiast and I am writing my own songs.
I am a researchers at the University in Delft, and on my spare time I like to create music.
I record all instruments at home, but singing is definitely my weak point.
I would like to sing with more power and confidence, to be able to give the impact I want in the songs I have finished.
Could I schedule a trial lesson?
Thank you in advance!
Hi, I am interested in beginners singing classes. Let me know if I can have a trial lesson in the studio. Cheers, Malvina
Nice studio! Kate is a great vocal teacher, very professional with lots of experience in different vocal techniques. Recommended!
I have been a member of the Rotterdam Expat Pop Choir since the beginning. A wonderful way to learn how to sing and improve my singing skills. Our coach Kate gives every member individual advice, but every member can use it. Besides the singing, being a member of REXPC is also a nice way to meet other people with various nationalities. And all of this in an informal but very serious way. I really enjoy it!
