Bio
My name is Jorgelina. I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by music—especially singing. Since 2002, I’ve studied and explored the human singing voice and its magic with incredible tutors and prestigious vocal schools. I’ve been teaching singing professionally since 2011.
My training includes professional vocal coaching programs in contemporary vocal techniques, as well as a Level 6 Diploma in Contemporary Vocals from Rockschool—the highest qualification they offer in vocal performance. I also hold qualifications in singer/songwriter studies.
To enrich my work as a voice teacher, I’ve also trained in the Feldenkrais Method (currently a trainee ATM teacher), ontological coaching, and other complementary modalities such as Qigong.
My teaching studio offers a functional, holistic, and integrative approach to learning contemporary singing—both in Auckland and online.
Teaching Info
Many people think that you have to be born with a “special talent” to be able to sing. Wrong! Anyone can learn. I can provide you with a personalised voice training program so you can sing your favourite songs expressively and with ease!
My lessons provide a functional holistic approach to singing. This means that you will learn to align your mind, body, breath and singing so you are in control of your voice! But also, I work from a holistic approach in the sense that you will explore all the different aspects of singing – not only vocal technique!
In my lessons, students learn to unblock their voices through movement, breathing exercises, posture, vocal exercises, and inner awareness of energy and emotion. From there they can start working towards their specific singing goals.
My lessons are recommended for those who are interested in freeing up their voice from a deeper level, connecting body, mind and soul in their voice, as well as for people with specific musical goals such as range expansion, resonance, ear training, voice connection (mix) etc.
I also offer training in Contemporary singing exams and diplomas through Rockschool.
At the moment, I am offering:
- Singing lessons for adults (all levels, including complete beginner)
- Voice and movement workshops for adults (super useful for singers, actors, teachers, and musicians of other instruments!)
- Rockschool exam training for kids and teens who have completed Grade 3 or higher.

“I went to singing lessons with Jorgelina because I wanted to improve my breathing technique for health reasons and decided singing would be a fun and relaxing way to do it. I greatly enjoyed my lessons and loved the way she teaches you how to use your entire body and breath. She sees singing as the product of the whole body and not separated and this was extremely interesting and helpful to me. She is also very encouraging and has a great technical knowledge”

'Highly recommended; Jorgelina, the primary singing instructor knows her stuff and really helped guide me through finding my mixed voice. She has huge amounts of knowledge on the science and theory behind singing and approaches lessons in a very structured but still personalised manner. Very happy with my decision to take lessons here.'

'Bruh. Jorgelina is an awesome singing teacher! Super knowledgable, very engaged and 100% passionate. She's helped me a lot. Her methods and techniques feel organic and natural. She moves at your pace and is super supportive about you achieving your singing goals. Would recommend her to anyone with a vagus nerve (thats everyone btw!).'

I have been taking one on one singing lessons with Jorgelina for 2 years now. Jorgelina is really passionate about the voice and how the body, posture and emotions play an important part in helping you to achieve your singing goals. Her lessons are always very relaxed, friendly and you always feel safe to sing without worrying about making mistakes which was important to me as starting singing lessons was quite scary. She has shown to be very caring about helping me improve my voice through her observations and has helped me a lot over the years. She has great skills in picking up on what is blocking your voice from flowing and how to help improve it. I would highly recommend her to anyone wanting to start singing or singers wanting to improve any area of their voice. She is very knowledgeable and continually looks to advance her own understanding of singing and the voice.
