Testimonials
Best singing teacher I have ever worked with!
Stephie da Silva
Melbourne, 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 so. Ranging from heavy duty touring and recording over the past 6 years, to building my confidence as a musician and a female in the music industry – Dale has been nothing short of spectacular. Truly, a staple in the fearless performer I am today and will continue to be as her guidance is so valuable to me.
Erin Reus

Dale is a passionate, well-informed, dedicated, and supportive singing teacher.
Melissa Forbes
Head of Voice USQ
I have been working with Dale for many years and without her knowledge, experience, and guidance I would not have the voice or career that I have today.
Hayley Wilson
It is a joy to come to my music lesson each week with Dale.
Cece Shabam
I’ve had a handful of teachers in my time, and Dale is without a doubt the best.
Rachel Gobel
Dale will always go above and beyond for her students.
Caitlin Woodward
Dale has given so much great advice, not just on vocal techniques, but also health and performing.
Alicia Poulter
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. She has armed me with greater knowledge of ways to continue to improve my vocals but also provided plenty of tools to help produce a better tone for a range of musical styles. All of which was achieved over zoom calls during lockdown!
