🎤 Why Our Performance Parties Matter (and Why They’re So Much Fun!)

Several times a year at our studio, we host something truly special: Performance Parties.


These low-pressure, high-support events give students the chance to perform a song in front of a small, friendly audience made up only of fellow students.


For some, it’s their very first solo performance — and yes, it can be scary! But that’s what makes these events so powerful.


Everyone in the room knows what it feels like to be nervous, and that creates a really supportive environment. It’s a place where students can challenge themselves, build confidence, and feel proud of what they’ve achieved.


🎯 A Goal to Work Toward


Having a performance on the calendar gives students something clear and exciting to work toward. It brings focus and purpose to lessons and practice — working on memorising lyrics, developing vocal technique, polishing presentation, and building confidence. It’s about more than learning a song — it’s about learning to share it.


🎭 Building Performance Skills


Performance Parties are a great chance to practise real-world performance skills — things that are hard to learn in a lesson alone:


  • Managing nerves

  • Using a microphone

  • Expressing feeling through music

  • Making eye contact

  • Being present and connecting with the audience


TThese are skills that benefit students far beyond music — helping them develop stronger communication, lasting confidence, and greater focus and discipline.


🤝 Encouragement, Kindness & Connection


One of the most rewarding parts of these parties is seeing how students support each other. We’ve added a few fun traditions to make the experience even more meaningful. For example, we sometimes mix things up with random song orders, drawn from a “potluck” — it keeps the energy fun and relaxed.


After each performance, students write complimentary cards to one another — simple notes about what they enjoyed, noticed, or appreciated. It might be a beautiful vocal tone, gorgeous high note, a brave choice, or just the courage to get up and sing.


These little moments of encouragement build confidence, foster connection, and help students grow as listeners too.


🍦 And Yes — Ice Cream!


We wrap things up with ice cream and yummy things, because a celebration isn’t complete without treats! After all the music, it’s a lovely way to relax and getting to know eachother.


💬 Final Thoughts


Performance Parties are about more than music. They’re about growth, bravery, joy, and community. Whether it’s your first solo or your tenth, these events remind us that sharing music — especially in a safe and supportive space — is something truly special.


🎶 Come sing your heart out — we’ll bring the music and the ice cream.
